Mid-Autumn Festival, symbolizing family reunion with the full moon, is not only a day for family gatherings but also a time when various delicacies delight our taste buds, such as mooncakes with various fillings, pastries, and special dishes that make our mouths water…
With advancements in technology, the kitchen tools for making these delicacies are becoming increasingly smart. While you might not typically think of kitchen utensils needing wireless functionality, it is easy to understand how monitoring and controlling cooking with a smartphone while working can be very practical. For example, a connected slow cooker.
Many of the technologies behind “smart interconnected” devices are based on Bluetooth Low Energy: a wireless protocol that is popular due to its inherent low power consumption, standardized profiles, and availability in most smartphones.
From smart appliances to power tools, the Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly expanding into new application areas, bringing exciting new features and levels of control to consumers.
The key to expanding IoT into these new markets is ease of development.
Even the most experienced hardware engineers find system-level RF design to be a complex process that requires knowledge of antenna selection, network matching, and PCB layout. Once an application is designed, it must be tested and submitted to comply with international wireless standards such as the FCC in the US, IC in Canada, and KC in Japan.
The RSL 10 SIP module is a complete Bluetooth Low Energy solution, certified by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), containing all necessary components in a compact package. The RSL 10 SIP features a fully integrated antenna, eliminating the need for any additional RF design, significantly reducing time to market.
The RSL10 series achieves speeds of 2 megabits per second (Mbps) with the industry’s lowest power consumption thanks to Bluetooth 5, providing advanced wireless functionality without compromising battery life. The RSL 10 consumes only 62.5 nanowatts (nW) in deep sleep mode and has a peak receive power consumption of just 7 milliwatts (mW). The high energy efficiency of the RSL10 has recently been validated by EEMBC ULPMark™, making it the first device in history to break 1,000 ULP Marks, with a Core Profile score more than double that of previous industry leaders.
This one-stop solution requires no additional RF considerations or certifications, saving significant production design time and costs. By combining best-in-class power efficiency, advanced wireless functionality, and ease of design integration; the RSL 10 SIP will help realize the next generation of smart interconnected devices.
