The IoT rollout across businesses, factories, and homes continues to gain momentum, with increasingly more tasks and processes being handled at the edge. Customer demand for higher speeds, smaller form factors, and increased processing power are driving the development of new generations of SoCs and MCUs to fill the need. In this article, explore the wide range of secure loT wireless SoCs, modules, and microcontrollers available from Silicon Labs for cutting-edge applications.
Silicon Labs Series 2 Wireless SoCs and MCUs are designed from the ground up with security in mind. By including features like Secure Vault™ and ARM® TrustZone®, users have multiple ways to secure their devices depending on their needs.
Secure Vault™-Mid gives users access to features like Secure Boot with RTSL and DPA countermeasures as a base level of security. The Secure Vault™- High option extends to additional features like anti-tamper, enhanced cryptography, and secure key management giving users the option to scale as their security needs evolve.
Before we highlight some of Silicon Labs' secure Series 2 products, watch this training from Mike Dow, Security and Services Product Manager at Silicon Labs. Mike will review the evolving IoT regulatory landscape, catalysts for new security requirements and certifications of IoT products as well as some of the latest IoT security technologies available.
Secure loT Wireless SoCs and Modules
The Silicon Labs EFR32 Series 2 Wireless SoCs and modules provide a flexible, secure platform for lot product development. With options for both Secure Vault™ - Mid and Secure Vault™ - High in most families, developers can choose the solution that best meets their security needs while keeping their options open should those needs change in the future.
