Silicon Wave decreases development time with a low-power Bluetooth reference design kit for its second-generation chipset. This comprehensive all-in-one package makes it easier to integrate Bluetooth technology into products. Silicon Wave's low-power Bluetooth Reference Design Kit for second-generation SiW1701 Radio Modem and SiW1750 Baseband Processor is a comprehensive package that enables a customer to immediately start designing a products, such as notebooks and desktop PCs, PDAs, and printers.

Silicon Wave's Bluetooth Reference Design Kit includes circuit schematic, Bill of Material (BOM), PCB layout, component selection criteria and an actual working Bluetooth Specification Version 1.1-qualified, 15mm by 19mm module based on the reference design. The reference module design supports both UART and USB interfaces and is a complete Bluetooth solution designed for low cost manufacturing using standard PCB layout and materials.

The SiW1701 is a fully integrated single-chip radio modem with ultra-low standby and active power consumption, making it ideal for mobile applications. The SiW1750 is an ARM core-based Bluetooth baseband processor that runs Silicon Wave's embedded protocol stack. This complete system solution consisting of the SiW1701, SiW1750, and software provides an unprecedented level of low-power consumption during Bluetooth operation. It also provides maximum data throughput over an extended temperature range with high levels of interoperability and connection reliability at a low cost.
