Nordic Semiconductor introduces the nRF71 series, a multi-protocol chip featuring integrated edge AI and significant standby power efficiency gains for battery-operated smart devices.
Nordic announced the nRF71 series on 4 November 2026, a single chip combining Wi-Fi, Bluetooth LE, Thread and edge AI with 20x lower standby power for battery-powered devices. A new product without revenue figures or guidance leaves near-term earnings unchanged, though it supports the long-term competitive position in IoT connectivity.
