- New Product – Mouser Now Stocking Siretta QUARTZ-GOLD-5G Routers, Supporting Rapid Data Transfer for Industrial IoT Applications
Mouser is now stocking the QUARTZ-GOLD-5G industrial routers from Siretta. These routers are high-speed dual-port gigabit Ethernet industrial routers capable of reaching 2.4 Gbps download and 900 Mbps upload speeds and are designed to transfer large amounts of data via the 5G NR cellular network. The routers offer secure and reliable wireless connectivity for high-speed mobile broadband applications. They feature a robust, compact design, as well as fallback options to 4G/LTE and 3G/UMTS communication should 5G NR be unavailable. The router’s software supports a broad range of high-end VPN security protocols, allowing the router to be safely deployed in commercial and industrial environments. The QUARTZ-GOLD-5G routers are based on a MediaTek 880MHz MIPS dual-core processor with 256 Mbytes flash and 2 Gbytes of DDR3 RAM running on a Linux-based operating system. The cellular capabilities of the routers are powered by the Quectel RM500QAE module, which uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G modem. These routers are an ideal choice for the management of remote systems and communication channels, supporting a range of industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications, including security, renewable energy, traffic control, and environmental monitoring.

- New Product – Mouser Now Shipping Renesas Electronics RA8x1 480MHz Arm Cortex-M85 Microcontrollers with Helium and TrustZone
Mouser is now shipping the RA8M1 and RA8D1 microcontrollers (MCUs) from Renesas Electronics. The RA8x1 MCUs are the industry’s first 32-bit microcontrollers based on an Arm Cortex-M85 (480MHz) core with Helium, delivering breakthrough performance of over 3000 coremarks, and low real-time operation. These microcontrollers are versatile devices with high-performance processing power, robust memory (1 MB SRAM with up to 2 MB code flash memory), multiple external interfaces, and a rich peripheral set optimised for secure, high-performance IoT applications. The RA8x1 devices also feature TrustZone technology, with next-gen cryptography, secure boot and tamper protection, and both DPA and SPA side-channel attack protection for truly secure IoT. The RA8M1 and RA8D1 microcontrollers are supported by the EK-RA8M1 and EK-RA8D1 evaluation kits, both available to order from Mouser. These evaluation kits enable users to effortlessly evaluate the features of the RA8x1 MCUs and develop embedded systems applications with Renesas’ Flexible Software Package (FSP) and the e2 Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to access rich onboard features and flexibility for user’s choice of popular ecosystem add-ons. Ideal applications for the RA8M1 and RA8D1 MCUs include industrial automation, appliances, smart home or building, voice and vision AI, and healthcare applications.

- New Product – Mouser Now Stocking Qorvo’s QPG6105DK Matter and Bluetooth Development Kit, Simplifying IoT Device Development
Mouser is now stocking the QPG6105DK Matter and Bluetooth development kit from Qorvo. The QPG6105DK development kit allows developers to bring Internet of Things (IoT) devices to the market quickly and easily. This development kit is a multi-standard smart home communications controller, which supports Thread, BLUETOOTH mesh, Zigbee, and Matter connectivity, enabling a high level of interoperability and scalability. The development kit features Qorvo’s unique ConcurrentConnect technology that allows multiple protocols to operate simultaneously and communicate across multiple smart home devices concurrently. ConcurrentConnect offers multi-radio and multi-channel capabilities, coexistence, and antenna diversity, simplifying product development for IoT applications. The Matter and Bluetooth development kit consists of a QPG6105 radio board and a separate carrier board, enabling both application development and debugging of the radio board. The carrier board includes a SEGGER J-Link onboard debugger and virtual COM port, humidity, passive infrared (PIR) and hall sensors, and user LEDs and buttons, among other features. The radio board features a QPG6105 SoC with 1 MByte flash, 128 KBytes RAM, and +10 dBm output power. The development kit is ideal for Matter and low-energy product developers building smart home sensors and actuators, smart lighting, thermostats, and other connected end devices.

- New Product – Mouser Now Shipping Taoglas TFX Invisible Flex Antennas for 5G/4G, Wi-Fi and GNSS Applications
Mouser is now stocking TFX Invisible Antenna flex antennas from Taoglas. These flex antennas offer a clear substitute for opaque antenna options for low-profile cellular, Wi-Fi, and GNSS use in mobility, public infrastructure, medical devices, transportation, and emerging IoT applications. The TFX Invisible Antennas are paper-thin and ultra-lightweight, with simple peel-and-stick mounting for any nonmetal surface, including plastic, glass, and screens. The transparent film enables concealed antenna placement and provides access to previously unavailable physical spaces. The new series leverages a sub-millimetre, thick hybrid transparent conductive film to offer designers an invisible antenna solution for higher levels of wireless complexity (including MIMO and mm-Wave), with performance, reliability, and opaque antenna form factors. Heat-resistant and seamless UV-protected transparent material with a click-connect eliminates soldering on all shapes and antenna configurations. The TFX Invisible Antennas are available in three variants for 5G/4G, Wi-Fi and GNSS applications and each includes a FAKRA Code I male connector for ease of installation.
