Embedded Wireless Chat and Energy Harvesting Webcast Highlight Low Power MCUs
AUSTIN, Texas--(Business Wire)--
Silicon Laboratories Inc. (Nasdaq: SLAB), a leader in high-performance,
analog-intensive, mixed-signal ICs, today announced its participation in the EE
Times Virtual Conference on Power Management: Designing for Efficiency, being
held Tuesday, August 18th at www.eetimes.com/power. Designers can visit Silicon
Labs` online booth from their desks and learn about the company`s low power
products that are ideal for addressing design challenges for power delivery,
power management and power efficiency. 

Silicon Labs will be showing the industry`s highest performance embedded
wireless solution at the virtual exhibition, which combines the high-performance
EZRadioPRO transceiver family and the C8051F9xx series of low-power mixed-signal
MCUs. High performance coupled with comprehensive built-in system features, such
as packet handling and antenna diversity, allows the devices to achieve the
