INFINEON UNVEILS THE NEW BLUETOOTH.Infineon Technologies AG (FSE FSE 1. feline spongiform encephalopathy. 2. focal symmetrical encephalomalacia. :IFX IFX - ["Type Reconstruction with First-Class Polymorphic Values", J. O'Toole et al, SIGPLAN Notices 24(7):207-217 (Jul 1989)]. ) (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :IFX), a leading IC vendor in Local Area Wireless, has announced that it has shipped over seven million Bluetooth units as of June 2002. In addition to that, Infineon unveiled its new and powerful Bluetooth Single-Chip, the BlueMoon Universal, a single chip solution, manufactured in a 0.13 micron CMOS-Technology. Due to the minimized die size both power consumption and the total size of a module are significantly reduced. BlueMoon Universal will have integrated USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. , PCM (SSI), UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) The electronic circuit that makes up the serial port. Also known as "universal serial asynchronous receiver transmitter" (USART), it converts parallel bytes from the CPU into serial bits for transmission, and vice , CODEC interfaces as well as an ARM7 processor for Linkmanager and upper layer stacks. An API (application programmable interface) will ensure the possibility to generate embedded hostless solutions. The new chip will be available in two different memory variants, with ROM or embedded Flash. This IC solution is a highlight of the BlueMoon product family, offering access to the latest technology innovations, such as 0.13 micron 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. RF and Flash providing small and low cost solutions for Bluetooth applications. "With shipments of over seven million Bluetooth ICs, we extend our market share in this strongly increasing market," said Hubert Christl, Vice President and General Manager Local Area Wireless at Infineon Technologies. "Furthermore, Infineon strongly commits to its innovative Bluetooth roadmap in terms of feature enhancement and integration by presenting the new BlueMoon Universal." BlueMoon Universal is offered at a price below 3.75 US$ in high volume quantities. First development kits will be available late 2002 with volume production starting in 2003. |
