Akron, Ohio. Laird Connectivity is setting to release the Tungsten700 SMARC System-On-Module (SoM) operating with a MediaTek Genio 700 processor and Laird Connectivity's imminent Sona MT320 Wi-Fi 6/Bluetooth 5.3 module that was designed after the MediaTek Filogic 320 Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo radio. The combination forms a complete compute and connectivity solution.

Wi-Fi networks are the indispensable backbone for connected medical devices in hospitals.

Design teams working on wireless products are increasingly caught in a Catch-22. Their companies are shortening time-to-market timelines for new products because of growing financial pressures created by the recessionary trends.

Advanced wireless IoT applications such as machine vision, industrial HMI, audio/voice systems, and more, require an integrated hardware and software solution that can provide multiprocessing and industrial-grade features in a secure architecture.

Extreme miniaturization coupled with increasingly higher computer performance, efficient communication of networked, often also mobile systems – the developers of embedded systems have to meet enormous requirements.

Laird Connectivity announced the newest addition to their system-on-module (SOM) portfolio, the Summit SOM 8M Plus based on the NXP Semiconductors i.MX 8M Plus applications processor and 88W8997 wireless SoC.

The Sterling-LWB+ delivers a fully featured Wi-Fi 4 radio enabled with Laird Connectivity’s software drivers and support. The SDIO solution can be integrated with any Linux or Android based system, with RTOS software integration coming soon.
