NewLogic gives Olympia a
Boost to Bluetooth phone
Olympia International Holdings has developed a cordless telephone product based on Bluetooth wireless technology from NewLogic
The companies have signed a licensing deal encompassing NewLogic's Boost Core and Boost Software IP products. Olympia's product is known as the Data-phone and will enable truly integrated voice and data transmission both over the public telephone system and to other Bluetooth enabled devices such as mobile telephones, PDAs and computers.

MAC and modem help in low power design
Cadence Design Systems has integrated Wipro-NewLogic's IEEE802.11a/b/g MAC and modem into its Low-Power Methodology Kit
The Data-phone is based around a custom IC which, in turn, uses the Boost Bluetooth technology as licensed from NewLogic.
The Data-phone was launched at CeBIT 2002, and mass production is scheduled from July 2002.
"Low gate count, radio interface flexibility and low memory requirements of the Boost Core were the decisive features which led to our decision to choose NewLogic's IP", said Mark Barrett, manager of Olympia's R and D center.
"The quality of the Boost IP and NewLogic's exceptional support has helped to shorten the development time for our Data-phone IC to just six months".
"We are very proud to announce Olympia as our latest Boost licensee", said Gianmaria Mazzucchelli, Managing Director of NewLogic's R and D center in Sophia-Antipolis, France.
"The Boost Core was designed for ease of integration and minimum silicon footprint in mind which helped in no small way to meet Olympia's aggressive project schedule and product requirements for the Data-phone".
