Bestechnic integrates market leading Ceva-Waves Wi-Fi 6 IP together with Ceva-Waves Bluetooth Dual Mode IP in low power silicon products targeting smart wearables, smart home and smart audio applications

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Ceva, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEVA), the leading licensor of silicon and software IP that enables Smart Edge devices to connect, sense and infer data more reliably and efficiently, today announced that Bestechnic, a global leader in the design and development of wireless ultra-low power computing SoCs for the advanced smart audio, smart wearables, wireless connectivity and smart home markets, has extended its long-term partnership with Ceva to integrate Ceva-Waves Wi-Fi 6  and Bluetooth dual-mode IP platforms in new Bluetooth/Wi-Fi combo products, including the BES2610 and BES2800 families. Bestechnic has shipped more than 1 billion smart audio SoCs powered by Ceva’s Bluetooth Dual Mode IP to date, and is one of the world’s leading suppliers of smart audio SoCs for TWS earbuds, headsets, smart glasses, smartwatches and smart speakers.

ABI Research forecasts that Wi-Fi 6 shipments will approach 2.7 billion units annually by 2027. This growth is fueled by the adoption of Wi-Fi 6 in various devices, including smart audio products like TWS earbuds, smart speakers, and other wearables. Wi-Fi 6 is designed to provide high efficiency and performance while significantly reducing power consumption compared to previous generations of Wi-Fi. This makes it ideal for battery-powered IoT devices such as wearables and speakers where it complements Bluetooth audio functionality, offering high throughput and low latency which is critical for high-definition audio streaming and increasingly required for real-time data processing associated with embedded AI.

Bestechnic has deployed the Ceva-Waves Wi-Fi 6 IP alongside the Ceva-Waves Bluetooth Dual Mode IP in its recently introduced combo families of ultra-low power Bluetooth/Wi-Fi chips. The platforms incorporate a dual-mode Bluetooth 5.4 subsystem for both Bluetooth classic and LE audio, and a Wi-Fi 6 subsystem for high-throughput wireless connectivity and lossless audio. The highly integrated solution with BES optimized ultra-low power system, is designed to provide Bluetooth level power consumption for a Wi-Fi enabled device. For example, the current of 2.4GHz Wi-Fi RX is as low as 14mA, making it ideal for battery powered wearable devices.

“Our long-standing partnership with Ceva has been instrumental in our success, and we are excited to incorporate their Wi-Fi 6 IP into our newest combo device families,” said Zhao Guoguang, General Manager, Bestechnic. “This collaboration allows us to offer our customers cutting-edge wireless connectivity solutions that exceed the demands for high-definition audio streaming and other ultra-low power wearable applications such as smartwatches and smart glasses.”

“Bestechnic’s integration of our Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth Dual Mode IP in their combo devices showcases the exceptional value of our comprehensive wireless connectivity portfolio in addressing emerging trends and applications,” said Tal Shalev, Vice President and General Manager, Wireless IoT Business Unit at Ceva. “Embedded AI is rapidly making its way into every device around us, and seamless connectivity is the foundation of these devices. With Wi-Fi 6 providing robust data transmission that complements Bluetooth for streaming audio applications, our ability to deliver unmatched performance and power efficiency with our wireless connectivity IPs empowers Bestechnic to set a new benchmark for smart audio devices.”
