Mouser Electronics, Inc. provides engineers with the latest innovations in automation solutions through its comprehensive Smart Home Resource Centre. The growing number of IoT devices allows the management of the entire home, creating a unique experience for homeowners with greater control, peace of mind, and the possibility for long-term cost savings. IoT devices, such as thermostats, refrigerators, and vacuums, offer intelligent automation by learning user preferences and optimising energy use through real-time data analysis. By incorporating internet-connected devices and systems, the smart home, once a futuristic concept, is now a modern reality.
Progress in connectivity, such as tri-radio technology, integrates Wi-F 6, Bluetooth Low Energy, and IEEE 802.15.4 standard into a single component. This lays the foundation for a modernised network experience, improving speed, capacity, and security across IoT devices. When coupled with universal standards like Matter, these technologies produce a seamless, interconnected environment where devices communicate effortlessly. This unified IoT system can respond intuitively to real-world conditions, automatically watering plants based on soil conditions or switching on lights when it senses a car in the driveway.
The company's smart home content hub offers a comprehensive collection of articles, blogs, eBooks, and products to help engineering professionals deepen their understanding of automated system design. Curated by technical experts and manufacturing partners, these resources examine how to build a tailored, connected home, including how to harness emerging technologies like Amazon Sidewalk.
The company stocks the industry's widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, including the following products and solutions for smart home applications:
- The ABX00112 Nano Matter board by Arduino features the powerful MGM240S MCU from Silicon Labs. It seamlessly integrates the advanced Matter standard for IoT connectivity, catering to hobbyists and professionals. With compact dimensions of 18mm x 45mm, the component is ideal for energy-efficient projects that need connectivity options like Bluetooth Low Energy and OpenThread, like climate control and environmental monitoring.
- The QM45655 FEM from Qorvo is developed for Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) systems. The device features a minimal layout area with integrated matching and a compact form factor. The device's multiple Wi-Fi TX modes optimise output power, linearity, and power dissipation. This conserves power consumption while maintaining the highest linear output power and throughput. The device is suitable for wearable and smart home applications.
- The FRDM i.MX 91 development board by NXP Semiconductors is designed to evaluate i.MX 91 applications processors enable the rapid creation of Linux-based edge devices. The board features a rich set of interfaces, PMIC, and a Tri-Radio Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth Low Energy, and 802.15.4 module, making it excellent for industrial, automotive, and IoT applications.
- The ISM 868/915MHz FPC antennas from TE Connectivity/Linx Technologies are designed for LoRaWAN and IoT applications, addressing the growing demand for ISM antennas with a single frequency. These antennas are available in multiple FPC shapes with double-sided adhesive tape, simplifying mounting within the device, even on curved areas. The ISM 868/915MHz FPC Antennas are optimised for specific frequency bands, depending on product selection, and are suited for medical devices, home automation, and irrigation control.
