Ceva, Inc. has released Ceva-Waves Links, an innovative lineup of multiprotocol wireless platform IP. These IPs are designed to support the latest wireless standards and provide enhanced connectivity capabilities for smart edge devices in consumer IoT, industrial, automotive, and personal computing. Meet the growing demand for chips.
“Ceva-Waves Links’ wireless connectivity IP builds on our extensive portfolio, which already powers more than 1 billion devices annually, and provides powerful and powerful solutions across consumer and industrial IoT applications. We have been able to establish a diverse customer base,” said Vice President Tal Shareef. General Manager of CEVA Wireless IoT BU. “With many customers designing chips that employ multiple radio standards, Links is a natural extension, leveraging our technology and expertise to significantly reduce technology barriers while delivering high performance , provide customized and optimal solutions that provide low-latency, low-power connectivity. Required.”
IP includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ultra Wide Band (UWB), and IEEE 802.15.4 (for Thread / Zigbee / Matter), each certified and integrated with optimized features provides a series of multiprotocol wireless communication subsystems that are easy to use. Supports coexistence schemes and adapts to different radios and configurations.
The Links series leverages the newly rebranded Ceva-Waves wireless connectivity IP suite (formerly RivieraWaves). At the forefront is Ceva-Waves Links100, an integrated, power-efficient communications subsystem IP tailored for IoT applications that features support for Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and 802.15.4 is.
Links100 is an integrated low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/15.4 communications subsystem IP for IoT applications.
