XENO+™ WiFi+BLE Nano ML Module is a solderable module and can be used as core ML (Machine Learning) module of new Battery powered ML edge devices of customers so that customers can focus only on adding audio Mics, I2C based sensors and Battery power circuits around this ML module for building their new ML edge devices in short time.This XENO+ Nano ML module is suitable for Always-On-Voice (AOV) and AI for IOT application requirements.

The module has smallest possible size with STM32L4 series ARM Cortex-M4 @ 80MHz, 1MB Flash, 128KB/352KB SRAM, UART/SPI/I2C ports and GPIOs. This module has USB Type C based 5V Power input with serial debug port and Battery power input options. This module has 3 pin SWD pins for SW development and SW debug via STM32CubeIDE for Embedded SW development for the device by the users.

This module has Syntiant NDP120 neural decision processor that runs multiple Audio and Sensor ML applications simultaneously with minimal power consumption. The NDP120 is designed to natively run multiple Deep Neural Networks (DNN) on a variety of architectures, such as CNNs, RNNs and fully connected networks up to 256 layers. The NDP120’s Audio-0 (AUD0) port is interfaced with on-board stereo PDM Mics and thus helps Customers to readily run and test the Audio ML classification applications on this module. The Audio-1 (AUD1) and I2C interface pins are available in the 20x20 castellated header pins so that Customers can build carrier board to interface with external Audio Mics and I2C sensors.

This module includes InnoPhase IoT’s Talaria TWO™ certified WiFi and BLE module INP1014, that provides an integrated WiFi b/g/n and BLE 5.0 with a single PCB antenna. The WiFi is a single-band, 2.4 GHz, 802.11 b/g/n solution with WPA2/WPA3 personal and enterprise security certified and capable of delivering 65 Mbps PHY rate. The integrated BLE with Long Range, Extended ADV, and 2 Mbps PHY can be used for device provisioning.
