SYN461x Wi-Fi 6, BT/BLE and IEEE802.15.4

Product Overview

The SYN461x is an ultra-low-power (ULP) Wi-Fi® 2.4/5/6 GHz, Bluetooth® 6.0 and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and IEEE 802.15.4 (Zigbee®/Thread™) system on chip (SoC). Designed for the embedded Edge AI Internet of Things (IoT), the SYN461x is optimized for power, system integration, size, and rapid time to market while delivering superior rate-over-range performance and seamless interoperability. The versatile Matter-compliant SoC offers the latest Bluetooth features, such as Channel Sounding and LE Audio—including Auracast™—and features an integrated RF front end with PA, LNA, and RF switches in a low-pin-count WLBGA package that helps reduce board costs by up to 25%. An integrated processor offl oads the host application processor to minimize system power consumption. The SYN461x targets consumer and industrial applications in devices such as wearables, smart watches, audio speakers and headsets, home appliances, security cameras, asset trackers, and factory automation.
