World's Most Advanced Semiconductor Chip for Building Smart Home Devices
Redpine Signals has launched the most advanced semiconductor chip for building smart home devices at the Connections Conference in San Francisco. The RS9116N-DBT chipset is already in volume production and has been integrated into products from leading consumer manufacturers. The chipset addresses the most important requirements for smart home devices, including simultaneously available multi-protocol wireless connectivity, ultra-low power, high data performance, high level of security, and the capability to run edge intelligence and offer whole home coverage.
Housed in a small 8.8 x 8 mm BGA package, the RS9116N-DBT integrates an ARM Cortex M4 MCU, advanced hardware security, and multiple wireless protocols at an industry-leading power consumption point. It contains protocol stacks for Wi-Fi, BT, BLE, ZigBee and Thread, and includes automated mesh formation and reconfiguration capability to provide robust, whole-home coverage. The chipset includes a unique wireless wake-up receiver that remains on at a few microamps of current and is ready to wake up the rest of the device only when required, triggered by specific incoming wireless signals.
