Self-contained low power Wi-Fi IP for IoT apps
The emerging theme of fit-for-purpose IoT parts gained yet another perspective, this time with ARM and CEVA chiming in on a low-power Wi-Fi approach outlined in a new webinar. It was a rather unique event with an abbreviated 25-minute presentation and an extended 35-minute Q&A that added a lot of insight.
CEVA is betting heavily on two data points. First is a rough estimate I’m not sure I believe entirely: a calculation courtesy of Green Peak saying if there are 600M+ households all converted to smart homes with 100+ nodes each, it adds up to 60B nodes. Obviously the math is correct, and I know and respect Cees and his guys, but I don’t think the penetration in the smart home is that wide or that deep anytime soon. That said, I do think the opportunity for Wi-Fi in the smart home is significant and worth customizing silicon.
