Atmel and MXCHIP, a Chinese startup specialising in Internet of Things (IoT) technology, are jointly developing an ultra-low-power IoT platform with secure Wi-Fi access to the cloud, enabling designers to quickly bring their IoT devices to market.
This solution combines Atmel’s SMART SAM G – an ARM Cortex-M4-based microcontroller (MCU) – and its SmartConnect WILC1000 Wi-Fi solution with MXCHIP’s MiCO IoT operating system.
The WILC1000 is an IEEE 802.11b/g/n link controller leveraging its ultra-low-power Wi-Fi transceiver with a fully integrated power amplifier. It delivers up to +20,5 dBm output, ideal for connected home devices, and is integrated in packages as small as a 3,2 x 3,2 mm WLCSP.
When combined with secure Wi-Fi technology, the joint IoT platform connects directly to each other or to a local area network (LAN), enabling remote system monitoring or control. For increased security, it comes with an optional Atmel ATECC508A, the industry’s first crypto device to integrate ECDH key agreement, making it easy to add confidentiality to digital systems such as IoT nodes used in home automation, industrial networking, accessory and consumable authentication, medical, mobile and other applications.
