Silicon Labs’ new modules include xGM210PB, BGM220, MGM220, and BGX220 Xpress: xGM210PB features Secure Vault, the ARM PSA Level 2 certified state-of-the-art IoT device security, as well as dynamic multiprotocol support for Bluetooth, Zigbee, and OpenThread with robust and supports Wi-Fi coexistence. Optimized for IoT applications, including connected lighting, gateways, voice assistants and smart meter in-home displays, xGM210PB modules offer up to +20dBM output power and better than -104dBm sensitivity. BGM220 is one of the world’s smallest Bluetooth modules and the first to support Bluetooth Direction Finding. The integrated, pre-certified Bluetooth 5.2 module delivers up to ten-year operation on a coin cell battery, ideal for a broad range of Bluetooth LE applications including appliances, asset tags, beacons, portable medical, fitness, and Bluetooth mesh low- power nodes. MGM220 is a low-power, low-cost ideal for eco- friendly, ultra-low-power IoT products including include lighting controls, building and industrial automation sensors. The modules are ideal for Zigbee Green Power and energy harvesting applications. BGX220Xpress includes an onboard Bluetooth stack, Xpress command interface and pre-programmed cable replacement firmware to deliver a serial to Bluetooth LE solution needing no firmware development. The modules are ideal for industrial applications including human-machine interface (HMI) devices, addressing size, safety, and environmental challenges. The modules are supported in the free Silicon Labs Simplicity Studio 5, a fully integrated development environment, featuring comprehensive software stacks, application demos and mobile apps, along with premium features, such as network analyzer and patented energy profiler. Customers are also able to further accelerate wireless development by taking advantage of simple APIs from Silicon Labs Xpress modules. Samples, production quantities and development kits for xGM210PB, BGM220, MGM220 and BGX220 Xpress are available now.

Melexis unveils the next generation of its market-leading motorcycle fuel pump controller MLX80302 enables Indian market transition to the BS-6 environmental standard Melexis, a global microelectronics engineering company, announces the introduction of the most powerful and cost-efficient version of its market-leading motorcycle fuel pump controller, helping manufacturers comply with tightening environmental regulation, including the BS-6 emission standards in India. The MLX80302 is a three-phase BLDC motor controller IC with a peak driving capability of 2.6 A. It is ideally suited for automotive, and motorcycle pump applications up to 20 W on the 13 V battery voltage. Additionally, it is also a good fit for a wide range of home appliances and industrial pump applications up to 40 W on a 24 V regulated supply. The controller boasts a wide junction temperature operating range of -40 °C to +150 °C. With its 0.25 Ohm drivers, the MLX80302 features a powerful monolithic pump controller in an SOIC8 footprint. Requiring only reverse polarity protection and a single decoupling capacitor, it is a perfect fit for integration into a pump connector. The MLX80302 features extensive integrated protection including locked rotor, over temperature, overvoltage, short circuit and current limiting. The motor control operation has been validated for robust operation with remote motor location in very noisy environments, with tests including BCI, and ignition coil noise injection. Its very fast start-up (down to 50 ms) is robust under load- and no-load conditions.
