Silicon Labs is pleased to announce an additional source for EFR32BG21 and EFR32MG21 SoCs (jointly referred to as xG21)
at Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC). This change is needed to increase capacity to ensure supply
continuity due to increased demand for our Wireless SoCs and MCUs.
As of the effective date of this PCN, Silicon Labs will start porting xG21 from TSMC to SMIC. All existing OPNs will be updated
by replacing the revision character with “D” to identify the ICs from SMIC foundry.
Updated datasheets:

Updates
Impact on Form, Fit, Function, Quality, Reliability
No impact on form, fit, quality or reliability. Impact on function will be explained in errata and an update to the new software that
will need to be ported which is explained in the application note “AN1377: EFR32xG21 Revision B to Revision C+ Compatibility
and Migration Guide" available at: https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/application-notes/an1377-xg21-revb-to-revc-
