The MC71000 Bluetooth Baseband Controller is a part of the BluetoothTM chipset from Motorola that provides a complete, low-power Bluetooth radio system. The design is based on Motorola's third-generation Bluetooth architecture that has set the industry standard for interoperability, complete functionality, and compliance with the Bluetooth specification. The MC71000 Bluetooth Baseband Controller from Motorola implements the baseband and host controller interface (HCI) of the Bluetooth protocol. It operates with a core voltage of 1.8 V and I/Os between 1.8 V and 3.3 V. The MC71000 is the ideal solution for low-power, short-range Bluetooth applications and includes superior performance features like the dedicated Bluetooth audio processor module and on-chip memory. Debug and production test are fully supported through the joint test action group (JTAG) interface. The MC71000 provides a zero-glue logic interface for the companion MC13180 Bluetooth RF Integrated Circuit (IC), allowing the implementation of a two-chip Bluetooth Class 2 radio. The addition of the MRFIC2408 External Power Amplifier provides a Class 1 solution.
