“Ceva-Waves Links200 [is] the first turn-key multi-protocol platform IP to support next generation Bluetooth HDT,” claimed Ceva. “High Data Throughput mode more than doubles the speed of traditional Bluetooth, delivering up to 7.5Mbit/s.”
The IP is aimed at loss-less multi-channel audio streaming for wireless earbuds, headsets, smartwatches, smart speakers, TV wireless speakers, gaming peripherals, and car audio systems.
“For example, 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound systems will be able to provide home entertainment audio experiences, thanks to the multi-channel support enabled by Bluetooth HDT,” said Ceva.
The package pre-integrates necessary hardware, software and radio components, including RF, modem, controller, software stacks and profiles, for a radio compliant with Bluetooth 6.0, with Classic Audio, LE Audio and Auracast Broadcast Audio streaming.
Localisation features include direction finding (AoA/AoD) and channel sounding ranging, and a low latency mode for gaming supports up to 8kHz refresh.
