Silicon Labs Unveils BG29 Bluetooth LE Wireless SoC for Miniature Devices

Silicon Labs announced its new Series 2 BG29 family of wireless SoCs, designed to bring high compute and connectivity to the smallest form factor Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) devices without compromising performance. A highly efficient, high memory, low-power, and ultra compact SoC designed for secure and high performance wireless networking applications, this new BG29 SoC is ideal for today's most intensive Bluetooth LE applications in wearables, health and medical devices, asset trackers, and battery-powered sensors.

Sonical, the company pioneering a fully integrated approach for the product development of headphones and hearables, with a real-time operating system that allows consumers to load their own apps has confirmed a development partnership with Sigma Connectivity, the leading Swedish technology design and engineering house. Sigma will help Sonical accelerate the market transition to Headphone 3.0 and the adoption of user driven wearable audio devices.
