TOKYO -- Hitachi Ltd. and Silicon Wave Inc. here announced that they will team up to develop a line of system-on-a-chip products for Bluetooth-enabled applications. As part of the agreement, Hitachi has licensed Silicon Wave's Bluetooth-enable baseband chip core, which meets the 1.1 standard of the Bluetooth specification. The Japanese company will integrate Silicon Wave's baseband core into its own H8S microcontroller line. The resulting product will be a single-chip baseband processor that measures 15- x 20-mm. The product will include flash or ROM memory with Silicon Wave's SiW1502 radio modem IC. "This agreement with Silicon Wave allows Hitachi to offer a complete two-chip Bluetooth solution," said Kazuo Minorikawa, senior group executive of Microcomputer Division at Hitachi.
