Thread beta programme to speed IP mesh networking development
Silicon Labs has developed a Thread beta programme for selected customers and ecosystem partners, allowing them to accelerate their product development plans.
"We have developed the Thread networking protocol according to the latest draft specification and now have multinode networks up and running at key customers using our existing EM35xx wireless SoCs," said Skip Ashton, vice president of software engineering at Silicon Labs. "We are excited to be able to extend our leadership in mesh networking solutions through activities such as this beta program and our continued investment in ZigBee technology."
A founding member of the Thread Group, Silicon Labs says it has been a major contributor to the definition and development of the IP based mesh networking software stack.
