SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 21,
2018 /PRNewswire/ -- QuickLogic Corporation (NASDAQ:
QUIK), a developer of ultra-low power programmable sensor
processing, embedded FPGA IP, display bridge and programmable logic
solutions, today announced that its EOS™ S3 voice and sensor
processing platform has been integrated with the CSR8670 and
CSR8675 Qualcomm® Bluetooth Audio system-on-chips (SoCs) to help
deliver ultra-low power Alexa wake word support. QuickLogic
developed this new solution using the software development kit made
available by the Qualcomm® eXtension program.
Hearable and wearable Bluetooth device makers now have a quick
and easy way to add end-to-end support for Alexa to their designs
using the QuickLogic and Qualcomm solutions. The EOS S3 is the
industry's lowest power always-on and listening wake-word solution.
QuickLogic's new reference design enables customers to add full
Alexa functionality with performance, cost and time-to-production
advantages over competing solutions. In addition, battery powered
solutions can benefit from the extremely low power consumption of
the EOS S3 resulting in the longest possible battery life.
"We continue to see a high demand for adding Alexa voice command
support to existing and new products," said Brian Faith, QuickLogic's president and
CEO. "We are proud to collaborate with Qualcomm as their
Bluetooth Audio SoCs are a popular solution for many customers
building wireless audio products and now those same customers can
easily add ultra-low power Alexa wake word support through our
reference design."
