CSR is easing the challenges engineers face when designing Bluetooth® enabled devices, in a multitude of ways. By working closely with our test partners we help take the hard work out of the test phase. CSR has created a program with a comprehensive range of test services partners, categorized into three types:
. Test
house
. Test
equipment
. Production
test partners
Our test house partners provide a complete solution for Bluetooth testing, qualification, certification and approval:
- Bluetooth test for full radio conformance
- Bluetooth Qualification Test Facility (BQTF) Services having numerous systems available for qualification testing
- Bluetooth protocol and profile testing
- Bluetooth interoperability testing against Blue Unit devices
- Bluetooth interoperability profile testing against other Bluetooth products
- Bluetooth Qualification Body (BQB) Services give advice on the qualification process from initial design phase and the compilation of compliance folders, through to formal placing of qualified products on the Bluetooth Qualified Products Listing
- Regulatory testing according to R&TTE directive, including UKAS accredited EMC, radio performance, FCC and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing
- R&TTE certification by our Notified Body
- Regulatory testing according FCC (US) and IC (CAN)
All Bluetooth products must meet the defined product qualification requirements and be listed on the Bluetooth Qualified Products List (BQPL) before product launch and usage.
Test equipment partner program
The test equipment partner program ensures that the CSR integrated circuits and test equipment inter-operate, allowing engineers to focus on their designs. By working closely with our test partners we take the hard work out of the test phase.
Our customers are able to reliably use our partners' test equipment to verify that their application is working as designed, have their product qualified by the Bluetooth SIG, and be ready to manufacture the end product.
By providing equipment, services and solutions together, we help customers to bring their products to market efficiently and effectively.
Production test partner program
Several worldwide electronics manufacturing services (EMS) providers have joined the program. They provide a complete array of value-added services, ranging from pre-manufacturing and manufacturing to fufillment. By forming these close alliances, CSR and its partners help OEMs to achieve faster time-to-market and significant cost savings, along with many other beneficial advantages of outsourcing.
