A fully-integrated single-chip SOC for Bluetooth

Abstract

A 0.25 /spl mu/m CMOS IC contains all analog and digital electronics required for a point-to-multipoint Bluetooth node. The circuit includes RF front-end and digital baseband processor, microprocessor and flash memory with software stack. The 41 mm/sup 2/ die has 15 dB noise figure and 2 dBm maximum transmitter output, and consumes 125 mW at 2.5 V during receive.
