LE Audio brings in a suite of changes, including a new generic audio framework and a new audio codec. The latest spec introduces ISOC channels, and at a high level, this enables lower latency between devices, bidirectional communication, and broadcasting. This broadcasting feature is a big change in LE Audio since it will enable one-to-many devices capability, whereas before Classic Audio was limited to point-to-point communication.

Healthcare and medical technology have been growing in importance in both the embedded computing world and in patient care, and Infineon is making sure that these innovations are both as safe and secure as possible across use cases and applications. The market for medical electronics is currently expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10 percent worldwide, according to recent studies.

Hello Embedded Engineers, Developers and Makers! Welcome to In Case You Missed it: Embedded Insights, the weekly news show all about Embedded technologies and solutions from Embedded Computing Design.

Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) has quietly become one of the most critical enablers in the smart home ecosystem. While Wi-Fi grabs the headlines and Zigbee or Thread often get mentioned in hub-centric conversations, it’s Bluetooth® LE that’s powering many of the real-time, personal, and low-power interactions that make today’s smart homes feel intuitive and responsive.

Infineon has built quite the Bluetooth resume over the years, and with the launch of support for the Zephyr OS in our latest Bluetooth^® LE MCU, the AIROC™ CYW20829, we are opening the door even wider for developers. And with the number of applications growing almost daily, such support is welcome. Applications today include game controllers, PC peripherals, wearables, electronic shelf labels, asset tracking, and automotive applications such as car access, tire pressure monitoring, and battery management systems.

Bluetooth^® has found its way into far more applications than anyone could have imagined when the spec was first introduced, decades ago. To be fair, the specification has evolved with higher range, more bandwidth, and with less power consumption than what was originally possible, paving the way for all these new and cool applications.
