New Silicon Labs Wi-Fi 6 plus Bluetooth modules for embedded IoT applications
Mouser is now shipping the new SiWx917Y wireless modules from Silicon Labs. The SiWx917Y wireless modules provide ultra-low-power Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) 5.4, and Matter connectivity for a host of embedded, battery-powered IoT devices in smart homes, consumer, industrial, and healthcare applications.
The Silicon Labs SiWx917Y series are fully integrated, shielded modules with a dedicated wireless processing subsystem, an application processing subsystem (MCU), and an advanced security engine. They have a rich set of peripherals framed by an intelligent power management subsystem that includes an antenna (or RF-pin) and worldwide RF regulatory certifications, simplifying development and certification processes.
The SiWx917Y modules’ processing subsystem consists of a network wireless processor (160MHz), baseband digital signal processing, an analog front end, a 2.4 GHz RF transceiver, and a power amplifier. The application processing subsystem features an ARM Cortex-M4 with FPU at 180 MHz, a large, embedded SRAM, Flash, PSRAM, and an option for external Flash/PSRAM. The modules come with modular radio-type approvals for various countries, including the US (FCC), Canada (IC/ISED) and Japan (MIC), and follow the relevant EN standards (including EN 300 328 v2.2.2) for conformity with directives and regulations in EU and UK.
