DIALOG SEMICONDUCTOR LAUNCHES SMARTPULSE WORLD'S FIRST DECT ULE WIRELESS
SENSOR NETWORK DEVICES
Self configuring wireless sensor network devices enable remotely
managed home automation, healthcare, security and energy monitoring
consumer applications
Kirchheim/Teck, Germany, 13 September 2011 - Dialog Semiconductor plc (FWB:
DLG), a provider of highly integrated innovative power management, audio
and short range wireless technologies, has announced SmartPulse(TM), the
world's first family of IC based devices interoperable with the DECT ULE
(ultra low energy) wireless standard. SmartPulse has been created for home
automation, healthcare, security and energy monitoring consumer
applications.
End products integrating SmartPulse wireless sensors self configure to
connect with a home's DECT ULE enabled hub device or IP gateway. End users
will also be able to manage SmartPulse systems remotely via a smartphone,
laptop or tablet PC.
Dialog's SmartPulse suite of IC based devices consists of the SC14WSMDATA
(data) and SC14WSMDECT (data and audio) wireless sensor nodes, which run
for up to 10 years on a single AAA battery pack, and the SC14CVMDECT base
station device that can be integrated into standalone hub products or
internet gateways - allowing the remote management of SmartPulse enabled
systems over an internet connection.
The DECT ULE standard is backwards compatible; enabling SmartPulse sensor
nodes to communicate with existing legacy DECT enabled hubs and internet
gateways from multiple manufacturers, with a simple software update.
Lisa Arrowsmith, Senior Analyst with IMS Research's Connectivity Group
commented: 'DECT ULE can enable a variety of in-home applications, such as
automation, security, energy management and consumer health monitoring.
DECT technology has already proven its performance in residential
environments, and the emerging DECT ULE standard will benefit from the
maturity of previous DECT solutions, in terms of both technical development
and consumer awareness. With low sleep-mode power consumption and a range
well-suited to residential environments, IMS Research projects rapid uptake
of the DECT ULE standard for wireless sensor networks.'
'The rise of the smartphone and tablet PC has led to a shift that enables
ease of control. By connecting SmartPulse devices to the web consumers can
seamlessly and securely control multiple home systems simply from
anywhere,' said Jalal Bagherli, CEO of Dialog. 'Our heritage in power
efficiency, combined with our acquired expertise in DECT and IP
communications, puts us in a unique position to enable these new consumer
applications.'
All SmartPulse devices transmit 232-bit packet data in the 1870-1930MHz
licensed DECT band. With a link budget of 123dB, systems that integrate
SmartPulse sensors can reliably stream data throughout even large family
homes and gardens.
The SC14WSMDATA and SC14WSMDECT sensor nodes integrate the baseband, radio
transceiver, antenna and power amplifier into a single system-in-package
IC. In sleep mode the programmable devices use less than 3uA. Home
automation applications being developed by Dialog's customers include
wireless smoke detectors, door lock sensors, appliance energy monitoring,
window security monitors and lighting control systems. The SC14WSMDECT
sensor further integrates audio functionality, enabling the creation of
battery powered voice devices such as personal security and healthcare
pendant communication devices.
The SC14CVMDECT base station device supports both voice and data,
connecting with up to six voice and 256 data sensor nodes, and supports the
DECT ULE, DECT 6.0 and CAT-iq standards. The system-in-package IC, that
integrates a UART interface for external hosts, is easily programmable
using its AT command set and requires no wireless network planning.
The Dialog SmartPulse devices meet certification standards for all global
markets - FCC, EU and J-DECT. All three devices will be available in
high-volume quantities from October 2011 in 25x29mm, 123-pin packages.
SmartPulse is Dialog's first wireless technology launch since it acquired
SiTel Semiconductor in February 2011. The three SmartPulse devices, with
development kits and an IP enabled reference design, will be demonstrated
by Dialog in October at the Smart Homes exhibition and conference,
Amsterdam.
