ON Semiconductor's AX-SIP-SFEU SiP solution has obtained CE certification, which means that the device complies with the health, safety and environmental standards of products sold in the European Economic Area.
The device provides ready-to-use Sigfox connections (uplink and downlink), as well as sensors and asset tracking for industrial IoT applications such as building and home automation. SiP greatly simplifies the supply chain and improves overall equipment quality through integration. SiP integrates Sigfox radio ICs, discrete RF matching, all necessary passive components and firmware into a small solution. The RF transceiver has been verified by Sigfox for the RC1 regional network.
The device is packaged in a slim 7mm x 9mm x 1mm conformal coating and uses only 10% of the space of a PCB module-based solution, enabling it to be deployed in space-constrained remote IoT applications. The ultra-low-power design standby, sleep and deep sleep mode currents are only 0.55mA, 1.2mA, and 180nA, respectively, so that the device can be powered by small batteries common in IoT applications.
ON Semiconductor commented on the release of Ryan Cameron, vice president and general manager of the Industrial and Offline Power Division, saying, "AX-SIP-SFEU's CE certification is an important step in remote wireless applications. Since its launch, it has successfully Enables designers to provide the market with ultra-small, low-power, Sigfox-equipped IoT solutions. Since SiP does not require external components and has all relevant approvals and Sigfox verifications, it can significantly reduce design risks and shorten time to market Time and streamline the supply chain.
