BlueCore™5-Multimedia External Features:
  • BlueCore™5-Multimedia is part of CSR's latest family of single-chip ICs for 2.4GHz Bluetooth® systems. It features the highest level of integration with on-chip radio, baseband, DSP, stereo codec, charger and SMPS. When used with the CSR Bluetooth® software stack it provides a fully Bluetooth® V2.0+EDR compliant system for audio and data applications. In addition the chip architecture is ready for the Bluetooth® V2.1 specification.
  • The embedded Kalimba DSP core is an open platform digital signal co-processor allowing product enhancing features such as advanced audio decoding (MP3, AAC, AAC+) and echo cancellation and noise reduction. A wide range of 3rd party software plug-ins are available through CSR's eXtension partner program.
  • BC5-MM offers best in-class audio quality, power consumption and radio performance, making it ideal for high-quality mono and stereo Bluetooth® headset designs. The industry-leading level of integration reduces component count and BOM cost, allowing customers to achieve price/performance levels previously unattainable.
