Qorvo® and ubisys have developed a new ultra-compatible gateway solution. It allows various devices to communicate by integrating a ZigBee® 3.0 and Green Power-based smart home network within the Open Connectivity Foundation IoTivity framework. The open-source IoTivity framework provides specifications for seamless device-to-device connectivity across diverse physical media, transports and application layers. This framework is essential as the number of IoT devices - already in the billions - continues to grow. The Qorvo IoTivity plug-ins will be the first to support a single, multi-stack radio chip. Wireless products - such as the Qorvo GP712 chip - simultaneously handle multiple IoT network layers, including Thread, ZigBee 3.0 with Green Power and RF4CE networks. The highly integrated GP712 simplifies the design of IoT gateways, routers and set-top boxes. By reducing components and antennas, it automatically mitigates the coexistence challenges of multiple IoT networks.
