TI's breakthrough BAW resonator technology paves the way for high-performance communications infrastructure and connectivity

Designers can leverage innovative chips with TI BAW technology to shrink BOM, improve network performance and increase immunity to vibration and shock

DALLAS, Feb. 27, 2019 — (PRNewswire) — Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) announced today new bulk acoustic wave (BAW)-based embedded processing and analog chips for the next generation of connectivity and communications infrastructure. The first two devices developed with TI BAW technology, the SimpleLink™ CC2652RB wireless microcontroller (MCU) and the LMK05318 network synchronizer clock will help system designers streamline design logistics for faster time to market, while enabling stable, simplified and high-performance data delivery, which in return, allows for potential overall development and system cost savings. For more information about the CC2652RB, please visit www.ti.com/simplelink-baw-pr. For more information about the LMK05318, please visit www.ti.com/ct-baw-pr.

Designers can leverage innovative chips with TI BAW technology to shrink BOM, improve network performance and increase immunity to vibration and shock

Communications and industrial automation systems with discrete clocking and quartz-crystal devices can be costly, time-consuming and complicated to develop and are often susceptible to environmental stress. The new devices with TI BAW resonator technology integrate reference clocking resonators to provide the highest frequency in a small form factor. This higher level of integration improves performance and increases resistance to mechanical stresses, such as vibration and shock. As a result of stable data transmission enabled by TI BAW technology, data synchronization of wired and wireless signals is more precise and allows for continuous transmission, which means data can be processed quickly and seamlessly to maximize efficiency.

At embedded world 2019, TI is demonstrating how designers working on data transfer, building and factory automation, and grid infrastructure equipment can take advantage of this technology to develop higher performing systems while minimizing system cost, size and design complexity.
