Apple's Find My feature enables users to locate their devices and items by leveraging a network of hundreds of millions of Apple products. This system allows for private and secure searches to help users locate lost belongings. The entire process is completely anonymous and protected with end-to-end encryption, ensuring the privacy of user.

Since its introduction, the Find My solution has quickly been adopted for a wide range of everyday items, such as key cards, headphones, luggage, bags, and scooters.

Following Apple's Find My network, Google has also introduced its own Find Hub Device solution for Android. At the core of Google's solution is the Google Fast Pair Service (GFPS), which enables Android devices—such as phones, tablets, earbuds, and watches—as well as compatible items like Bluetooth trackers to be located, secured, and recovered when lost. This functionality helps users track, protect, and retrieve their missing devices and belongings.

The launch of Google's Find Hub Device network has significantly expanded the application scenarios for Find My capabilities. There is a growing demand for products that support both Apple Find My and Google Find Hub protocols within the same device (According to Apple and Google's specifications, only one location protocol can run at a time, and the two protocols cannot operate simultaneously. The Realtek solution strictly adheres to this specification). By leveraging the extensive ecosystem influence of both Apple and Google, dual-protocol Find My products are poised to enable broader and more versatile use cases.

Realtek has introduced a dual-protocol solution supporting both Apple Find My and Google Find Hub networks, based on its RTL8762 series. Customers adopting Realtek's Find My solution have already obtained Apple Find My certification and entered mass production. Recently, the solution has also been approved under Google's Find Hub Device program and is soon to undergo official Google certification.

Realtek's RTL8762 series delivers strong computational performance and ample RAM resources, making it well-suited for the intensive cryptographic algorithm demands of Find My applications. Furthermore, with its ultra-low power consumption and built-in support for hardware-accelerated encryption, the RTL8762 series is an ideal platform for implementing Find My solutions.

Building on its authorization from both the Apple Find My and Google Find Hub working groups, Realtek has achieved full support for the dual-protocol Apple Find My and Google Find Hub networks through the integration of the Apple Find My Accessory Development Kit (ADK) and compliance with the Google Find Hub Device (GFPS) protocol. Realtek's Find My SDK now offers complete compatibility with both ecosystems.

Furthermore, the SDK has been meticulously optimized at the code level to leverage the hardware features of the RTL8762 series, ensuring superior system performance and power efficiency. Customers who are also authorized by the Apple Find My and Google Find Hub programs can use Realtek's Find My SDK/HDK development package to accelerate secondary development and quickly bring products supporting both protocols to market.

Explanation: The diagram above is intended solely to demonstrate that the Realtek Find My solution supports both the Apple Find My and Google Find Hub location protocols. In the actual implementation of the solution, only one of these two location protocols can be operational at any given moment.

Advantages of Realtek's Find My Solution:

 Realtek has fully implemented Apple's Find My network protocol and has successfully assisted multiple clients in passing certification tests, ensuring a stable and reliable solution. Realtek's Google Find Hub solution has also been integrated into customer products and is soon to receive official Google certification.

 Supports multi-link functionality, enabling simultaneous compatibility with both the Find My network protocol and customized private BLE protocols.

 Significantly reduces chip activation time through algorithmic efficiency optimizations, maximizes sleep duration, and achieves breakthrough power consumption reduction.

 Optimizes SRAM usage via dynamic memory management, streamlines code structure to reduce Flash footprint, and substantially improves resource utilization efficiency.

Shanghai Ehong Information Technology Co., Ltd. offers comprehensive Find My solutions and is one of the first authorized Apple Find My Network (FMN) solution providers. In close collaboration with Realtek, Shanghai Ehong promotes Find My solutions. With the recent integration of Google's Find My Device protocol, Ehong is now able to provide customers with dual-protocol solutions supporting both Apple Find My and Google Find Hub based on Realtek's RTL8762E series. Successful use cases already include various products such as e-scooters, smart cups, tags, and NIU e-scooter modules.

On the hardware front, in addition to the COB (Chip-on-Board) approach, Shanghai Ehong also offers module-based solutions utilizing the RTL8762E. Based on the Realtek RTL8762ESF, Ehong has developed two compact modules: the EH-MC25 and EH-MC25B. (Module documentation can be found at: https://www.realmcu.com/en/Home/Partner). These modules are designed to meet diverse application requirements. Both the EH-MC25 and EH-MC25B have obtained BQB, FCC, CE, IC, and Rohs certifications.
