In June 2023, AltoBeam released its latest-generation Wi-Fi 4 transceiver chip family to its core customers:
ATBM6031X: SDIO interface
ATBM6032X: USB interface
ATBM6012BX: USB interface with 20 MHz bandwidth
Pin-to-pin compatible with the mainstream ATBM6031/6032/6012B chips currently shipped to market, the drivers and development kits are backward compatible with the previous generation. This facilitates customers to rapidly design and ramp up production on their existing terminal products while minimizing migration costs.
The latest-generation Wi-Fi 4 transceiver chip from AltoBeam achieves the following key improvements while retaining its existing performance advantages:
An additional standalone short-range wireless communication protocol is integrated to enable fast Wi-Fi paring and seamless interaction with peripheral devices.
Optimized Wi-Fi core architecture improves key performance metrics while lowering overall transceiver power consumption.
Committed to in-house core technology development, AltoBeam supplies high-quality IC products to global markets. Over the past few years, the company has released three generations of self-developed cores and more than a dozen variants of single-band single-antenna Wi-Fi 4 chips into mass production. In H1 2023, AltoBeam also launched its self-developed high-performance Wi-Fi 6 chips. With outstanding product performance, prompt and thoughtful technical services and steady chip supply, AltoBeam has gained wide recognition and adoption from customers in markets with stringent requirements for data throughput and connection stability. Specifically, the ATBM6031/6032/6012B series ranks first among domestic alternatives by market share in smart TV and wireless camera sectors. Meanwhile, the ultra-low-power ATBM6441 is also widely popular across various types of battery-powered terminal sectors, especially in the high-end overseas intelligent security and surveillance market.
Thanks to enhanced performance and newly added functionalities, the new chip lineup has gained strong customer traction immediately upon launch. With comprehensive technical support from AltoBeam, multiple partners have finished rapid product migration and commenced large-volume shipments worldwide, helping them sustain competitive edges amid fierce market competition.
