1 Product overview

The RW610 is a highly integrated, low-power Wireless MCU with an integrated MCU and Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth

Low Energy (LE) radios designed for a broad array of applications. Applications include connected smart home

and appliances, enterprise and industrial automation and smart energy.

The RW610 MCU subsystem includes a 260 MHz Arm® Cortex®-M33 core with TrustZone™-M, 1.2 MB onchip

SRAM. The RW610 also includes a Quad SPI interface with high bandwidth, and an on-the-fly decryption

engine for securely accessing off-chip XIP flash and PSRAM.

The RW610 includes a full-featured 1x1 dual-band (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz) 20 MHz Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) subsystem

bringing higher throughput, better network efficiency, lower latency, and improved range over previous

generation Wi-Fi standards. The Bluetooth LE radio supports 2 Mbit/s high-speed data rate, and long range and

extended advertising.

The RW610 is an ideal device for Matter applications running over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. This capability enables

Matter functionality for local and cloud-based control, and for monitoring of IoT products seamlessly across

major ecosystems.

EdgeLock™ security technology of NXP is incorporated, offering secure boot, secure debug, secure firmware

updates, and secure life cycle management as well as hardware cryptography and Physically Unclonable

Function (PUF) for secure key management.

The advanced design of the RW610 delivers tight integration, low power, and highly secure operation in a

space- and cost-efficient wireless MCU requiring only a single 3.3 V power supply.
