Z-Focus Demonstrates Bluetooth Low Energy Connectivity on Multiple Platforms at Bluetooth AHM

April 21, 2010 - PRLog -- PALATINE, IL. – April 21, 2010 -- Z-Focus Technology Group, an independent software stack provider for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), will demonstrate BLE connectivity enabled by their software stack running on the Freescale JM FlexisTM and ARM CortexTM-M0 platforms at the Bluetooth All Hands Meeting in Seattle, WA on April 21, 2010.

The Z-Focus BLE-ZTM, the world’s first portable single-mode BLE stack, is optimized for resource and memory constrained applications, running on just 16-32K of FLASH, depending on the required functionality. Z-Focus also utilizes a flexible abstraction layer, allowing the BLE-ZTM stack to be easily migrated to any microcontroller based system. The BLE-ZTM stack, when coupled with a BLE controller like EM Microelectronics’ EM9301 chip, can bring BLE functionality to almost any MCU based system.  

BLE is the latest enhancement to the Bluetooth wireless technology core specification aimed at ultra low power applications in the healthcare, fitness, security and home entertainment industries. Its main advantage is enabling very low battery use and utilization of Bluetooth in coin-cell powered devices.

“BLE will be present in a billion cell phones within a few years, which opens extraordinary opportunities to enable new applications for many devices that are currently lacking Bluetooth connectivity due to power constrains.” stated Mikhail Galeev, president of Z-Focus. “First introduced on the CortexTM-M0 based Triad MochaTM family SoC and now available on Freescale FlexisTM MCU family, the Z-Focus BLE-ZTM stack proves its versatility and minimum required integration effort. This is exactly what will help our customers get their products to the market first.”
