CSR and Open Interface Partnership Delivers Bluetooth Version 1.1 Qualified Solution For PC OEM Market; Collaboration That Enabled First Bluetooth Notebook Expands.Business Editors, High-Tech Writers RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 18, 2001 CSR (1) (Customer Service Representative) A person who handles a customer's request regarding a bill, account changes or service or merchandise ordered. Agents in call centers are known as CSRs. See call center. (Cambridge Silicon Radio) and Open Interface North America Open Interface North America OINA) is a privately owned embedded Bluetooth software provider based in Seattle, Washington and was founded in 2000. The company is known for highly efficient, scalable, portable and quality audio software. today announced their respective Bluetooth version 1.1 qualified solutions. CSR's lower layer protocol stack The set of protocols used in a communications network. A protocol stack is a prescribed hierarchy of software layers, starting from the application layer at the top (the source of the data being sent) to the data link layer at the bottom (transmitting the bits on the wire). and Open Interfaces Windows Bluetooth stack A Bluetooth stack refers to an implementation of the Bluetooth protocol stack. Bluetooth stacks can be roughly divided into two:
The effectiveness of the combined solution of CSR's BlueCore(TM) Bluetooth silicon and Open Interface's BlueMagic(TM) protocol stack has allowed vendors such as NEC (NEC Corporation, Tokyo, www.nec.com, www.necus.com) An electronics conglomerate known in the U.S. for its monitors. In Japan, it had the lion's share of the PC market until the late 1990s (see PC 98). NEC was founded in Tokyo in 1899 as Nippon Electric Company, Ltd. and Fujitsu to bring Bluetooth enabled Windows notebook PC's to market ahead of the competition. This proven combination is now Bluetooth Version 1.1 qualified and being readied for integration in new PC products. "The combined CSR/Open Interface solution is tested, proven, and shipping in products today," commented Eric Janson, vice president of sales, marketing and application engineering at CSR. "We look forward to expanding our relationship with Open Interface to deliver Bluetooth Version 1.1 qualified solutions to our joint customers." Greg Burns

The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and market. This is clearly a partnership that works for customers." About CSR CSR (Cambridge Silicon Radio) specializes in providing single-chip radio devices to the global market for short-range radio communications, including Bluetooth. The company's mission is to create the most highly integrated radio devices available, fabricated using standard CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. technology, to provide its customers with the low cost of ownership of high quality digital radio. CSR was the first company to offer a fully integrated 2.4GHz radio, baseband and microcontroller Bluetooth solution on one CMOS chip, with its BlueCore(TM)01. CSR's BlueCore01 is the world's first true single-chip Bluetooth solution. Together with external Flash ROM Another term for flash memory. Since flash chips can be updated over and over, the ROM (read only) designation is somewhat misleading. "ROM" is used more to mean not volatile than not changeable. See flash memory. Flash ROM - Flash Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory containing the CSR Bluetooth software stack (1) A stack that is implemented in memory rather than in hardware registers. See stack. (2) A generic reference to a set of system programs or a set of application programs that form a complete system. See stack. , it provides a fully compliant Bluetooth solution for data and voice communications. Combined with our upper layer stack CSR is able to offer a one-stop-shop for a complete Bluetooth end-to-end solution. The design is optimised to require very few external RF components to facilitate a rapid design of the motherboard, and therefore reduce time to market and lower overall cost. CSR is headquartered in Cambridge, UK, with offices in Richardson, Texas, Singapore and Denmark. More information about CSR can be found at www.csr.com. About Open Interface North America Open Interface Inc, established in Japan 1992 was one of the first companies to develop and introduce Bluetooth technology in the Japanese market. Open Interface Inc's Bluetooth technology assets were acquired by subsidiary Open Interface North America in 2000. Based in Seattle, Washington, Open Interface North America drives all ongoing Bluetooth development, support, sales and marketing efforts. An associate member of Bluetooth SIG, Open Interface has a complete qualified Bluetooth protocol stack suite and software development tools for OEMs and Bluetooth application developers. Open Interface was the first company to have its Bluetooth software integrated and shipped by a PC OEM in a standard product. Open Interface North America's website can be found at www.oi-us.com. |
