Why Choose Nordic Semiconductor
Nordic Semiconductor core strengths lie in its leading ultra-low power wireless technology, comprehensive product portfolio, and robust developer ecosystem.
In Bluetooth LE and 2.4GHz proprietary wireless, Nordic Semiconductor is the undisputed market leader. The nRF52 Series multi-protocol SoCs integrate a powerful and efficient 64MHz Arm Cortex-M4 CPU, supporting Bluetooth LE, Thread, Zigbee, and Matter. The new-generation nRF54 Series, built on 22nm process technology, integrates a proprietary NPU (Neural Processing Unit) and supports Bluetooth LE and Bluetooth Channel Sounding. The nRF54L Series entry-level SoCs support all Bluetooth 5.4 features, Bluetooth Mesh, Thread, and Matter, with the flexibility to adapt to future Bluetooth specification updates.
In ANT/ANT+, ANT™ is an ultra-low power wireless sensor network protocol operating in the 2.4GHz ISM band. Nordic Semiconductor offers a broad portfolio of ANT SoCs, with the flagship nRF5340 being the world‘s first wireless SoC with dual Arm® Cortex®-M33 processors. Advanced nRF52 Series SoCs can run both ANT and Bluetooth LE protocols simultaneously, with time-shared radio scheduling ensuring autonomous operation and continuous connectivity.
In cellular IoT, Nordic Semiconductor continues to expand its portfolio based on the industry-leading nRF91 Series. The nRF9151 is the flagship LTE-M/NB-IoT module, now with 3GPP-compliant satellite NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) connectivity. In 2026, Nordic Semiconductor launched two major new cellular IoT product families: the nRF92 Series and nRF93 Series. The nRF92 Series delivers the smallest, most integrated, and most power-efficient cellular IoT solution, featuring a high-performance application MCU and ultra-low power edge AI via the Nordic Axon NPU. The nRF93 Series provides LTE Cat 1 bis solutions with 10 Mbps downlink and 5 Mbps uplink. Nordic Semiconductor is also collaborating with lead customers on next-generation 5G eRedCap technology.
Nordic Semiconductor provides complete chip-to-cloud solutions including nRF Cloud lifecycle services, supporting FOTA updates, observability, remote debugging, and location services. The company is the first in wireless IoT to offer AI-assisted workflows from prototype to deployed device fleets.
