NewLogic sees growth in market for integration of Bluetooth in System on Chip (SoC) devices
The NewLogic BOOST(tm) Bluetooth baseband processor is designed in a modular way, which enables it to be easily integrated into SoC's. This has enabled NewLogic to emerge as the No.1 supplier of Bluetooth basebands for SoC designs. The baseband is also designed to be processor independent and whilst most customers integrate it with an ARM CPU, the baseband can also work with other CPU's and with proprietary processor cores. NewLogic's BOOST(tm) IP family includes the Bluetooth baseband processor, a full Bluetooth software protocol stack and a Bluetooth CMOS radio. These IP elements meet SoC design demands including small size, the ability to be integrated into current and future platforms, and scalability.
"The initial market for Bluetooth IP was mainly to semiconductor companies who wanted fast market entry with standalone Bluetooth IC's," commented Chris Eden, Marketing Director, responsible for NewLogic's Bluetooth IP product range. "These devices were then used in a range of first generation Bluetooth enabled products. Where these products have successfully entered volume production and for second generation products, manufacturers are cost reducing their bill of materials (BoM) by integrating Bluetooth into the main system ASIC. This approach can also reduce the number of memory devices and provide other performance advantages."
