The GFET3 IPS addresses space-constrained PCB applications, typical in fitness bands, smartphones and tablet PCs. The three new switchescover high-side power control applications from 1.0 to 4.0A.
The technology provides positioning and spatial freedom for the charging of multiple devices on the transmitter. Delivering 1W of output power to the charging devices, targeted low-power applications include wearables such as hearing aids, activity trackers, smart headphones, smart jewelry and clothing, low power industrial and portable medical equipment, as well as LED fixtures.
The multi-protocol Bluetooth 5-certified radio SoC can be used for wearables such as fitness trackers and smart watches, smart locks, and electronics like lighting or appliances.
It features two Sensirion SHTW2 humidity and temperature sensors and acts as an intelligent circuit. Developers can incorporate on/off body detection for improved battery management, says the company.
