Wi-Fi® 6 1x1 Concurrent Dual Wi-Fi (CDW) and Bluetooth® 5.3 Combo SoC

AW690 Active

The AW690 is a highly integrated Wi-Fi 6 device enabling concurrent dual Wi-Fi (CDW) and Bluetooth 5.3 operation. Supporting a 1x1 CDW configuration in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, and 2x2 MIMO single-band operation, the system-on-chip (SoC) provides a peak data rate of 1.2 Gbit/s and implements advanced features including MU-MIMO, OFDMA and target wake time (TWT).

With integrated 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz TX power amplifiers (PA), RX low noise amplifiers (LNA) and Tx/Rx switches (T/R SW) as well as a full Bluetooth radio, the AW690 simplifies the design and minimizes the PCB area.

The AW690 implements advanced Wi-Fi and Bluetooth coexistence hardware with algorithms to optimize collaborative performance. In addition, support for external radio coexistence (for example, cellular) is provided through an external interface.

With AEC-Q100 Grade 3- compliant options, the AW690 provides multiple host interface options for the Wi-Fi radios (PCIe) and Bluetooth radio (UART) to provide a flexible design for easy integration into demanding automotive applications.

Wireless modules based on the NXP AW690 are offered by leading module manufacturers.
