Mouser already has it! The Silicon Labs Single Chip MCU with Integrated Sub-GHz RF Transceiver
Mouser Electronics, Inc., known for its rapid introduction of the newest products, today announced it is stocking new product from Silicon Labs. The Silicon Labs Si100x / Si101x device family is the industry’s lowest power single chip microcontroller (MCU) with integrated sub-GHz RF transceiver. The Silicon Labs Si100x / Si101x single chip MCU is designed to address the specific requirements of low power embedded systems requiring an RF bidirectional communication link such as metering, in-home utility monitoring, wireless security panels, wireless sensor, home building automation, and access control.
The Silicon Labs Si100x / Si101x single chip MCU features lowest power consumption with RTC (32.768 kHz) active – 650 nA, lowest power consumption with RTC (LFO) active – 350 nA, and fastest wake from sleep time – 2 us. The high efficiency RF transceiver integrated into this device family provides 2.5x output power and 15x receive sensitivity with the same current consumption for great range with no increase in power budget.

Family features high pin-count Capacitive Touch Sense, mixed-signal functions
Mouser Electronics, Inc., today announced it is stocking the C8051F70x Microcontroller family from Silicon Labs, a global leader in high-performance, analog-intensive, mixed-signal ICs.
Mouser stock includes the C8051F70x MCU family with Capacitive Touch Sense, the C8051F700DK Development Kit, and the KEYBOARDEK Keyboard Evaluation Kit.
The Silicon Labs’ C8051F70x family of high-performance MCUs features the patent-pending capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC), enabling customers to easily replace traditional mechanical switches with capacitive touch sense capability in any product requiring a high I/O count and high-performance analog peripherals. The new touch sense capability is accurate, responsive, and reliable allowing a more sophisticated human interface due to the inherent robust noise immunity. The C8051F70x features up to 54 general purpose I/O, Flash, EEPROM and RAM memory, and a 25 MIPS 8051 MPU CPU and can interface with up to 32 capacitive touch channels.
