Nordic Semiconductor has taken 5GHz radios out of its recent nRF7002 Wi-Fi 6 companion IC, to create the 2.4GHz-only nRF7001. “nRF7001 lowers the cost of the bill-of-materials for designs requiring single band capability for smart home, smart city, industrial automation and other low power Wi-Fi IoT applications”, it said. It “offers all the Wi-Fi functionality of the nRF7002, including compliance ...

Wireless-connected EV battery manager has ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity
Analog Devices has had its wirelessly-linked electric vehicle battery management systems certified to the new ISO/SAE 21434 standard for whole-life cyber-security risk management. It is “the highest standard of automotive cybersecurity engineering and management”, according to ADI, managing security “from concept, product development and production, to operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of electrical and electronic systems.” The company’s wireless battery manager ...
Sub-GHz and 2.4GHz tranceivers in same chip for smart metering
AT86RF215 is the first dual-band sub-1GHz + 2.4GHz transceiver compliant to IEEE 802.15.4g-2012 and ETSI TS 102 887-1, claims its maker Atmel Aimed at smart metering, it supports a variety of data rates with three modulation schemes: multi-rate and multi-regional frequency shift keying (MR-FSK), orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MR-OFDM), as well as offset quadrature phase-shift keying (MR-O-QPSK). This includes the ...
