ST-Ericsson Launches 45nm Single-chip Solution for Bluetooth, FM and GPS

(Top News, 04 Sep 2009 )

ST-Ericsson has released two new highly-integrated connectivity solutions – a single-chip multimode Bluetooth, GPS and FM combination, and an ultra-low power Wireless LAN device. The CG2900 is the world’s smallest Bluetooth, GPS and FM combination chip to offer best-in-class audio quality, high-precision GPS services and improved battery life on mobile phones when using Bluetooth, GPS and FM applications. Suited for mass-adoption in smartphones, feature phones and high-volume low-end handsets, the CG2900 is a tightly integrated single-chip device. It delivers an unparalleled experience for consumers using multiple connectivity features simultaneously.

ST-Ericsson has also launched an ultra-low power IEEE 802.11n WLAN device, the CW1100, to deliver high-speed and reliable internet experience to consumers. The CW1100’s power efficiency significantly reduces power consumption, which has been the biggest challenge with WLAN on mobile phones. Consumers will no longer need to switch off WLAN when it is not in use. Available as a standalone product, the CW1100 also fits perfectly with the CG2900, using streamlined interfacing techniques to offer handset manufacturers a comprehensive, ready-to-market connectivity solution.

ST-Ericsson’s CG2900 and CW1100 boast the industry’s smallest footprint in their category – enabling sleek and thin designs and lower bill-of-material costs for manufacturers.
