BANGALORE, India & WARREN, N.J. - Wednesday, January 29th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mindtree (MUMBAI: 532819) (NSI: MINDTREE), a global information technology solutions company, today announced that its BlueLitE Bluetooth® intellectual property (IP) enabled wireless communication LSI - ML7105 chip from LAPIS Semiconductor is under mass production. Mindtree provided the silicon and software IP for Bluetooth® Smart. Additionally, Mindtree collaborated with LAPIS during the entire development cycle making key feature enhancements to help LAPIS deliver ML7105 - industry’s lowest power Bluetooth Smart solution.
The ML7105 series from LAPIS Semiconductor is designed for a new range of devices to enable the Internet of Things - Smart watches, health & fitness wearables such as heart rate monitors, pedometers and sleep trackers. Such Integrated Circuits (IC) designed for diverse devices have stringent needs on code and data size, MIPS and power. Mindtree BlueLitE IP met these rigorous needs and delivered a fully optimized solution. The net result is a 50% reduction in average power consumption and a 2X increase in battery life for typical coin cell batteries like CR2032.
Jayanth Krishna, Director and Head - Short-range Wireless, Mindtree, said, “Our investments and expertise in Bluetooth technology over a decade is helping us consistently deliver breakout solutions for our clients. LAPIS Semiconductor has been Mindtree’s longstanding and valued client during this journey. We are very excited that LAPIS has launched ML7105 to accelerate their expansion into new markets and devices. The ML7105 has already been adopted by a global Japanese player in their smart watches which is a testimony for the maturity of Mindtree’s solutions.”
