The Bluetooth SIG just this workweek announced the new Bluetooth 3.0+HS specification for faster data transfers between Bluetooth-paired devices. And, without wasting any meter, Broadcom (NSDQ: BRCM) has announced that its new combination Bluetooth/WiFi/FM wireless chipping has been certified for the Bluetooth 3.0+HS standard.
Bluetooth 3.0+HS offers a new information transference prototype that uses the high-speeding data capabilities of wireless local area network to aid speeding-up data transfers between devices. Under the new Bluetooth specification, devices would brace faster and more reliably over the Bluetooth protocol. Data transfers are then handed off to the wireless local area network protocol to whisk bits and bytes over-the-air at up to 24Mbps (up to 10 times faster than the data speeds that Bluetooth 2.1+EDR tin conscription).
Of course, Bluetooth 3.0+HS requires that both paired devices ar rocking Bluetooth and wireless local area network computer hardware. And that’s where Broadcom’s new InConcertВ® BCM4325 Bluetooth + Wi-FiВ® + FM combo chipping answer comes into play. The jazz band chipping embeds all the components needed for Bluetooth 3.0+HS into 1 convenient chip, devising it easier for manufacturers to integrate WiFi into their Bluetooth-enabled devices. And, the new Broadcom InConcert chip enjoys the differentiation of becoming the first chipping to be certified under the new Bluetooth 3.0+HS specification.
Bluetooth 3.0+HS, here we come!
