Analog interface components provider, Avago Technologies has announced its new System-on-Chip (SoC) navigation sensor, the ADNS-7630 Bluetooth (BT) 2.1 LaserStream, for wireless mouse applications. The ADNS-7630 is the first laser navigation sensor to combine a VCSEL surface illuminator, a stand-alone baseband processor, and a BT 2.1 transceiver, into one package.
The laser mice deliver reliable tracking on various smooth surfaces than LED-based mice. The company’s proprietary LaserStream technology offers accurate and high-speed tracking on all surfaces. This technology allows the laser mice to offer 8g acceleration detection, and a maximum of 30 inches per second high-speed motion detection. The ADNS-7630 sensor improves battery life to above six months, and simplifies the Bluetooth mouse design, thus, helping to reduce the time to market.
The ADNS-7630 laser device includes a RF transceiver, Bluetooth Human Interface Device stream output, a Digital Signal Processor, and an Image Acquisition System. The laser mice supports multiple I/Os that can be configured as LED indicators and buttons. In addition, the ADNS-7630 sensor supports configurable low power operating modes, 4-axis sensor rotation, programmable resolution, and optical and mechanical z-wheel and tilt-wheel functions.
