Making Industrial
IoT Products on the
World’s Largest and
Fastest Growing
Wireless Technology -
Bluetooth
®
Bluetooth® offers developers and
manufacturers one of the world’s
fastest growing wireless connectivity
technologies. In fact, 5.4 billion
Bluetooth-enabled IoT devices are
expected to be shipped by 2023.
However, succeeding in this intensely
competitive market isn’t easy; it
takes more than a myopic focus on
chip footprint or hardware specs.
Today’s IoT products need to
place an emphasis on protecting
users’ privacy against constantly
evolving security threats while
delivering great user-experiences
through superior RF performance,
smooth connectivity, long battery
life, and cutting-edge software
functionalities. In addition to juggling
these requirements, developers also
need to launch products faster to the
market via simplified development
experience and maintain the
installed-base securely, over-the-air,
throughout the product lifecycle.
Powering hundreds of millions of
Bluetooth-enabled IoT devices
globally, Silicon Labs’ Bluetooth®
portfolio makes it possible to build
energy-efficient IIoT devices and
applications quickly and maintain the
product lifecycle securely using over-
the-air firmware updates.
The portfolio comprises five
elements: hardware, software,
security, development kits,
and learning resources for
Bluetooth Low Energy as well
as Bluetooth mesh.
