SMK to Demonstrate Bluetooth® Smart TV Remote Controls Based on CSR µEnergy® Platform at International CES 2013
Smart TV Remote Controls Boast Advanced Functionality with Ultra-Low Power Consumption Enabling “Batteries for Life” Operation
CSR’s µEnergy Platform for Remote Controls
The CSR µEnergy® platform, optimized for remote control and wireless keyboard applications, provides all the components necessary to create a Bluetooth Smart product--with RF, baseband, microcontroller, qualified Bluetooth 4.0 stack, keypad scanning hardware and customer application running on a single CSR1001™ chip.
With Bluetooth 4.0 low energy technology, Smart devices can operate for years on a single set of batteries. The CSR µEnergy platform for Bluetooth Smart uses the recently adopted HID Over GATT Profile (HOGP) to enable TV and set-top box control functions without compromising ease-of use and signal responsiveness. HOGP also enables communications between a Bluetooth Smart and a host device, such as that between a remote control and a Smart TV, set-top box or tablet.
