Silicon Labs has expanded its portfolio of industry-leading RF performance Bluetooth low energy solutions for IoT developers. The company provides performance, flexibility and packaging options for Bluetooth 5.2, including SoC, SiP, modules and NCP. The company's IoT solutions provide top-notch performance and cutting-edge security, and are optimized for power efficiency, size, cost, and turnkey simplicity.
The company has expanded its Bluetooth low energy product portfolio by launching the BGM220S. The device is only 6mm x 6mm, which is one of the smallest Bluetooth SiPs in the world. It provides an ultra-compact, low-cost, long-battery-life SiP module, and adds a turnkey Bluetooth connection for particularly small products. Also launched at the same time is BGM220P, which is a slightly larger PCB model, optimized for wireless performance, and has a better link budget to achieve better range. These devices are one of the first Bluetooth modules to support Bluetooth direction finding, and can provide up to ten years of battery life through a button battery.
"Our Bluetooth low energy product portfolio demonstrates Silicon Labs' unique ability to provide a complete set of wireless solutions with top-notch performance, power, size, and security features," said Matt Johnson, Silicon Labs' senior vice president of IoT. Over the years, Silicon Labs has established a successful record of success in many IoT wireless fields including Mesh, Multiprotocol, Proprietary, Thread, Zigbee and Z-Wave. Now, we are concentrating our wireless expertise to establish a leading position in the Bluetooth low energy field, and our Secure Bluetooth 5.2 SoC has been highly recognized in the market. BG22 was released in January and is currently experiencing the highest level of product adoption and opportunity pipeline growth we have seen, and it has a wide range of applications in consumer, medical and smart home products.
