Ezairo 7150 SL, a wireless-enabled audio processor From: ECN - 10/21/2015 Ezairo 7150 SL uses the ON Semiconductor's widely-implemented proprietary digital signal processing (DSP) technology and brings wireless connectivity to hearing aids and cochlear implants. The company has provided a complete reference design of a behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid. The reference design includes software, hardware, and firmware which enable advanced wireless features. The control over BLE (CoBLE) function allows hearing aid users to control an array of parameters from their smartphone. The user can adjust the hearing aid’s volume, make program changes, check the battery status, and receive phone alerts (such as incoming calls or text messages). It also features a valuable ‘Find Me’ function to help users quickly locate a misplaced hearing aid. The stereo audio streaming proprietary protocol enables music to be streamed from any external audio source (smartphones, tablet computers, televisions, etc.) through a remote dongle. The connectivity range can reach up to 10 meters in good surrounding conditions.
