Infineon Technologies announced the new AIROC CYW43022 ultra-low power, dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth combo, expanding its broad portfolio of existing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth products.
The CYW43022 ultra-low power architecture delivers industry-leading performance with up to 65% reduction in power usage during “deep sleep”, significantly extending battery life for applications such as smart locks, smart wearables, IP cameras and thermostats.
“As a leader in Wi-Fi and IoT technologies, Infineon has developed an innovative approach to maximizing battery life in some of the most energy-sensitive consumer devices,” said Sivaram Trikutam, Vice President of Wi-Fi Product Line from Infineon.
The Infineon AIROC CYW43022 ultra-low power, dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3 combo includes Wi-Fi network offloads and a built-in Bluetooth stack that reduces power demands on host processors.
“By optimizing sleep power for battery-operated IoT devices, consumers can now enjoy longer battery life compared to competing solutions,” added Trikutam. “With the industry’s lowest power consumption for a combination of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, this new solution enables more devices to be smarter, more connected and more versatile in a wider range of environments.”
To support projects with smaller antennas or projects that require greater range, the combo includes a Class 1 Bluetooth PA with +18 dBm transmit power. Secure boot with firmware image authentication that requires signed Infineon firmware and protects against hacker attacks.
Infineon's AIROC wireless products, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth combinations, have sold more than a billion devices and are the right choice for IoT solutions. The broad portfolio includes high-performance, reliable and ultra-low power products that deliver reliable performance.
