90% of the electronics in an smart watch can be delivered by TOP-electronics

Developing a smartwatch wearable involves a combination of hardware and software components to create a device that offers various features and functionalities while being worn on the wrist.

The TOP team is helping companies that design and manufacture these kind of wearables, with the best solutions.

Ambiq is market leader in lowest power MCUs / SoCs in the industry. With their Apollo family, they provide a nice range of extreme low power products, to control the whole application, like a watch or any other wearable. With the powerful ARM cortex M4F, an Apollo could optional have a “blue” version, which is a connectivity for Bluetooth LE.

Raltron Electronics is used for the frequency control products, an oscillator to run the MCU. The MCU can control a small TFT/AMOLED display with a touch screen for fully controlling the watch. This is done by Yeebo International Holdings Ltd.

Measuring the movements, the number of steps, speed and fall-detection, is possible by a CEVA motion sensor, that has 9-axis and an accelerometer which will give high accuracy.

Communication with the wearable could be done by voice, thru a Goertek Microelectronics MEMS microphone, and also via the sensors for pressure and heartrate.

The audio signal is able to convert by the codec from Tempo Semiconductor.

A small GPS receiver is from Quectel, and also a small antenna for location based activities.

To charge the wearable/watch, the wall-adapters from FSP Technology are small, efficient and good to customize.
