SiLMGM12P32F1024GE-V4R

Overview

The MGM12P32F1024GE-V4R is a pre-certified Mighty Gecko module from Silicon Labs based on the EFR32MG12 SoC. It integrates an ARM Cortex-M4 core with 1024 kB of Flash and 256 kB of RAM, supporting multiple 2.4 GHz wireless protocols including Zigbee, Thread, and Bluetooth 5.0. This module features a high-performance power amplifier capable of up to +17 dBm output power and includes a U.FL connector for external antenna flexibility.

Why Choose This Part

This module simplifies RF design by providing a fully integrated solution with a built-in power amplifier and hardware-based security features like AES-256 and ECC. It offers exceptional power efficiency with a sleep current of 2.62 uA and includes the Peripheral Reflex System (PRS) for autonomous peripheral interaction.

Applications

Getting Started

Engineers can begin development using the Simplicity Studio IDE, which provides the necessary stacks for Zigbee, Thread, and Bluetooth. For hardware evaluation, the Wireless Gecko Starter Kit (SLWSTK6000B) is the primary platform for testing the MGM12P module's capabilities.

Also Consider

MGM13P02F512GA-V2 SiLSilicon Labs - Offers an integrated chip antenna and is optimized for lower power applications where 512 kB of Flash is sufficient.

ESP32-WROOM-32E-N16 Espressif Systems - A cost-effective alternative for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi applications, though it lacks native Zigbee/Thread support found in the Mighty Gecko series.
