Application overview
In most people’s minds, the term “wearable” and the technological aspects associated with it, usually referto devices such as smart watches and wristbands. However, wearable technology goes far beyond this.
Wearable devices come in various shapes and forms including activity trackers, sports watches, smart
watches, smart glasses, pedometers, health monitors, smart clothing, and so on. Nowadays, wearable
technology is being developed and used to change more than just our social habits: it will improve oureveryday lives, healthcare and safety.
Wearable systems usually consist of the following main components:

Microcontroller unit (MCU):►

Selection of the embedded processor is based on the device’s computing and signal processing requirements.
ARM® Cortex®-M class microcontrollers are popular in wearable SoC devices as they provide best in classcomputing performance and energy efficiency. Some high-end wearables may have a separate microcontroller
to offload the processing of sensor data from the main processor. This is required when the wearable has many
sensors generating lots of data to be analyzed in real time.

Wireless connectivity:►

Important for wearable devices as they need to interact with one or more other devices. Depending on the typeand features offered, the device may need to support different wireless protocols such us Wi-Fi or Bluetooth low
energy (BLE). Typically, a wrist-worn wearable device uses BLE to transfer information collected from its various
sensors such as a heart rate monitor (HRM) to an application on a smartphone.

Sensors:►

Can include activity monitoring sensors like 3-axis accelerometers to track movement in every direction. Some
devices also come with gyroscopes to measure orientation and rotation, and biosensors to monitor biometric data
(e.g. HRM modules).

Application

Solution

Basic wearables

Including activity trackers. The devices are featured with a simple or no display, health and fitness tracking, such as step
counting and sleep monitoring.

Advanced wearables

Besides the features supported by basic wearables, these type of devices normally have a larger color display. GPS isoften included to support standalone outdoor tracking activities.

Advanced wearables

Basic wearables include activity trackers, pedometers, and other simple devices. These have the capability
to connect and communicate to a network usually by a BLE connection.

Besides the function offered by basic wearables, advanced wearable products offer more comprehensive
features. Two typical advanced wearables are smart watches and sports watches.

Activity trackers account for the majority of the shipments in the basic wearable category. They lack theadvanced features and user interface (UI) found in advanced wearables. As they usually have a simple
or even no display, most of the sensor readings are transmitted via BLE to a smartphone for visual
representation.

Smart watches can be connected to a smartphone and notify the user about missed calls, messages, andusually email and social media.

Dialog addresses the basic and advanced wearable markets using a common platform. SmartBond
wireless SoCs are at the heart of the system, not only handling wireless communication but also taking
care of application tasks such as user interface, operating system, and processing of the fitness algorithms.
In addition, Dialog provides a portfolio of ICs which can be combined to complete your system:

High end sport watches are ideal for users who enjoy sporting activities such as running, cycling, swimmingor hiking. These devices are equipped with sensors for tracking fitness such as a HRM, as well as GPS
functionality.
Due to the complexity of advanced wearables, a separate microcontroller is normally selected to handle
application tasks. Dialog addresses the advanced wearable market with a portfolio of ICs which can be
combined to complete a customer’s system such as:Bluetooth low energy

Haptics

DA728x Family Overview

Haptics technology recreates the sense of touch to the user by applying forces and vibrations in the formof touch feedback in displays, touch surfaces and buttons.

The DA728x - High definition, low power and flexible:
The DA728x family of High-Definition (HD) Haptic Drivers, combine custom drive sequences, on- and off
resonance, at up to 1kHz. The device can drive both ERM and LRA (narrow and wideband) actuators andtrack resonance up to 300Hz to drive the most complex click/vibration touch effects in a wide range ofapplications.

Wideband LRA driver: 25Hz to 1kHz with resonant mode Frequency tracking support up to
300Hz
Drives LRAs off-resonance for custom effects, or dual resonant systems for two-dimensional
vibration
Up to 500mA output current
Drive large or small LRAs and ERMs for the best haptic experience
360nA idle power mode with full I²C control and memory retention
Ultra-low power consumption means longer battery life

Saving power when idle:

Only 0.75ms latency when responding from ultra-low idle power state

As haptic drivers spend the majority of their time in standby/idle mode, the DA728x family was designed toutilize very low idle current consumption (360nA) to maximize battery life.

On-the-fly diagnostics

The DA7282 has an additional standby mode where current consumption drops to 5nA,
making it an ideal driver for systems where the highest priority is current consumption
when not in use.
The DA728x family combines very low idle current consumption with low-latency trigger inputs to minimize
system power consumption. Integrated trigger inputs allow haptic operation without waking the application
processor, and latency times at sub-1ms give real switch behavior - 10x better than any other solution
available today.

Detect issues with the LRA/ERM Automatically and generate interrupts

Haptics

DA728x Family Overview

Haptics technology recreates the sense of touch to the user by applying forces and vibrations in the formof touch feedback in displays, touch surfaces and buttons.

The DA728x - High definition, low power and flexible:
The DA728x family of High-Definition (HD) Haptic Drivers, combine custom drive sequences, on- and off
resonance, at up to 1kHz. The device can drive both ERM and LRA (narrow and wideband) actuators andtrack resonance up to 300Hz to drive the most complex click/vibration touch effects in a wide range ofapplications.

Wideband LRA driver: 25Hz to 1kHz with resonant mode frequency tracking
support up to 300Hz
Drives LRAs off-resonance for custom effects, or dual resonant systems
for two-dimensional vibration
Up to 500mA output current
Drive large or small LRAs and ERMs for the best haptic experience
360nA idle power mode with full I²C control and memory retention
Ultra-low power consumption means longer battery life

Saving power when idle:

Only 0.75ms latency when responding from ultra-low idle power state

As haptic drivers spend the majority of their time in standby/idle mode, the DA728x family was designed toutilize very low idle current consumption (360nA) to maximize battery life.

On-the-fly diagnostics

The DA7282 has an additional standby mode where current consumption drops to 5nA,
making it an ideal driver for systems where the highest priority is current consumption
when not in use.
The DA728x family combines very low idle current consumption with low-latency trigger inputs to minimize
system power consumption. Integrated trigger inputs allow haptic operation without waking the application
processor, and latency times at sub-1ms give real switch behavior - 10x better than any other solution
available today.

Detect issues with the LRA/ERM Automatically and generate interrupts

Beacon and tracker wireless charging

Trackers are similar to beacons but whereas beacons are usually built to be part of a fixed infrastructure,
trackers are designed to be attached to mobile objects to track their whereabouts.

The beacon and tracker device can be charged wirelessly by using WattUp® technology developed by
Energous, which is an innovative RF-based charging solution that delivers intelligent and scalable power
via RF bands. WattUp differs from older wireless charging convention by delivering power at a distancewhich can charge multiple proximity devices – enabling a completely wire-free system with no need toplug into wired chargers. Dialog Bluetooth low energy devices communicate all charge control instructions
between transmitter and receiver sub-system.

Trackers are designed to be two-way communication devices such that they can transmit their data as well
as be controlled or triggered to issue an alarm from the smart device - for situations where a device is lost,
allowing the user to track its whereabouts.
As well as Bluetooth low energy, advanced trackers combine additional radios to help track devices overa longer distance or outdoors.
Battery lifetime is a prime requirement for all tracker applications. Dialog’s proximity solutions provide acomplete industry-leading low power IC portfolio:

DA14495

Integrated 1.9 MHz DECT radio87Efficient processing power
SmartBeat audio processors integrate an efficient 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-M0 microcontroller (MCU) and a
C-programmable 32-bit Cadence® (Tensilica®) HiFi 3 DSP. This combination ensures a small, low-power
solution with all the performance necessary – and more - for smart speakers offering outstanding soundquality and ambient noise cancellation. Moreover, the MCU operating frequency can be scaled to further
reduce power consumption, while the DSP is supported by a wide range of 3rd-party audio algorithms.

Flexible memory architecture
The audio processor’s shared memory architecture comprises onboard cache, system RAM and DSP RAM.
For maximum design flexibility, the MCU code (executed in place) and DSP code is stored in external QSPIFlash memory so that memory costs can be tailored to suit application requirements.

Low Power Wi-Fi® SoCs
Ultra-low power Wi-Fi enables battery powered IoT devices to connect
easily and directly to Wi-Fi networks while delivering maximum battery
life of over a year in most applications.

Versatile power management
With its integrated step-down converter, the audio processor can be powered directly from USB or bybatteries ranging from 1.9 to 5 V. A high-precision fuel gauge maximizes battery lifetime so users always
know how much music playtime remains. Meanwhile the dead battery wake-up feature ensures the display
works no matter how long the product has been on the shelf – so buyers don’t confuse a flat battery for a
faulty product.

Dialog’s DA16200 is a highly integrated ultra-low power Wi-Fi system on a chip (SoC), which contains an
802.11b/g/n radio (PHY), baseband processor, media access controller (MAC), on-chip memory and ahost networking applications processor integrated onto a single silicon die. The SoC enables full offload
capabilities, running the entire networking stack on chip. As a result, no external network processor, CPU,or micro-controller is required, though the SoC may be used with a microcontroller as a design option.

Consumer-friendly connections

The deployment of breakthrough ultra-low power technologies enables highly efficient operation within
the SoC: Low power algorithms shut down every micro element of the chip that is not in use, allowing
a near zero level of power consumption when not actively transmitting or receiving data. Such ultra-low
power operation delivers maximum battery life of over a year in most applications. Advanced sleep mode
algorithms conserve battery power until the exact moment required to wake up to transmit or receive.

SmartBeat audio processors integrate a USB 2.0 FS/HS port which supports USB charging specifications
1.2. It offers data rates up to 480 Mbps for excellent voice and music quality, and is fully compatible with
USB-Type C – an emerging smartphone connectivity option. Moreover, the audio processor supports two
different HCI clocking schemes - easily combining with any Bluetooth HCI - or simply use the version with
the integrated 1.9 GHz interference-free radio.

Modular and open software architecture
Audio processor architectural layering and towering ensures a highly versatile and easily extendible
software platform. It provides all the building blocks needed plus the flexibility to create custom home
automation solutions. Power management is a core component, while the flexible audio API allows you to
set up multiple streams independently. Software is available as source code, so it can be fully customized.
To maximize flexibility and customization, Dialog offers a powerful yet compact embedded developmentkit. Furthermore a host of CODECs, sound enhancements and other audio packages are available from
Dialog and third parties.

88

This advanced SoC is built specifically for IoT applications. It is ideally suited for door lock, thermostat,security camera and sensor applications - almost any device that uses Wi-Fi where highly efficient battery
powered operation is desired.
Evaluation boards and a complete software development kit (SDK) are available. The SDK comprises all
sample applications, provisioning apps, AT command library and power management tools required for
rapid implementation.
A fully staffed, highly trained, worldwide application engineering support team is available to help customers
quickly integrate the SoC or its associated module into their products.

Haptics

DA728x Family Overview

Haptics technology recreates the sense of touch to the user by applying forces and vibrations in the formof touch feedback in displays, touch surfaces and buttons.

The DA728x - High definition, low power and flexible:
The DA728x family of High-Definition (HD) Haptic Drivers, combine custom drive sequences, on- and off
resonance, at up to 1kHz. The device can drive both ERM and LRA (narrow and wideband) actuators andtrack resonance up to 300Hz to drive the most complex click/vibration touch effects in a wide range ofapplications.

Wideband LRA driver: 25Hz to 1kHz with resonant mode Frequency tracking support up to
300Hz
Drives LRAs off-resonance for custom effects, or dual resonant systems for two-dimensional
vibration
Up to 500mA output current
Drive large or small LRAs and ERMs for the best haptic experience
360nA idle power mode with full I²C control and memory retention
Ultra-low power consumption means longer battery life

Saving power when idle:

Only 0.75ms latency when responding from ultra-low idle power state

As haptic drivers spend the majority of their time in standby/idle mode, the DA728x family was designed toutilize very low idle current consumption (360nA) to maximize battery life.

On-the-fly diagnostics

The DA7282 has an additional standby mode where current consumption drops
to 5nA, making it an ideal driver for systems where the highest priority is current
consumption when not in use.
The DA728x family combines very low idle current consumption with low-latency trigger inputs to minimize
system power consumption. Integrated trigger inputs allow haptic operation without waking the application
processor, and latency times at sub-1ms give real switch behavior - 10x better than any other solution
available today.

Detect issues with the LRA/ERM Automatically and generate interrupts

Dialog’s AC/DC Technology Benefits Home Appliance Industry

Elimination of circuit elements saves BOM and board space

The recent advances and developments in the home appliances industry are driving considerable growth
and technology innovation provided by leadership companies in the semiconductor market. Consumers
now have high expectations and are investing in value-added features that this technology can bring totheir home appliances.

Dialog’s innovative integrated power design approach reduces BOM cost by eliminating optocouplers,
secondary-side regulator as well as mopping up many miscellaneous discrete parts which takes up lessspace and delivers higher reliability.

Dialog has developed a whole family of products to serve this fast-growing market.
Dialog’s AC/DC Power Conversion products for this sector features the company’s PrimAccurate™
Technology which ensures accurate control of voltage and current in these appliances supplying an
accuracy of ±3% voltage and ±5% constant-current accuracy.

The yardstick of reliability, MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures), is a function of the total number ofcomponents and can be best understood as a series analysis where if one single component fails, thewhole system fails. Dialog’s integration lowers the BOM Count resulting in a higher system-level MTBF withsignificantly fewer solder joints and therefore less failure points.
Another important aspect in induction cooking is the reduction of electromagnetic interference (EMI) which
is a legislative standard to avoid interference caused by radiation or conduction of high frequency switchingproducts within any electronic power device.
Dialog’s EZ-EMI® technology virtually eliminates these unwanted radiation products and saves board
space and cost by removing the need for highly complex input filtering and snubbers to be designed in.
This patented frequency dithering scheme for MOSFET and BJTs reduces overall EMI requiring far simpler
input filter design, lower overall spectral noise and significantly reduced time to market.
In today’s smart home – low energy connectivity in the form of Bluetooth® LE/ IoT solutions for the connected
home are gaining traction as manufacturers build the IoT into their products. Here Dialog already plays animportant and well-established role.

BroadLED™ Digital Technology for Higher
Reliability, Lower Cost Backlighting

AnyMode™ Technology Improves Video
Picture Quality

LED forward voltages vary from LED to LED, which means backlight driver ICs need to drive multiple LED
strings, each with a different total forward voltage at the same ILED current. The difference in string voltages
requires the “shorter” strings in the array to have a higher voltage drop across the current regulating drivercircuits. This results in higher power dissipation and limits the number of LED strings per driver IC. One
solution is to reduce the voltage offset across the drivers by selecting carefully “binned” LED arrays withsimilar forward voltages, but this adds cost.

Dialog’s patented AnyMode™ technology offers simple, yet comprehensive, and flexible features toenhance video picture quality.

Dialog’s patented BroadLED™ adaptive switch technology significantly reduces the voltage offset between
mismatched LED arrays by automatically increasing current and decreasing PWM duty to keep LED
brightness uniform from channel to channel. This reduces heat generation and thermal issues for higher
system reliability. It also lowers BOM cost by allowing control of more LED strings per driver IC (since lessheat needs to be dissipated) and by enabling the use of cheaper, loosely binned LED arrays.

It enables the PWM duty cycle to be updated in each video frame to improve contrast ratio. Additionally,
the human visual system (HVS) stretches and delays the short duration of light when viewing a display,causing motion blur. AnyMode technology generates high intensity, short duration PWM pulses, resulting
in faster fade out and lessening the physiological afterimage effects of the HVS. AnyMode™ technology
also allows user-configurable head or tail delays, providing additional options to reduce motion blur.
