Qorvo has introduced a new system on chip (SoC) solution for smart home devices, which is now sampling with key customers.

This next-generation IoT solution features Qorvo’s proprietary ConcurrentConnect technology and combines multi-network support for Matter, Zigbee and Bluetooth Low Energy with unrivalled energy efficiency in a scalable turnkey solution.

QPG6200L is the first product based on a new low-power wireless connectivity platform from Qorvo designed to address the challenges of today’s rapidly evolving smart home environment, ensuring seamless communication and interoperability across multiple wireless standards. The QPG6200L supports multiple protocols on separate channels simultaneously, delivering the highest RF performance and reliability for a wide range of consumer IoT applications, including smart lighting, sensors and home hubs. It also leverages a built-in secure element and is PSA Certified Level 2 for enhanced IoT security.

"The QPG6200L adds to Qorvo’s leadership in smart home connectivity," said Marc Pegulu, general manager of Qorvo’s Connectivity Systems business. "Featuring our unique ConcurrentConnect technology not only enhances device performance across multiple networks but also eases the transition to Matter, offering users the best of both worlds without leaving any Zigbee devices behind."

Qorvo’s QPG6200L sets a new paradigm in energy efficiency for multi-standard SoCs with an industry-leading sleep current of less than 1 µA, 30% lower than competing solutions, making it the ideal choice for low-power applications such as battery-operated sensors and energy-harvesting devices. The QPG6200L’s ultra-low power consumption extends battery life and supports more sustainable smart home solutions.

As the global market for smart home devices continues to expand, with IDC projecting global sales to reach 1.2 billion units by 2028, the QPG6200L is poised to play a critical role in supporting the next wave of connected devices. Qorvo offers smart home OEMs a turnkey solution for Matter over Thread, simplifying the design process while ensuring robust security and performance across the network. Its PSA Level 2 certification ensures the QPG6200L solution meets security standards to protect against common software attacks.
