EFR32BG13P632F512IM48-D

RF Transceiver ICS Overview

The EFR32BG13P632F512IM48-D is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) System on Chip from Silicon Labs, featuring an ARM Cortex-M4 core. It operates at 2.4 GHz with a maximum data rate of 2 Mbps and delivers 19 dBm output power. The device includes 512 kB of program memory and 64 kB of RAM within a QFN-48 package. It supports supply voltages between 1.8 V and 3.8 V, with receive current of 9.5 mA and transmit current of 35.3 mA. Sensitivity is -91.5 dBm.

RF Transceiver ICS Feature Summary

• Integrates a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 processor for complex application logic
• Supports Bluetooth v5.0 protocol stack for robust wireless connectivity
• Features integrated RF transceiver with optimized power consumption profiles

RF Transceiver ICS Applications

• Smart home lighting and control systems
• Wearable health monitoring devices
• Industrial sensor networks requiring BLE connectivity

RF Transceiver ICS Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D' indicates tape-and-reel packaging configuration compared to other variants. Confirm lifecycle status as active or end-of-life through official Silicon Labs channels before finalizing design-in decisions. Ensure compatibility with existing firmware libraries for the BG13 series.

RF Transceiver ICS Selection Notes

Select this model when Bluetooth v5.0 support and 19 dBm output power are required in a compact QFN-48 footprint. Compare against MG13 series if Zigbee mesh networking capabilities are needed instead of pure BLE functionality. Evaluate thermal performance requirements given the 125 C maximum operating temperature rating.

RF Transceiver ICS Part Context

This component belongs to the Blue Gecko family, designed specifically for Bluetooth Low Energy applications. It shares architectural similarities with other EFR32BG13 variants but differs in memory size and packaging options. The part integrates necessary peripherals for IoT node development.

RF Transceiver ICS Replacement Considerations

EFR32BG13P632F512IM48-C is a pin-compatible alternative with identical electrical specifications but utilizes tray packaging instead of tape-and-reel. Verify that the change in shipping format does not impact automated assembly processes.
