Qualcomm QCC305x Bluetooth SoC series launched with Audio sharing, Adaptive ANC and more to TWS earbuds
Qualcomm has announced its newest Bluetooth Audio SoC for truly wireless earbuds, called the Qualcomm QCC305x. These new SoCs come with various new technologies such as Audio sharing, Voice service support, Qualcomm aptX Adaptive, and more. With the launch of the QCC305x SoC series, Qualcomm is attempting to bring many of the premium audio features from high-end TWS earbuds to the mid-tier and more affordable levels.
It will soon support the upcoming Bluetooth Low Energy Audio standard, which will enable a new highly-requested feature called Audio sharing. QCC30xx SoCs offer powerful multi-core processing, designed to support flexible innovation, without extended development cycles. The SoC architecture includes two dedicated, configurable 32-bit application processor subsystems and up to two Qualcomm Kalimba DSPs. A feature-rich audio development kit (ADK) and enhanced development tools are available to help reduce the time needed for commercialization.
