RTL8752C

Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2 SoC

General Description

The RTL8752CJ / RTL8752CJF (hereafter referred to as the RTL8752C except where differences exist) is an ultra-low-power system on-chip solution for Bluetooth 4.2 low energy applications that combines the excellent performance of a leading RF transceiver with a low-power ARM Cortex-M4F and rich powerful supporting features and peripherals.

The RTL8752C supports an analog MIC interface that integrates a sigma-delta ADC, programmable gain amplifier, 5-Band equalizer and microphone bias circuit for voice command application. The RTL8752C embeds IR transceiver, hardware key-scan, and Quad-decoder on a single IC, and is provided in a QFN package.
