NXP Introduces Industry's First Multi-Protocol Wireless Microcontroller Solution

Securely interconnected single-chip KineTIs microcontrollers (MCUs) with higher memory capacity, dedicated encryption technology, and low power consumption make these IoT solutions possible today

Santa Clara, CA – October 18, 2016 – NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ: NXPI) today announced that the industry's first monolithic multi-protocol wireless connectivity microcontroller (MCU) is available Goods, the KineTIs KW41Z microcontroller (MCU) series is fully available. The microcontroller (MCU) family supports simultaneous operation of Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) v4.2 and IEEE® 802.15.4-based Thread protocols with sufficient storage capacity (512 KB Flash and 128 KB SRAM) to run all application. The KineTIs KW41Z microcontroller (MCU) family uses the ARM® Cortex®-M0+ core to provide certified BLE and pre-certified Thread protocol stacks designed to reduce the difficulty of building a seamless network of smart devices. In response to the growing demand for secure and reliable communication between IoT devices, Thread provides a powerful IP-based mesh network technology to build a secure, scalable and reliable private network. At the same time, these connected devices are required to use the BLE protocol to control and monitor them through smart devices (such as smart phones or tablets), or join the Thread network to implement indirect control and monitoring through cloud technology at home. In addition, BLE provides an easy way to securely connect IoT devices to the Thread network. The KineTIs KW41Z Microcontroller (MCU) is a cost-effective, multi-protocol solution that meets these requirements while reducing design cost and design complexity and reducing overall product size.

“We built a mesh network using the multi-protocol NXP Kinetis KW41Z microcontroller (MCU), which consists of a large number of devices using Thread technology, and supports BLE for peer-to-peer communication. This provides customers with extremely high Flexibility and ease of use make it easy to manage LED fixtures and pumps in the aquarium," said Chris Clough, president of C2 Development, Inc.

Emmanuel Sambuis, vice president of NXP Semiconductors, which is responsible for microcontrollers (MCUs) and interconnects, said: "Providing easy-to-use seamless interconnected products is very important for the development of the Internet of Things." "As the industry's first to offer true Thread and based BLE products are a full-fledged solution for companies that have been helping developers drive their growth."

Ecosystem partners and developers (such as Rigado) use the Kinetis KW41Z microcontroller (MCU) to provide a regulatory-certified, ready-to-use module that provides hardware and firmware tools, engineering support, and custom services. The land speeds up development and launch.

"The KW41Z microcontroller (MCU) uses both Thread and BLE technology. This unique combination enables our new R41Z module to provide IoT developers with an outdated solution that helps reduce time to market while ensuring their interconnected products. Basically secure and scalable," said Kevin Tate, chief marketing officer at Rigado.

Plastic Bellow Cover

Flexible accordion guide shield (Plastic Bellow Cover) is a kind of shield machine. Organ of the shape of the shield can be designed according to the actual needs various styles, at the same time, the size of shield can be made according to the actual needs. Shield (cover) for external use German nylon fabric, with PVC board support, both ends load for a fixed metal skeleton connection or plastic skeleton.

Plastic Bellow Cover

This kind of shield (cover) has advantages of small compression. Product can be oil resistant, corrosion resistant, hard objects collision deformation; Walking at the same time product has long life, good sealing, stable, durable, etc. Using this kind of product can bring perfect effect to the use of the machine tool. Shield (cover) inside without any metal parts, don't worry about shield (cover) work when a loose parts and causing severe damage to the machine.

The working speed of shield`s air bellows can reach 200 m/s. Flexible accordion guide shield (Plastic Bellow Cover) has been widely used in numerically controlled machine tools, electronic equipment, stone machinery, glass machinery, door machines, injection molding machine, manipulator, lifting transport equipment, automatic warehouse etc.

Structure of common Flexible accordion shield (Plastic Bellow Cover) material is as follows:

Plus material: Nylon cloth or protective cloth

Support: PVC sheet

Connecting plate: Resin plate, iron plate

Pulley: Copper or nylon bearing


Design parameters for flexible accordion guide shield (Plastic Bellow Cover)

1. L: Length after drawing

2. L1: Length after compression

3. L2: Travel length

4. B: Total width of the shield

5. B1: Guide width

6. B2: Interior width of the shield

7. H:Total height of the shield

8. H1:Guide height of the guide

9. H2:Interior width of the shield

Design parameters for flexible accordion guide shield

To calculate the dimensions of the welded bellow at the design stage, it is useful to pay mind some date:

1. The standard folds have the following height: 15mm/ 20mm/ 30mm/ 35mm/ 40mm/ 45mm/ 50mm;

2. The total play between the slides and the bellow must be from a minimum of 5mm to maximum of 10mm.

3. The extension of one fold is equivalent to twice the fold`s height minus 10mm.

4. The thickness of a compressed fold is on average 4mm.

5. The compressed length of the bellows is equal to:

Extension of bellow÷extension of one fold ×(3~4.5mm)+flange thicknesses
