August 09 2017 - 9:17AM
Low Power, Secure Memory
Supports Over-the-Air Updates for Smart Home Applications
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 09, 2017 (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- Adesto Technologies, (NASDAQ:IOTS), a leading provider
of application-specific, ultra-low power non-volatile memory (NVM)
products, announced that its serial flash memory has been selected
to support Sigma Designs ZM5101 and ZM5202 Z-Wave communications
chipsets. The Adesto memory solutions enable system designers to
build over-the-air (OTA) update functions into their smart home and
other wireless devices.
Designed for low power operation, high system
efficiency and secure data storage, Adesto's new DataFlash-L
(AT25PE Series) and DataFlash (AT45 Series) products will support
Sigma customers in designs that incorporate the two Z-Wave
chipsets. Current designs using these modules include a wide range
of end applications including smart lighting, wireless thermostats,
smart metering, home security devices and more. The open Z-Wave
standard already powers more than 70 million interoperable smart
home devices worldwide.
"Adesto stepped in to fill a clear industry need
with a solution that's perfectly aligned with our Z-Wave modules,"
said Raoul Wijgergangs, VP, IoT - Z-Wave Business Unit at Sigma
Designs. "OTA is supported by over 75% of our smart home IoT
products which have been released in the last three years where
field upgrade flexibility in the smart home has become the default
market requirement. Adesto's DataFlash memory solution is essential
to continuing that adoption trend."
"Our DataFlash products are an excellent match for Sigma's
innovative Z-Wave modules and address the system needs for the fast
growing smart home applications market," said Paul Hill, Adesto's
Serial Flash Product Marketing Director. "Advanced features such as
page-erase and a single command to read, modify and write data,
make it possible for systems to update data and firmware without
burdening the microcontroller with additional tasks. Features like
these make DataFlash and DataFlash-L extremely efficient and help
maximize battery life."
Adesto's DataFlash products offer a range of
power-saving features including a wide (1.65V-3.6V) operating
voltage range (Vcc) and "ultra-deep power down" mode which allows
the device to function with a class-leading standby current of less
than 400 nanoamps. DataFlash products also feature byte-level erase
and write operations and comprehensive security to protect stored
data and prevent outside tampering.
Adesto's application specific memory products are
used in a wide of variety of end applications with a strong
presence in the Internet of Things, ranging from smart homes, smart
metering and fitness monitors and asset trackers.
