An on-chip DC-DC converter adjusts the external voltage supply to the required values. When transmitting, the current draw is only 11.0mA and this reduces to 5.1mA when receiving.<\/p>\n<p>The new IC is typically used in combination with an external host processor connected via an HCI. It can also operate in conjunction with an external non-volatile memory, loading the application software into the internal RAM (76KB) and executing the program using its arm Cortex-M0 CPU.<\/p>\n<p>The TC35681IFTG is able to form an integral part of sophisticated systems due to its 18 General Purpose IO (GPIO) lines and multiple communications options including SPI, I2C and a 921.6kbps, two-channel UART.<\/p>\n<p>The GPIO lines offer access to a range of on-chip features including a wake-up interface, four-channel PWM interface and a 5-channel A\/D converter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toshiba Electronics Europe has announced a new Bluetooth IC for automotive applications will be added to their IC line-up.
