Silicon Labs Strengthens Industry’s Leading Bluetooth Portfolio, Delivering Unmatched Performance & Flexibility for IoT Devices
Silicon Labs expanded its Bluetooth Low Energy portfolio today with the launch of the BGM220S. At just 6x6 mm, the BGM220S is one of the world's smallest Bluetooth SiPs. It provides an ultra-compact, low-cost, long battery life SiP module that adds turnkey Bluetooth connectivity to extremely small products. Also launching is the BGM220P, a slightly larger PCB variant optimized for wireless performance along with a better link budget for greater range. BGM220S and BGM220P are among the first Bluetooth modules to support Bluetooth Direction Finding, all while delivering up to ten-year battery life from a single coin cell.
