HOLTEK New HT45R6Q-2/HT45R6Q-3 Battery Charger OTP MCU

Holtek has further expanded its range of battery charger OTP MCUs with the present release of two new devices, the HT45R6Q-2 and HT45R6Q-3...
The devices include high performance RF and MODEM functions and with their fully integrated DC/DC converter and linear voltage regulator can provide a stable and wide voltage range single power supply.
The devices include both a low power transmitter and receiver, with the receiver having a programmable gain of up to 75dB and a sensitivity of up to -90dBm. Excellent low power operating modes are provided including both Sleep and Power down modes.
Additionally, the BC7602 includes an area of patch memory to reduce the development workload and system cost.
The BC7601 is supplied in a 32-QFN (4mmx4mm) package type while the BC7602 is supplied in a 46-QFN (6.5mmx4.5mm) package type, which are well suited for miniaturised BLE applications.
Full BLE transparent transmission can be implemented by using the SPI serial peripheral interface or the UART universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter, convenient solutions which offer the best present choices for low energy Bluetooth transparent transmission controllers.
