Integrated dual-mode Bluetooth SoC and modules support wireless edge computing applications

Infineon

The AIROC CYW20820 SoC from Infineon provides robust Bluetooth connectivity and includes code examples to get new designs to market faster

The AIROC™ CYW20820 dual-mode Bluetooth® system-on-chip (SoC) from Infineon provides flexible, low-power, and high-performance wireless connectivity for IoT applications.

 

Featuring flexible low-power modes and a large RF link budget, the CYW20820 is supported by a comprehensive Bluetooth software development kit (SDK) which includes numerous code examples for Bluetooth use cases.

 

The CYW20820 SoC, which is compatible with the Bluetooth 5.2 core specification, provides reliable Bluetooth and Bluetooth LE connectivity. It hosts a comprehensive Bluetooth protocol stack which is included in the ModusToolbox™ development environment. The SoC’s integrated microcontroller has an Arm® Cortex®-M4 core with a floating point unit and operates at a maximum speed of 96 MHz, giving it sufficient processing horsepower to support high-performance compute operations at the edge in Bluetooth use cases.

 

For easier system integration, the CYW20820 is also available on an application-ready certified module. The AIROC CYBT-243053-02 module is fully integrated: it features a crystal oscillator, passive components, Flash memory, PCB antenna, and the CYW20820 SoC. It is supplied in a 12 mm x 16.6 mm x 1.7 mm 35-ball surface-mount package. The smaller AIROC CYBT-253059-02 module is ideal for space-constrained applications. It is supplied in an 11 mm x 11 mm x 1.7 mm surface-mount package.

 

The AIROC™ CYW20820 is supported in the AIROC Bluetooth SDK within the ModusToolbox™ software and tools suite.
