EFR32BG22 Wireless Gecko SoC Family
Data Sheet
The EFR32BG22 Wireless Gecko family of SoCs is part of the
Wireless Gecko portfolio. EFR32BG22 Wireless Gecko SoCs are
ideal for enabling energy-friendly Bluetooth 5.2 networking for IoT
devices.
The single-die solution combines a 76.8 MHz Cortex-M33 with a high performance 2.4
GHz radio to provide an industry-leading, energy efficient wireless, SoC for IoT connec-
ted applications.
Wireless Gecko applications include:
