Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) has
announced its Bluetooth low-energy test solution on the N4010A wireless
connectivity test set was verified by Texas Instruments Inc. for use with TI's
integrated circuits in Bluetooth Smart and Smart-Ready devices. The Bluetooth
low-energy Tx/Rx test capability on N4010A gives manufacturers and design
houses reliable and efficient test solutions for single-mode and dual-mode
devices.
Bluetooth low-energy technology enables
long operational life with minimal power consumption for applications such as
mobile communications, sports and fitness, health care, security and home entertainment.
Agilent's N4010A supports TI's
system-on-chips and combo-connectivity solutions. TI delivers flexible,
cost-effective Bluetooth low-energy solutions for Bluetooth Smart (single-mode)
sensor applications and Bluetooth Smart-Ready (dual-mode) mobile applications -
including the WiLink family. TI's WL128x solution, which is part of the WiLink
7.0 family, is the industry's first to integrate mobile Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth,
Bluetooth low energy, ANT+ and FM transmit/receive connectivity technologies on
a true single chip.
"TI is one of the first chipset
vendors working with us to validate the new Bluetooth low-energy option on the
Agilent N4010A," said Joe DePond, general manager of Agilent's Mobile
Broadband Organization. "Our solution helps wireless connectivity chipset
vendors expedite design validation for faster industry adoption. OEMs and
contract manufacturers can now simplify their test-case creation, streamline
integration and increase manufacturing throughput with fast, accurate
measurements for Bluetooth Smart and Smart-Ready devices."
"Agilent Technologies helps us to
better characterize our chipsets and define specifications for successful
proliferation of the design throughout the industry," said Ram Machness,
director of marketing, wireless connectivity solutions, TI. "Our customers
can achieve higher manufacturing throughput and accelerate time to market by
leveraging Agilent's expertise in Bluetooth low-energy technology for Bluetooth
Smart and Smart Ready devices."
The N4010A wireless connectivity test
set delivers a versatile multiformat test solution for WLAN a/b/g/n, Bluetooth
1.1 and 1.2, Bluetooth 2.1+Enhanced Data Rate, Bluetooth Audio, Bluetooth low
energy and ZigBee applications. It covers the product lifecycle from
development and integration through to production, delivering the lowest cost
of ownership in a single-box solution.
Bluetooth low-energy Tx/Rx option 109
is compliant with the latest Bluetooth 4.0 core specification for RF test
requirements. The solution simplifies the process of creating test cases and
increases manufacturing throughput with fast, accurate measurements.
