ON Semiconductor launched the RSL10 sensor development kit, which aims to provide an integrated platform for engineering teams to create IoT applications with advanced smart sensor technology, and is known as the industry's lowest power Bluetooth low energy radio.
The kit combines the highly integrated RSL10 SIP with a variety of advanced low-power sensors from Bosch Sensortec. The development platform provides 9DoF detection and environmental monitoring, including ambient light, pressure, VOC, relative humidity and temperature. An ultra-low-noise digital microphone is also integrated, as well as a user-programmable RGB LED, three programmable push button switches and 64kbit EEPROM.
Commenting on the introduction of the kit, Dr. Peter Weigand, vice president of marketing for Bosch Sensortec, said: "We are very pleased to work with ON Semiconductor to develop the RSL10 sensor kit. This compact platform includes Bosch Sensortec's highly integrated BME680 environmental sensor (which detects various gases ) For air quality applications, as well as our BMM150 geomagnetic sensor and BHI160 smart sensor (for high-precision motion sensing). The RSL10 sensor kit combines motion and environmental sensing with the ultra-low power consumption of Bluetooth 5 certified RSL10 Together, enabling new consumer and industrial IoT applications with improved sensor technology and longer battery life. "
Wiren Perera, Head of IoT at ON Semiconductor, added: "The RSL10 sensor development kit is implemented in the industry's lowest power Bluetooth low energy radio and will set the standard for ultra low power Bluetooth smart sensor designs. We are pleased to receive Bosch Sensortec Support to bring the RSL10 sensor development kit to market. "
