ISM transceiver offers sub-1uA standby current
WirelessUSB NL boasts an impressive -87dBm receive sensitivity at 1Mbps; enhanced sensitivity that is said to enable longer range operation and allow for lower-power transmit signals.
The device features very low active and standby current (less than 1uA), enabling battery life to be more than a year for normal mouse usage. WirelessUSB NL also has a closed-loop internal architecture that minimizes signal frequency drift for more robust radio performance. This robustness minimizes retries during transmission enabling lower power consumption and allows for long payload lengths of up to 255 bytes. The device is highly integrated, requiring less than 12 non-critical supporting components to make a complete mouse.
Fühlen, a leading mouse manufacturer, has selected WirelessUSB NL for its new A50G wireless mouse. Rex Lai, President of Fuhlen said, "The WirelessUSB NL solution offered us low-power and high performance at the right price." WirelessUSB NL also supports Cypress’ Agile HID protocol that allows existing WirelessUSB customers to get started quickly on their designs without any additional effort. Reference designs to speed time-to-market are available from Cypress for these solutions.
