Silicon Labs Ushers in the Future of IoT at Works With Developer Conference

While anyone can develop an Amazon Sidewalk device, Amazon Sidewalk connectivity is currently only available to end consumers and endpoint devices in the U.S. The Silicon Labs Pro Kit for Amazon Sidewalk is sampling today, with general availability planned for 2H 2023.

To see how easy it is for developers to get started with Amazon Sidewalk, read our blog " New Solution from Silicon Labs Streamlines the Amazon Sidewalk Developer Journey."

To learn more about Amazon's perspective on this news and how Sidewalk's enhanced connectivity is helping to deliver new benefits to customers and communities please read their blog, " Amazon Sidewalk unlocks new community benefits for connected devices."

New FG25 SoC and EFF01 FEM is the world's most secure long-range smart city solution with the most internal memory in the Silicon Labs portfolio

To help address the growing need for intelligent, connected devices in cities and other municipal environments, Silicon Labs is announcing the new FG25 SoC and its complementary RF power amplifier, the EFF01.

Built to be the flagship SoC for low-power wide-area networks (LPWAN) like Wi-SUN and other proprietary sub-GHz protocols, the FG25 SoC combines a powerful ARM Cortex-M33 processor with the most internal memory of any SoC in Silicon Labs' portfolio. This large pool of internal memory, combined with Silicon Labs' scalable Wi-SUN Field Area Network (FAN) Border Router 1.1, enables FG25 deployments to scale to hundreds of thousands of nodes. Ideal for Smart Cities, this ability to scale will allow city planners and municipal engineers to connect streetlights, cameras, weather stations, smart metering, utility transmission systems, and more together to enable data-sharing and optimization between city services to improve their efficiency, save costs, and offer more ways for citizens to interact with and get more value from municipal services.

Also launching with the FG25 SoC is the EFF01 RF Front End Module. Designed to amplify the power and transmission range of the FG25 SoC, the EFF01 FEM doubles the effective range of the FG25, allowing it to operate with minimal data loss at a range of up to 3 kilometersi in dense urban environments. The FG25 and EFF01 are currently sampling with customers and are anticipated to become generally available in Q4 2022 and Q2 2023, respectively.

To learn more about how the FG25 and EFF01 contribute to creating more intelligent cities, read the blog post " Secure Sub-GHz SoC Ideal for Wi-SUN Smart City Applications".

Secure, Ultra-Low Power Wi-Fi 6

Deloitte's " 2022 Connectivity and Mobile Trends Survey" found that the average US household has up to 22 connected devices. That number is expected to grow. But with this greater density comes additional challenges that Wi-Fi 6 is designed to address with features that provide the capacity, efficiency, coverage, and performance required by users in demanding Wi-Fi environments.

To meet those challenges, Silicon Labs is announcing the new secure ultra-low power SiWx917 Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth LE combination SoC, the first Wi-Fi 6 solution in Silicon Labs' portfolio. The SiWx917 is a single-chip solution that is Matter-ready, includes an integrated applications processor, and offers industry-leading energy efficiency, making it ideal for battery-powered or energy-efficient IoT devices with always-on cloud connectivity.

In addition to SiWx917's Wi-Fi 6 support for high-performance in dense wireless environments, it includes a dual-core architecture, a quad-thread ThreadArch® processor for wireless connectivity, and an ARM Cortex M4F for user application processing. It also integrates embedded SRAM, FLASH, an AI/ML accelerator, an enhanced PSA Level 2 certifiable security engine, and a power management subsystem in a single 7x7 package. The SiWx917 is a fully integrated SoC designed to deliver exceptional compute power, faster machine learning processing, best-in-class security, enough memory to run wireless stacks and applications, and ultra-low current consumption for long battery life. This can help users reduce development costs and device footprint, future-proof their applications, and accelerate time to market.

The SiWx917 is currently sampling, with general availability anticipated in early Q3 2023.
