The DA16200 from Dialog Semiconductor is a Wi-Fi SoC which is designed for battery-powered IoT devices. It consists of an integrated 802.11b/g/n radio (PHY), a baseband processor, a media access controller (MAC), on-chip memory, and a host networking application processor. This SoC enables full offload capabilities by running the entire networking stack on a chip so that no external network processor, CPU, or microcontroller is required.
The DA16200 also enables ultra-low-power transmitting and receiving modes when the SoC needs to be awake to exchange information with other devices. It is based on an ARM Cortex-M4 processor and requires a DC supply of 3.3 V for operation. This Wi-Fi certified device supports 12-bit SAR ADC, UART, PWM, I2C, I2S, GPIO, JTAG, and SWD interfaces and has an in-built hardware crypto engine for advanced security. It is available in a QFN package that measures 6 x 6 x 0.4 mm and is ideal for use indoor locks, thermostats, sensors, pet trackers, asset trackers, sprinkler systems, connected lighting, video cameras, video doorbells, wearables, and other IoT devices.
