Dialog Semiconductor's Bluetooth(R) Smart System-on-Chip Drives Xiaomi's Innovative Voice Remote Control Unit (news with additional features)

SmartBond(TM) DA14582 System-on-Chip (SoC) with integrated voice codec delivers high performance, low-latency audio with minimum size, cost and power consumption

LONDON;Business Wire, Nov. 03, 2015 – 

Dialog Semiconductor plc (XETRA:DLG), a provider of highly integrated power management, AC/DC power conversion, solid state lighting (SSL) and Bluetooth(R) Smart technology, today announced that its SmartBond DA14582 Bluetooth SoC is at the heart of Xiaomi's new Mi Bluetooth Voice Remote Control. Xiaomi introduced the remote control unit (RCU) at the recent launch of its Mi Tv3, 60-inch smart TV and Box3 OTT set-top box. The voice RCU, which can be used with both TVs and set top boxes, enables fast, responsive search and control of many of the television's functions, including those involving web browsing and gaming. It eliminates the need for complex controls and menus, greatly improving the user experience. The unit retails for 99RMB.

Approximately 450 million wireless remote controls will ship by 2018, according to analyst IHS. Bluetooth wireless technology will replace infrared remotes by enhancing the user experience through smart features including voice commands and motion recognition, and the widespread Bluetooth presence in consumer IoT devices. The DA14582's industry-leading power saving techniques extends the battery lifetime of Xiaomi's voice RCU which can deliver 500 hours for typical gaming applications or 140 hours of audio recording from the compact unit's battery.

"Dialog SmartBond ICs have already proven their value in other Xiaomi products where battery life is a critical factor, including the hugely popular Mi Band wearable device," said Sean McGrath, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Connectivity, Automotive & Industrial Business Group at Dialog. "Xiaomi is focused on delivering exceptional value-for-money to consumers and our SmartBond devices are important components in helping them achieve that goal." "The integration of a high performance audio codec and support for motion control therefore made the DA14582 a natural choice for its innovative new voice remote control."
