Wireless Gecko Series 2 devices are the next evolution of Wireless Gecko devices bringing high performance, low power, and secure solutions to the Internet of Things. Designed to increase processing capability, improve RF performance and lower active current, the devices also provide the highest level of IoT device security. The EFR32BG21 devices are also designed to support Silicon Labs' enhanced security option, Secure Vault. Learn more about Silicon Labs' security portfolio.

EFR32BG21 devices are 2.4 GHz wireless SOCs optimized for line-powered Bluetooth Low Energy and Bluetooth mesh applications, including connected lighting, smart plugs, gateways and voice assistants. An 80 MHz ARM® Cortex®-M33 core provides plenty of processing capability while an integrated security subsystem provides leading security features that greatly reduce the risk of IoT security breaches and compromised intellectual property. With better than -104.3 dBm sensitivity and up to +20 dBm output power, the EFR32BG21 family uses Simplicity Studio 5 development tools, providing easy migration and fast time-to-market with development kits, SDKs, mobile apps, our energy profiler and patented network analyzer.

EFR32BG22 and EFR32BG22E Bluetooth low energy (LE) wireless SoC solutions are part of the Wireless Gecko Series 2 platform. These devices are designed with a strong focus on energy efficiency, offering best-in-class ultra-low transmit and receive power, and a high-performance, low-power Arm® Cortex®-M33 core delivers industry-leading energy efficiency that can extend coin cell battery life up to ten years. Where BG22 allows you to create energy-efficient applications, the BG22E – ‘E’ denoting Energy Conservation – takes this a step further by enhancing battery longevity and supporting designs that eliminate the need for batteries altogether. Our BG22 and BG22E family's are the ideal market leading SoCs for Ambient IoT or Energy Harvesting devices. Target applications include Bluetooth mesh low-power nodes, smart door locks, personal healthcare and fitness devices. Asset tracking tags, beacons and indoor navigation also benefit from the SoCs' versatile Bluetooth Angle of Arrival (AoA) and Angle of Departure (AoD) capabilities and sub-one-meter location accuracy.

EFR32MG21 devices bring high performance, low power and secure solutions to the IoT. Designed to increase processing capability, improve RF performance and lower active current, EFR32MG21 devices are 2.4 GHz wireless SoCs optimized for line-powered Zigbee, Thread and Bluetooth mesh applications, including connected lighting, gateways, voice assistants and smart metering.

The EFR32MG21 family of SoCs includes an integrated security subsystem and devices that can take advantage of Secure Vault technologies. Secure Vault delivers leading security software features with physically unclonable function (PUF) hardware technology to greatly reduce the risk of IoT security breaches and compromised intellectual property

With better than -104.3 dBm sensitivity for both 802.15.4 and Bluetooth Long Range and up to +20 dBm output power, EFR32MG21 provides a robust RF link to ensure reliable communications. EFR32MG21 uses Simplicity Studio 5 development tools, providing easy migration and fast time-to-market with development kits, SDKs, mobile apps and our patented network analyzer.

The EFR32MG24 Wireless SoCs are ideal for mesh IoT wireless connectivity using Matter, OpenThread and Zigbee protocols for smart home, lighting, and building automation products. With key features like high performance 2.4 GHz RF, low current consumption, an AI/ML hardware accelerator and Secure Vault™, IoT device makers can create the smart, robust, and energy-efficient products that are secure from remote and local cyber-attacks. An ARM Cortex®-M33 running up to 78 MHz and up to 1.5 MB of Flash and 256 kB of RAM  provides resources for demanding applications while leaving room for future growth. Target applications include gateways and hubs, sensors, switches, door locks, LED lighting, luminaires, location services, predictive maintenance, glass break detection, wake-word detection, and more.

Our SiWx917M SoC is our lowest power Wi-Fi 6 SoC, ideal for ultra-low power IoT wireless devices using Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth, Matter, and IP networking for secure cloud connectivity. It is optimal for developing battery operated devices that need long battery life. SiWx917M SoC includes an ultra-low power Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth Low Energy LE 5.4 wireless CPU subsystem, and an integrated micro-controller (MCU) application subsystem, security, peripherals and power management subsystem all in a single 7x7 mm QFN package. The wireless subsystem consists of a Network Wireless Processor running up to 160 MHz, baseband digital signal processing, analog front end, 2.4 GHz RF transceiver and integrated power amplifier. The application subsystem consists of an ARM® Cortex®-M4F running up to 180 MHz, embedded SRAM, FLASH, and Sensor Hub. The ARM® Cortex®-M4F is dedicated for peripheral and application-related processing, while the network wireless processor runs the wireless and networking stacks on independent threads, thus providing a fully integrated solution that is ready for a wide range of embedded wireless IoT applications.

Target applications include Smart Homes, Consumer Health and Wearables, Medical, Industrial, Retail, Smart Building and Cities, Asset Tracking.
