Ultra Low-power Audio and IoT IP

Our family of ultra-low power audio and IoT IPs takes as much power during normal operation as the competition does during power-down

StarICs family of ultra-low power IPs enables significantly extended battery life in audio and IoT applications. The family of IPs have the ability to to configure its power and noise levels on-the-fly, ensuring power is consumed only when it needs to. With one IP from StarIC you can target multiple applications or interface with many different types of inputs now or in the future as your product evolves. As only one IP needs to be sourced to meet multiple projects and requirements, costs and time to market are minimized. Additional IPs are available through an NDA, contact us for more details.
