Fabless semiconductor company Xemics and NewLogic Technologies have announced a licensing deal encompassing NewLogic's BOOST core and BOOST software IP products The deal, the terms of which were not disclosed, allows Xemics to add Bluetooth functionality to its integrated circuits

NewLogic's BOOST IP family includes a Bluetooth baseband processor, a full Bluetooth software protocol stack and a Bluetooth CMOS radio.

These IP elements, when combined with a suitable microcontroller core, permit the implementation of a single chip Bluetooth solution using industry standard CMOS process technologies.

"Our highly optimised Bluetooth integrated circuits offer a generic front end solution to the Bluetooth peripheral and accessories market", said Jean-Paul Bardyn, Vice President of Research and Development of Xemics.

"With NewLogic's Bluetooth BOOST core we can provide a low power Bluetooth solution at low costs", he added.

"With the demand for Bluetooth products gaining momentum, fast time to market is now a critical factor", explained Hans-Peter Metzler, President and CEO of NewLogic Technologies.

"By using a prequalified Bluetooth IP core, fabless semiconductor companies like Xemics are able to substantially cut overall development timescales without sacrificing quality".
