With features like host offloading, integrated amplifiers, and industry-leading security, the MM8108 makes developing long-range, low-power IoT applications more simple and cost-effective than ever before,” stated Andrew Terry, co-founder and CTO of Morse Micro.

Key options embody:

World-first 256-QAM (MCS9) operation: Improved spectrum effectivity, minimizing interference in high-density environments and enabling throughputs of as much as 43.33Mbps
USB, SDIO and SPI host integration: Bettering ease of integration and enabling USB AP and STA dongle operation on new and present community infrastructure
Built-in PA with unmatched transmit effectivity: Excessive transmit output energy of 26dBm with solely 325mA present draw from a 3.3V voltage supply
Low energy operation: Optimized for battery-operated purposes with considerably prolonged sleep instances and ultra-low energy consumption in sleep modes
Class-leading Rx and Tx efficiency: Longest attain and quickest Wi-Fi HaLow chip out there, enabling numerous purposes together with AI-enabled IoT gadgets and streaming a number of Extremely Excessive Definition (HD) 4K cameras in real-time over in depth vary
Enhanced safety: Helps next-generation WPA3 with Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) and GCMP encryption for strong link-layer safety
Scalable design: Compact 5 x 5 mm BGA package deal minimizes printed circuit board (PCB) dimension and price

The MM8108 extends Morse Micro’s lead in providing the highest-quality, highest-performance, and highest-efficiency Wi-Fi HaLow-compliant chip available on the market.

Accelerating Market Development

Complementing the cutting-edge MM8108, Morse Micro can be unveiling the MM8108-RD09 USB dongle reference design, which demonstrates the benefit of upgrading new and present Wi-Fi 4/5/6/6E/7 community infrastructure to assist Wi-Fi HaLow. The dongle reference design shall be made obtainable to clients as a completely compliant Wi-Fi HaLow reference design, which can be utilized to construct business USB dongles or to simplify the mixing of the MM8108 silicon in finish merchandise.

Key options embody:

A USB dongle incorporating the newest technology MM8108 Morse Micro chipset
An SMA antenna chosen for optimum efficiency
A sturdy design that may be included as-is into clients’ product designs
Full compliance with the IEEE 802.11ah specs
Prepared for Wi-Fi HaLow certification by the Wi-Fi Alliance

The MM8108-RD09 USB dongle shall be bundled with Raspberry Pi 4B, energy provide and antenna, and made obtainable as a whole Wi-Fi HaLow analysis package (the MM8108-EKH19) concentrating on clients occupied with testing and integrating the MM8108 inside their platforms. This sturdy mixture places the MM8108 on the middle of a ready-to-deploy, compact answer that robustly integrates Wi-Fi HaLow connectivity into present gadgets with distinctive ease and effectivity.

“The MM8108-EKH19 is more than just a Wi-Fi HaLow evaluation platform – it’s an enabler of market transformation,” stated Michael De Nil, co-founder and CEO of Morse Micro. “By simplifying the integration process, we’re making it easier for customers to adopt Wi-Fi HaLow, driving growth and opening doors to new opportunities in IoT and beyond. These solutions position Morse Micro as a leader in a rapidly expanding market, empowering businesses to leverage the full potential of Wi-Fi HaLow for transformative connectivity.”
