Looking at Matter Software, Chips and Modules

Oct. 31, 2024

This TechXchange takes a look at various Matter implementations

Matter is an impressive protocol designed to blend the many different IoT protocols and frameworks. The Matter standard is managed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance.

This TechXchange focuses on implementations Matter that developers can use to create Matter-based solutions. This is definitely not an exhaustive list but rather a selection of products and articles that provide a useful insight into what is available to developers.

We will be adding content to the list below as time goes on. Check out our newsletters and the Products of the Week for the latest product articles that include Matter-related solutions.

Wi-Fi

Matter-Enabled Wi-Fi SoC Supports Device Interoperability

InnoPhase IoT integrated ultra-low-power Wi-Fi and Matter v1.2 certification on a single chip to support interoperable smart-home devices.

You can my social media via these links:

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
