Zensys Picks Kilopass XPM Memory for Wireless Remote Control Applications, The Next Generation of Home Control and Automation
Update: Synopsys Expands DesignWare IP Portfolio with Acquisition of Kilopass Technology (Jan. 10, 2018)
XPM offers low-cost and secure, embedded non-volatile memory
Santa Clara, CA -- April 15, 2008 -- Kilopass Technology, a leading provider of semiconductor non-volatile memory (NVM) intellectual property (IP), today announced that Zensys, the developer of the Z-Wave wireless home control standard, has selected the Kilopass XPM one-time programmable embedded memory technology for its broadband wireless remote home control applications. Zensys is using XPM memory to store network and application data.
Zensys picked Kilopass for its wireless mesh network (a communications network made up of radio nodes) application because XPM uses a small amount of die area, is easy to implement and has low manufacturing costs. Zensys is using XPM memory to store a secure serial number that identifies each radio node in the network.
The Z-Wave mesh network and the RF System-on-Chip (SOC) technology for broadband wireless home control applications bring affordable, reliable and easy-to -deploy wireless home control to every aspect of daily life -- the home environment, consumer electronics healthcare, and energy management -- to create a truly "connected home." Z-Wave's interoperable wireless mesh networking technology allows a wide array of devices around the home to communicate, including lighting, appliances, HVAC, entertainment centers, and security systems.
“Kilopass’ XPM technology allows us to contain our costs and add new features to our SoCs,” said Niels Thybo Johansen, Vice President R&D, Zensys.
“We are pleased that XPM technology was selected for an advanced product technology such as the Zensys wireless home control application,” added Charles Ng, Kilopass’ VP of worldwide sales.
