System Structure
RTL8762EMF is designed specifically for smart locks, focusing on providing Bluetooth wireless connectivity for inter-device communication.
The RTL8762CKF/RTL8762DKF-VS serve as the main control chips for smart locks, responsible for connecting and managing various peripherals to enable basic functions such as password unlocking. These chips feature low power consumption and fast response times, meeting fundamental requirements. For higher security functions like fingerprint recognition, they need to be paired with a dedicated security chip to operate together.
RTL8772GWF & RTL8762GKH are Bluetooth SoC Solutions optimized for smart locks.
RTL8772GWF features a Real-M300V 125MHz MCU (Cortex-M55 compatible) with ample SRAM resources to support fingerprint algorithm processing. It integrates hardware-level security mechanisms like Trust Zone and has obtained PSA-L2 certification, providing financial grade security for smart door lock applications. The QFN88 package offers up to 56 general purpose GPIOs, supporting rich peripheral interfaces through pin multiplexing, making it suitable as a single-chip solution for smart door locks.
RTL8762GKH also provides sufficient computing power for fingerprint algorithms while maintaining PSA-L2 security level. Its compact QFN48 package is designed for main control solutions requiring fewer peripheral interfaces.
Realtek partners with financial grade security solution providers to deliver complete security solutions from chip to system level, accelerating smart door lock product development and deployment.
