SANTA CLARA, Calif. and
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) — a worldwide leader in
providing complete silicon solutions from storage to Internet of
Things (IoT), cloud infrastructure, digital entertainment, in-home
content delivery and Kinoma® software enabling the "Smart Life
and Smart Lifestyle" — today announced the new Marvell EZ-Connect™
MW302 IoT Starter Kit powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT, a
new platform that makes it easy for devices to connect to AWS
services so that companies can store, process, analyze, and act on
the volumes of data generated by connected devices on a global
scale. Marvell created the Starter Kit powered by AWS IoT to enable
developers to easily design smart devices targeted to the full
range of IoT applications including: home automation, home
security, personal healthcare, smart appliances, lighting,
industrial Internet and more. The Marvell IoT Starter Kit powered
by AWS IoT features the Marvell EZ-Connect MW300/302 Wi-Fi
microcontroller system-on-chip (SoC) and is now available for sale
globally.
"Our collaboration with AWS represents Marvell's continued
dedication to innovate and develop optimized solutions to
accelerate the growth of the IoT industry," said Philip Poulidis, Vice President and General
Manager, Wireless and Internet of Things Business Units at Marvell.
"Now, through Marvell's EZ-Connect MW302 IoT Starter Kit, our
customers gain access to AWS IoT to rapidly develop and bring to
market a new wave of innovative, groundbreaking experiences and
services for consumers and businesses."
Marvell has collaborated with AWS to develop the Marvell
EZ-Connect MW302 IoT Starter Kit for developers to quickly
prototype a product, connect it to AWS IoTplatform, and then use
that to develop applications and services that benefit consumers
and businesses. The 88MW300/302 Wi-Fi microcontroller SoC, the
flagship chip in the Marvell EZ-Connect family, has already been
adopted by leading global OEMs to develop a broad range of products
including home appliances, thermostats, CO/smoke detectors, toys,
wireless storage, HomeKit accessories, and other smart connected
products. Marvell has also partnered with leading smart-home
platforms including Apple HomeKit. With today's announcement,
Marvell customers will have access to a flexible, scalable,
pay-as-you-go AWS IoT cloud service and platform that is trusted by
more than one million businesses worldwide. The Marvell solution,
combined with AWS, is designed to enable rapid development of IoT
products and to accelerate time to market.
The Marvell EZ-Connect MW300/302 Wi-Fi
microcontroller is a single-chip SoC with 1x1 802.11n
Wi-Fi and full-featured Cortex-M4 microcontroller featuring the
following key benefits:
- Secure boot based on hardware root of trust enabling complete,
multi-layered security solution to provide secure persistent
storage and communications.
- A flexible memory architecture with generous 512kB SRAM and an
accelerated flash controller providing memory-mapped access to
external QSPI flash enabling IoT devices to be built with
full-featured communication protocols, stacks and support
integrations into multiple platforms and ecosystems.
- Low-power optimizations enabling deep low-power states and
reduced power-consumption in active modes to enable battery-powered
applications.
- Very low RBOM requiring only a single crystal, QSPI flash, and
antenna with a single input power rail. A QFN package enables low
PCB cost.
- Easy interfacing to sensors, actuators, and other components
via a full set of I/O interfaces including SPI, I2C, UART, I2S,
PWM, ADC, DAC reducing extra components and PCB footprint.
- Audio and video streaming enabled in any IoT device via a
powerful Cortex-M4F CPU with DSP and Floating point support, large
SRAM, and high-speed USB 2.0 OTG interface supporting USB Video
(UVC) and Audio (UAC).
- Production quality software SDK providing libraries for
networking middleware (HTTP, TLS, BSD Sockets, MQTT, Web-Sockets,
JSON, XML, etc.), easy connection to Wi-Fi networks, Secure
over-the-air (OTA) firmware update, persistent storage, and more.
The SDK also includes tools and documentation to facilitate
software development and optimizations, and help customers through
manufacturing and certifications to bring products to market
quickly.
Marvell will be demonstrating its new Marvell EZ-Connect MW302
IoT Starter Kit powered by AWS IoT on Oct. 8
- 9 at AWS re:Invent, in Las
Vegas, in booth No. 1150.
