Overview

Description

This highly integrated solution supports the full Bluetooth® 4.2 features. As a SmartBond™ device, it offers the highest performance, lowest power consumption, and smallest footprint. Delivering processing capacity when you need it and saving power when you don’t, it can manage multi-sensor arrays and enable always-on sensing. Plus, our SmartSnippets™ tooling helps you optimize your software for power consumption.

The DA14680 System-on-Chip (SoC) includes Flash memory, offers unlimited execution space, and enables Over-the-Air (OTA) updates. With an integrated power management unit (PMU) that includes system power rails, a battery charger, and a fuel gauge, it supports rechargeable batteries natively and can power a complete wearable system. Meanwhile, a dedicated hardware crypto engine delivers banking-level security (including Apple HomeKit support) with end-to-end encryption to keep personal data safe.
