Ezurio recently unveiled the Sona IF513 module featuring Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.4. Designed to address the stringent demands of contemporary IoT applications, the Sona IF513 offers exceptional wireless performance, robust security features, and effortless integration capabilities.
Powered by Infineon’s advanced AIROC CYW55513 chipset, the Sona IF513 leverages cutting-edge Wi-Fi 6E technology, expanding the Wi-Fi spectrum into the 6 GHz band. This enhancement reduces congestion and increases bandwidth, resulting in faster data rates, lower latency, and improved network efficiency. The module is particularly suited for low power applications where battery life and Wi-Fi 6 performance are crucial. Furthermore, the inclusion of a top-tier Bluetooth radio provides features and RF performance surpassing those of other Wi-Fi radios.
“Our goal with the Sona IF513 is to provide a future-proof wireless solution that meets the evolving needs of power sensitive but performance minded IoT developers and their applications,” said Andy Ross, Senior Product Manager at Ezurio. “By leveraging the latest advancements in Infineon’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology, the Sona IF513 empowers our customers to create smarter, more connected products.”
The Sona IF513 represents an Ezurio Premium Wi-Fi Advantage solution, offering unmatched connectivity, hardware, software, regulatory, and global support. Designed for reliable performance even in the most challenging environments, it features integrated security elements like WPA3 and enhanced encryption, data rates of up to 143 Mbps for Wi-Fi and 2 Mbps for Bluetooth, and a broad operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Available in M.2 2230 and 1216 form factors with optional antenna diversity, the Sona IF513 facilitates seamless integration into existing systems, thereby reducing time-to-market and development costs.
“Infineon is pleased to work with Ezurio to bring our advanced, IoT-optimised Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth combo solution to developers across the globe,” commented Andrew Hart, Director of Marketing, Wi-Fi Products, Infineon Technologies. “The combination of long-range wireless capability, superior power efficiency, and versatile platform support is ideal for the most demanding IoT and industrial applications that Ezurio effectively serves.”
The Sona IF513 is currently available for sampling and will enter mass production by Q4 2024. The module will be globally certified with FCC, ISED, UKCA, CE, RCM, and Bluetooth SIG certifications, streamlining costs and expediting time to market.
