Now at Mouser: Silicon Labs' EFR32xG24 Channel-Sounding Pro Kit for Developing Bluetooth Channel Sound Products

April 7, 2025 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry's leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, is now stocking the EFR32xG24 channel-sounding pro kit from Silicon Labs. With the EFR32xG24 kit, developers can quickly create and prototype products that use channel sounding to measure the distance between Bluetooth-connected devices. Channel sounding is used in applications such as smart home locks, phone locators, pet trackers, and industrial and commercial Internet of Things (IoT) solutions such as geofencing and access control.

The Silicon Labs EFR32xG24 channel-sounding pro kit, now available at Mouser, provides a complete reference design for the EFR32xG24 wireless system-on-chips (SoCs). The Pro Kit includes two wireless pro kit mainboards, two dipole antennas, and two radio boards. Additional features include an advanced energy monitor (AEM), packet trace interface (PTI), a virtual COM port, and a SEGGER J-link onboard debugger. For reliable performance across applications, the EFR32xG24 channel-sounding pro kit offers Ethernet and USB connectivity and a Silicon Labs relative humidity and temperature sensor. Channel Sounding is a new protocol stack for accurately measuring the distance between two Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) connected devices. The devices, one the initiator and the other the reflector, exchange information across 72 RF physical channels — the initiator transmits, and the reflector responds. The two devices then exchange packets and calculate the distance between them based on the time it took for the packets to travel back and forth.

The product's channel sounding's cross-verification process helps detect anomalies to ensure applications are secure, which is critical when developing access control solutions for hospitals and industrial buildings. Bluetooth Channel Sounding uses Phase-Based Ranging (PBR), Round Trip Time (RTT), or both for accurate coordination across the 2.4 GHz spectrum.
