Renesas / Dialog DA14592 SmartBond™ BLE SoC with Embedded Flash
Renesas/Dialog DA14592 SmartBond™ Multi-Core BLUETOOTH® Low-Energy (BLE) 5.2 or 5.3 System-on-Chip (SoC) with Embedded Flash features CM33F at 64MHz as application core and CM0+ at 64MHz as configurable MAC. This multi-core BLE SoC also features a quad-decoder (active in hibernation) and 8-channel sigma-delta ADC with 15 Effective Number of Bits (ENOB). The DA14592 SoC offers high-precision analog measurements and M33 + M0 Arm® Cortex® cores that support floating-point application programming. This SoC allows the expansion of memory with QSPI external Flash/RAM. Typical applications include asset tracking, data logger, human interface device, activity tracker, high-end voice RCU, and crowd-sourced locations.The DA14592 offers low overall radio power consumption and a low-power mode with a radio transmit current of only 2.3mA at 0dBm and a radio receive current of 1.2mA. Furthermore, it supports an ultra-low hibernation current of 90nA, which extends the shelf-life of end-products shipped with a connected battery. For products that require extensive application processing, it also boasts an ultra-low active current of 34µA/MHz. The DA14592 has BLE 5.2, while the DA14594 has BLE 5.3.
The Renesas DA14592 SoC typically requires only six external components, delivering best-in-class eBOM and offering a low solution cost and size. Its high-accuracy on-chip RCX removes the need for an external, sleep mode crystal, with most applications only requiring a 32MHz crystal. Package options include WLCSP (3.32mm x 2.48mm) and FCQFN (5.1mm x 4.3mm), which offer an attractively small solution footprint.
