Bluetopia®+LE — Bluetooth® Protocol Stack
Low Energy Technology

Bluetopia Bluetopia®+LE is a Bluetooth protocol stack that is comprised of two distinct offerings to support Dual Mode and Single Mode Bluetooth devices.

Dual Mode Bluetooth devices...

  • incorporate BR/EDR and low energy Bluetooth support in the same chipset
  • Our Bluetooth protocol stack that supports dual mode devices is Bluetopia®+LE Dual
  • Bluetopia®+LE Dual combines the standard BR/EDR offering with additional support for Bluetooth low energy.

Single Mode Bluetooth devices...
  • support only Bluetooth low energy.
  • Our Bluetooth protocol stack that supports single mode devices is Bluetopia®+LE Single
  • Bluetopia®+LE Single is based on the legacy Bluetopia, but has been highly optimized to work with the tighter memory requirements of single mode devices.
This offering is built upon the solid foundation of the Bluetopia protocol stack that is currently being used in millions of consumer and industrial devices and was first qualified in 2000.

Bluetooth Low Energy Technology Primer

Bluetooth low energy wireless technology is a new extension of Bluetooth technology that paves the way to a vast new market for watches, remote controls, healthcare and sports sensors. It has a potential to communicate with the hundreds of millions of Bluetooth enabled mobile phones, PCs and PDAs that are shipped each year. Consuming minimal power it offers long-lasting connectivity, dramatically extending the range of potential applications and opening the door to brand new web services. Bluetooth low energy technology is essentially the missing link between small sensor type devices and mobile devices.

Bluetooth low energy technology is designed with two equally important implementation alternatives: stand-alone and dual-mode. Small devices like watches and sports sensors are based on a stand-alone Bluetooth low energy implementation and will enjoy the low-power consumption advantages. Dual-mode implementations uses parts of the existing Bluetooth hardware, sharing one physical radio and antenna and will basically keep the same power consumption as classic Bluetooth technology.
