WiLink™ 6.0 single-chip WLAN, Bluetooth® and FM solutions

TI's WiLink™ 6.0 mobile platform is a complete hardware and software offering comprising proven, carrier-quality mobile WLAN, Bluetooth® and FM cores integrated into a single chip. The WiLink 6.0 single-chip solutions are manufactured in a 65-nm CMOS process and use TI's DRP™ technology to deliver low-power, small form-factor and low cost requirements of handset manufacturers worldwide. Both solutions support Bluetooth specification v2.1 + EDR, and provide FM transmit and receive functions to turn the handset into a personal area broadcast device.

TI's WiLink 6.0 platform is optimized to work with OMAP 2 and OMAP 3 solutions to provide complete modem, applications processor and mWLAN/Bluetooth/FM solution for low- to mid-tier handsets.
