System Structure
The RTL8763E serves as the primary Auracast controller, interfacing with the audio source from the audio processor through I2S or UART. Additionally, the RTL8763E can independently receive analog signals from a line-in or a physical microphone. Its integrated Bluetooth module facilitates Auracast broadcast functionality, making it a fully equipped transmitter.
RTL8762EMF only provides Bluetooth data transmission function and Bluetooth communication function for smart locks.
Bluetooth dual mode microcontroller implements a Bluetooth transmitter, which is a device capable of wirelessly transmitting audio or other data to Bluetooth-enabled devices. It can be connected to non-Bluetooth audio sources, such as TVs, computers, or stereo systems, through various interfaces. Utilizing Bluetooth technology, it sends the audio signal to Bluetooth headphones, speakers, or other receiving devices.
Realtek's single-mode BLE SoC and dual-mode BT SoC platforms provide robust Bluetooth communication capabilities, integrating mainstream display interfaces and image processing engines within the chip. Coupled with a wealth of peripheral interfaces like SPI, I2C, CAN, PWM, and Keyscan, these platforms enable developers to fully unleash their creativity. The comprehensive product family makes it easy for developers to choose suitable and competitive solutions.
The Realtek SDK includes a complete user interface development toolkit, allowing developers to quickly bring their ideas to life.
RTL8762CKF is used as the main controller for smart locks, only for the functional coordination and basic business logic implementation of various peripheral modules, and does not undertake the implementation of system security policies or running fingerprint algorithms.
Bluetooth dual mode microcontroller implements a Bluetooth receiver solution is capable of receiving wireless audio or other data from Bluetooth-enabled devices. It can be connected to non-Bluetooth audio output devices, such as car stereos, home theater systems, or headphones. The receiver then converts the received digital signal into analog audio that can be played through the connected output device. It can also be connected to audio processors through interfaces such as I2S/UART/SPI to expand audio signal formats and provide additional transmission interfaces.
The RTL8763E Bluetooth receiver solution can scan for wireless audio from Auracast transmitter devices. It also connects to an Auracast assistant device, decoding the broadcast parameters of the selected program from the assistant. The receiver then configures these parameters to receive the specific wireless audio signal from the Auracast transmitter and plays it back through the output device.
The RTL8763E serves as the Auracast Assistant, scanning and managing audio streams from Auracast transmitters. It assists in discovering available transmitters and their respective audio streams, providing users with channel information and metadata to make informed choices. The RTL8763E offers an I8080 interface and an SPI display interface, enabling developers to connect a screen that allows end users to browse, select, and switch between different audio streams with ease. The assistant communicates the chosen channel information to the Auracast receiver and decodes the necessary parameters for seamless configuration.
RTL8762 series not only supports standard SIG Mesh based on ADV communication, but also supports multi-master and multi-slave connection, which can build private Mesh internet based on GATT connection, to actualize the device's AD hoc network function. These two Mesh technologies complement each other and each has its own strengths.

Bluetooth dual mode microcontroller implements a Bluetooth transceiver is a solution that integrates both Bluetooth transmitter and receiver functionalities. It allows bidirectional communication between Bluetooth-enabled devices by wirelessly transmitting and receiving data. The solution utilizes two RTL8763E chips, one for transmitting and one for receiving, and communicates through the SPI interface to establish and maintain Bluetooth connections. Additionally, it can also be used with a main processor over the UART interface, making it versatile for various applications like wireless audio streaming, data transfer between devices, and remote control capabilities.
Practical Application Case
From a technical perspective, Find My tag can support both Apple Find My and Google Find My protocols, enabling the same tag to be located and searched for by both iOS and Android devices. However, in the actual implementation of the solution, how to run the two protocols on the same tag must strictly follow the protocol specifications of Apple and Google.
