Bluetooth? Core Specification Deprecation and Withdrawal Plan
Core Specification deprecation and withdrawal The Bluetooth Board of Directors(BoD) and SIG want to ensure the highest level of interoperability and quality of implementation. Since the latest Bluetooth specifications are the highest quality, incorporating the latest error corrections and clarifications, on December 19,2017,the BoD agreed on a plan to deprecate and withdraw the following Bluetooth specifications.
Withdrawal of the following on July 1, 2018:
Bluetooth Specification Version 2.0 + EDR.
Deprecation of the following on July 1, 2018 and withdrawal on January 1, 2020:
Bluetooth Specification Version 2.1 + EDR;
Bluetooth Core Specification Addendum 1;
Bluetooth Specification Version 3.0 + HS;
Bluetooth Specification Version 4.0;
Bluetooth Core Specification Addendum 2;
Bluetooth Core Specification Addendum 3 revision 2;
Bluetooth Core Specification Addendum 4。
Deprecation of the following on January 1, 2019 and withdrawal on July 1,2020:
Bluetooth Specification Version 4.1.
The BoD also decided how deprecated and withdrawn specifications will be treated. Effective July 1, 2018, once a specification is deprecated, it will not be maintained (errata and TSEs will not be processed for that specification), and members will only be permitted to complete Qualifications/Declarations that refer to, or use, existing qualified products that use that specification. Once a specification is withdrawn, it will not be maintained (errata and TSEs will not be processed for that specification), and members will not be permitted to complete Qualifications/Declarations for any product using that specification and will not be able to add new models to existing Qualification/Declarations that use that specification. The BoD also decided to cancel the current policy allowing for qualification of new designs under deprecated specifications for a fee of $25,000, effective as of July 1, 2018.For clarification purposes, none of the above changes the qualification status of previously qualified member products. Nor does it change the ability of members to ship products that have already been qualified to specifications that have since been deprecated or withdrawn. Members are invited to provide feedback to the Bluetooth Board of Directors by submitting a BoD Feedback support request.
Bluetooth SIG為了鼓勵(lì)會(huì)員逐步棄用藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格舊版本藍(lán)牙標(biāo)準(zhǔn)并轉(zhuǎn)而使用新的藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格版本藍(lán)牙標(biāo)準(zhǔn)以提高互操作性及品質(zhì),Bluetooth SIG 董事會(huì)于2017 年12 月19 日正式批準(zhǔn)了藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格版本標(biāo)準(zhǔn)棄用及撤銷(xiāo)計(jì)劃。
1. 2017 年12 月19 日起執(zhí)行棄用藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版本2.0/2.0+EDR;
2. 2018 年7 月1 日起執(zhí)行撤銷(xiāo)藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版本2.0/2.0+EDR;
3. 2018 年7 月1 日起執(zhí)行棄用藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版4.0/3.0/2.1/2.1+EDR;
4. 2020 年1 月1 日起執(zhí)行撤銷(xiāo)藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版4.0/3.0/2.1/2.1+EDR;
5. 2019 年1 月1 日起執(zhí)行棄用藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版本4.1;
6. 2020 年7 月1 日起執(zhí)行撤銷(xiāo)藍(lán)牙核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)版本4.1。
Bluetooth SIG 同時(shí)修改了針對(duì)棄用及撤銷(xiāo)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的認(rèn)證政策,比較之前政策有重大更新,以下新政策于2018 年7 月1 日開(kāi)始執(zhí)行:
取消允許以USD25000 購(gòu)買(mǎi)Declaration ID用于新設(shè)計(jì),基于棄用藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格標(biāo)準(zhǔn)做資格認(rèn)證的政策。
藍(lán)牙標(biāo)準(zhǔn)棄用后對(duì)應(yīng)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)將不再進(jìn)行維護(hù)(不再處理對(duì)應(yīng)核心規(guī)格標(biāo)準(zhǔn)勘誤及測(cè)試標(biāo)準(zhǔn)勘誤),不允許新的產(chǎn)品設(shè)計(jì)用核心規(guī)格棄用版本完成藍(lán)牙資格認(rèn)證。僅允許用核心規(guī)格棄用版本創(chuàng)建參考列名和使用原合格設(shè)計(jì)在不做任何修改的情況下完成資格認(rèn)證。
藍(lán)牙標(biāo)準(zhǔn)撤銷(xiāo)后對(duì)應(yīng)的核心標(biāo)準(zhǔn)將不再進(jìn)行維護(hù)(不再處理對(duì)應(yīng)核心規(guī)格標(biāo)準(zhǔn)勘誤及測(cè)試標(biāo)準(zhǔn)勘誤),不允許用撤銷(xiāo)核心規(guī)格版本創(chuàng)建參考列名或進(jìn)行任何資格認(rèn)證,也不允許用撤銷(xiāo)核心規(guī)格版本做列名(無(wú)論是參考列名或資格認(rèn)證列名)不允許添加新的產(chǎn)品型號(hào)和參考列名。
針對(duì)政策的解讀如下:
1. 2018年7月1日起新的藍(lán)牙產(chǎn)品申請(qǐng)資格認(rèn)證的版本只能是4.1或4.2或5.0版本;
2. 2019年1月1日起新的藍(lán)牙產(chǎn)品申請(qǐng)資格認(rèn)證的版本只能是4.2或5.0版本;
3. 2020 年1月1日起以4.0及以前版本完成認(rèn)證的列名不允許再添加新的產(chǎn)品型號(hào);
4. 2020年7月1日起以4.1及以前版本完成認(rèn)證的列名不允許再添加新的產(chǎn)品型號(hào)。
針對(duì)Bluetooth SIG政策的更新STS 的專(zhuān)業(yè)建議如下:
對(duì)于用藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格4.0及以前版本已開(kāi)發(fā)完成但未經(jīng)認(rèn)證的藍(lán)牙產(chǎn)品抓緊時(shí)間在今年7月份前完成認(rèn)證2019年1月1日起新的藍(lán)牙產(chǎn)品申請(qǐng)資格認(rèn)證的版本只能是4.2或5.0的核心規(guī)格版本。
對(duì)于用藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格4.1版本已開(kāi)發(fā)完成但未經(jīng)認(rèn)證的產(chǎn)品抓緊時(shí)間在今年年底前完成認(rèn)證。
正在開(kāi)發(fā)中或計(jì)劃開(kāi)發(fā)的新產(chǎn)品推薦使用藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格4.2或5.0版本完成開(kāi)發(fā)并以相應(yīng)版本申請(qǐng)認(rèn)證,絕大部份芯片商均4.2版本的藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格協(xié)議棧已發(fā)布,成品廠商可聯(lián)系芯片商獲取最新的藍(lán)牙核心規(guī)格協(xié)議棧進(jìn)行固件更新。
以上政策更新并不影響已完成認(rèn)證的產(chǎn)品狀態(tài),已認(rèn)證的產(chǎn)品仍然有效,可正常生產(chǎn)和銷(xiāo)售。
