Infineon Expands AIROC Wi-Fi 6/6E with CYW5591x Connected Microcontrollers for IoT Applications
Infineon has enhanced its AIROC Wi-Fi 6/6E with the introduction of the CYW5591x connected microcontrollers. These new microcontrollers combine Wi-Fi 6/6E and Bluetooth Low Energy 5.4 capabilities with a secure and versatile MCU, enabling customers to create cost-effective, energy-efficient, and compact products for various IoT applications such as smart homes, industrial settings, wearables, and more. The platform includes ModusToolbox software, RTOS and Linux host drivers, a fully validated Bluetooth stack, sample code examples, Matter software support, and access to Infineon’s global partner network to help customers bring their products to market quickly.
Infineon, a prominent IoT company that has deployed over a billion Wi-Fi devices globally, is dedicated to advancing decarbonization and digitalization through their energy-efficient solutions that enable products to connect to the cloud. According to Sivaram Trikutam, Vice President of Wi-Fi Products at Infineon Technologies, their AIROC CYW5591x Connected MCU family offers industry-leading wireless performance and low power consumption, making it easy for developers to create top-tier IoT products.
This versatile group of devices can serve as the central processor in an IoT device or as a component in more intricate designs to handle connectivity for IoT applications. There are three versions available in the product family: CYW55913 for operating in three frequency bands (2.4/5/6 GHz), CYW55912 for dual-band operation (2.4/5 GHz), and CYW55911 for single-band operation (2.4GHz).
