BlueCore™5 provides a single-chip solution that directly addresses the vision for the Bluetooth® industry. Fabricated in 0.13micron CMOS, die size is 40% smaller than BlueCore4, providing exceptional economy and power-efficiency for mass applications. Performance is enhanced, and includes EDR, plus a host of detail improvements such as an improved radio, more memory, and integral DC-DC converter and battery charging circuitry. Supports the next Bluetooth specification (2.1 - due to be ratified early 2007), which will improve usability with the Secure Simple Pairing feature, improved quality audio streams, as well as enhanced security and privacy.
