Rutronik Chooses the Infineon PSoC™ 6 MCU for the RDK2

The PSoC™ 6 family is built on an ultra-low-power architecture, and the MCUs feature low-power design techniques to extend battery life up to a full week for battery powered applications.

The dual-core Arm® Cortex®-M4 and Cortex-M0+ architecture lets designers optimize for power and performance simultaneously. Using its dual cores combined with configurable memory and peripheral protection units, the PSoC™ 6 MCU delivers the highest level of protection defined by the Platform Security Architecture (PSA) from Arm.

Designers can use the MCU's rich analog and digital peripherals to create custom analog front-ends (AFEs) or digital interfaces for innovative system components such as MEMS sensors, electronic-ink displays. The PSoC™ 6 MCU features the latest generation of industry-leading

CAPSENSE™ capacitive-sensing technology, enabling modern touch and gesture-based interfaces that are robust and reliable. PSoC™ 6 MCU, paired with Infineon’s AIROC™ Wi-Fi, AIROC™ Bluetooth, or AIROC™ combos radio modules, is the perfect solution for secure, low-power, feature-rich IoT products.
