Complete cloud-based ecosystem removes development obstacles for IoT device OEMs through trusted partners and state-of-the-art building blocks
PHOENIX, US – Media
OutReach – 8 February 2020 – Leading
global technology solutions provider Avnet (Nasdaq: AVT) and ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy efficient innovations, have
joined forces to create a framework that helps OEMs more rapidly
develop end-to-end Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The collaboration simplifies
the process of building IoT-enabled devices through rapid prototyping system solutions
from ON Semiconductor that are preconfigured to connect to IoT application
developers and service providers through the cloud. Avnet’s IoTConnect® Platform,
powered by Microsoft® Azure and the associated Avnet IoT Partner Program
facilitate this connection. The first supported solution from ON Semiconductor
is the RSL10 Sensor Development Kit, which features the industry’s lowest power
Flash-based Bluetooth® Low Energy radio and an array of advanced environmental
sensors.
Through this collaboration, Avnet and
ON Semiconductor remove as much complexity from the IoT development process as
possible. This allows OEMs to easily build products and experiences around
those products and bring them to market faster, while at the same time lowering
risk. Avnet and ON Semiconductor offer a selection of pre-integrated hardware
and software solutions with a range of connectivity options. Guidance on
building the solution is also provided for the purposes of simplifying and
speeding development and allowing the OEM to focus on building
market-differentiated solutions.
“With innovative, low-power system solutions
from ON Semiconductor alongside the robust IoTConnect platform, Avnet and ON
Semiconductor provide a secure development environment for jumpstarting any IoT
initiative,” said Wiren Perera, who heads IoT at ON Semiconductor. “IoT
presents a huge opportunity for OEMs to add autonomy to their products via
sensing, connectivity and actuation, which can create new revenue streams and
improve efficiencies. ON Semiconductor and Avnet can help OEMs drive innovation
forward by building smarter devices that address their customers’ needs.”
In addition, an OEM may need many new
skillsets just to get an IoT project started, making it challenging for one
company to get all the pieces to work together seamlessly. This includes
dealing with the complexity of a diverse and global supply chain required to
build then deliver IoT solutions.
“Avnet and ON Semiconductor are offering
solutions to meet the changing needs of OEMs and their customers,” said Lou
Lutostanski, vice president of IoT, Avnet. “We’re providing ways to help OEMs
stay competitive, maximize revenue potential, and design with the right
technologies to create secure IoT solutions.”
