Gear Radio Introduces Complete Bluetooth 5 Low-Power IP Solution for IoT SoC Applications
Hsinchu, Taiwan -- Nov 21, 2018 - Gear Radio Electronics Corp., Asia’s leading RF IP design company, has announced the launch of its complete Bluetooth 5 low-power IP, which includes the link layer and the use of UMC’s 55nm ultra-low power embedded flash memory technology PHY. Gear Radio’s Bluetooth solution complies with the latest Bluetooth 5 specification, including Long Range. The link layer features advanced data encryption and random number generators for authenticated secure wireless connections, with a PHY output power rating of up to 6 - 10 dBm to achieve a wider coverage area. The RF IP area is 0.6 mm2 and its low power design includes world-class anti-interference indicators to serve IoT System-on-Chip (SoC) applications, providing customers with smaller area and lower power consumption to help chip designers integrate wireless connectivity systems for applications such as wearables and smart homes.
T.H. Lin, director of IP Development and Design Support Division at UMC, said, “To add high-efficiency wireless connectivity to customers’ IoT products, we need reliable, compact and low-power Bluetooth IP solutions. We are pleased to cooperate with Gear Radio on this newly released Bluetooth 5 low-power IP solution to provide customers with better performance, lower power consumption, and easy integration into customer SoC designs. In addition, UMC provides a clear migration path for future product evolution, from our 55nm platform to ultra-low power consumption technologies on 40nm, 28nm and 22nm.”
