CSR's UniFi Wi-Fi silicon and its BlueCore4-ROM Bluetooth silicon have been selected for use in Mio PDA, the Mio P560. The P560 takes advantage of CSR's UniFi, the industry's highest throughput, lowest power and fastest embedded Wi-Fi technology, to allow for the easy sharing of large files.
The P560 is also optimized for easy synchronization via CSR's low power Bluetooth silicon. CSR's UniFi is the ideal solution for OEMs looking to integrate Wi-Fi functionality into mobile devices. UniFi has set the standard for coexistence with co-located Bluetooth radios and provides superior data rates and audio quality even when Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are operating simultaneously. CSR has also designed UniFi to have exceptionally good throughput on portable devices using the Microsoft WinCE or Windows Mobile operating systems.
Dual onboard RISC microcontrollers and quadruple QoS packet queues reduce the load placed on the host processor making UniFi the highest performance embedded Wi-Fi solution on the market.
CSR's BlueCore4-ROM silicon is a single-chip radio and baseband Bluetooth system for voice and data communications. BlueCore4-ROM is extremely power efficient, requires minimal external components and is available with CSP or VFBGA packaging.
BlueCore4-ROM features Bluetooth v2.0+EDR of up to 3Mbps, Piconet and Scatternet support, as well as the ability to handle extended SCO (eSCO) encoding. BlueCore4-ROM is also backwards-compatible with v1.1/1.2 devices. CSR helps OEMs bring products to market in the shortest time possible by supplying UniFi and BlueCore4-ROM with comprehensive development kits and developer support.
Using the embedded Wi-Fi supplied by CSR, Mio's P560 is able to browse the web, receive data updates, access Outlook email and much more. The P560 can even be used as a navigation device due to its 20-channel GPS receiver. The P560 comes with Windows Mobile 6 including Outlook Mobile, Office Mobile and other Windows applications including a media player, and picture viewer for all your multimedia needs. With a crisp 3.5" colour LCD display and slimline design the P560 is both attractive and designed to fit in the pocket.
