Matter is fast becoming the only Smart Home standard that… matters. Now, Silicon Labs and Arduino have partnered up to help developers go from new board to commissioned device faster than ever, speeding time to market.
Moreover, this news signals an exciting move toward commitment to open source standards and development from Silicon Labs. The partners said in the announcement that they are working together to enable easier development of Matter over Thread applications for Arduino's 33 million-strong developer community. Arduino has developed with Silicon Labs its first-ever Matter software libraries, and they are available on both the xG24 Explorer Kit from Silicon Labs and the xG24-based SparkFun Thing Plus Matter – MGM240P development board. Code samples, reference designs, documentation and more are now live on the Arduino Core for Silicon Labs Devices GitHub page.
Arduino Speeds Matter Development for Silicon Labs Developers
Phase Two of Partnership Focuses on Bringing New Hardware to Market
A complete platform for Matter development needs both hardware and software, and as Phase Two of the collaboration between Arduino and Silicon Labs, the two companies are co-developing a new member of the highly successful Arduino Nano family of development boards for small form factor devices. The new member of the family will incorporate the MGM240 Module from Silicon Labs.
Based on the MG24 SoC, the module provides wireless connectivity using Matter, Thread, and Bluetooth® protocols. With key features like an ARM® Cortex®-M33, ten dBm output power, low current consumption, and the highest PSA Certification Level 3 security, Arduino developers can create robust, fast, and energy-efficient applications while securing end-user privacy. The large memory of up to 1536 kB of Flash, 256 kB of RAM, and 32 GPIO provides the capacity and expandability needed for Matter.
