San Diego-based fabless wireless semiconductor platform company, InnoPhase announces the availability of Talaria TWO INP1014 and INP1015 Wi-Fi plus BLE5 modules. The new platform combines wireless connectivity and integrated microcontroller for edge-of-network IoT devices that require low power consumption and a direct-to-cloud connection.
The new modules are built on the success of INP1010 and INP1011 platforms, which offer 40% size reduction to provide greater design flexibility. The platform speeds up the development of smart IoT products like connected sensors, security cameras, asset tracking devices, health monitoring wearables, audio speakers and others.
Its unique, programmable, digital radio architecture help InnoPhase’s INP1014/1015 modules provide the industry’s lowest power Wi-Fi connectivity. The platforms include multi-protocol Wi-Fi and BLE5-Long Range for wireless data transfer, an embedded Arm Cortex-M3 for system control and user applications, plus advanced security elements for device safeguards. They can operate in stand-alone mode, in conjunction with an external MCU, or in a hybrid mode. The new miniaturized form factor includes various antenna options and global certifications to exceed customers’ expectations for more product innovation and extended battery life.
“By 2025, ABI Research expects the IoT Wi-Fi segment that can benefit from such low power innovations to reach over 1 billion devices,” said Andrew Zignani, Principal Analyst, ABI Research. To showcase the ease of integrating the INP1014 and INP1015 into smaller IoT devices, InnoPhase developed a new Low Power Sensor Board reference design that enables product creativity and shortens time to market.
