Power Supply

The core of the Tiny Gecko chip runs from a 1.2v supply. This is supplied and filtered through the CW308T. The I/O buses are supplied with 3.3v.


Security Features

The Tiny Gecko family of microcontrollers implements many security features including:

  • Hardware implementations of AES-128/256, SHA-224/256

  • Hardware CRC engine

  • Access control for peripherals

For a full list of security features see the product family data sheet[1]


Programming

A serial bootloader is implemented on the Tiny Gecko series of chips. Details for the use of this feature are described in Silicon Labs application note AN0042[2].
