EETimes – Dialog’s VirtualZero Offers Uptick in Battery Life in IoT Devices –
Many IoT products require secure, always-on connectivity (often via Wi-Fi), but that almost always comes at the cost of compromises in terms of battery life.

Dialog Semiconductor announced the availability of the DA16200, an ultra-low-power Wi-Fi networking SoC, along with two modules that leverage Dialog’s VirtualZero technology to deliver a longer battery life for Wi-Fi-connected, battery-powered IoT devices. This SoC has integrated power amplifiers (PA) and low noise amplifiers (LNA), so there is no need for an external PA. The PA’s output power is +20dBm when required. Meanwhile, LNA delivers -99.5dBm receiver sensitivity.
