Digi-Key Ships IoTize’s Line of TapNLink Products Worldwide
Digi-Key is availing to its customers worldwide, IoTize’s line of TapNLink products for Bluetooth and NFC communication. Under a new distribution contract, Digi-Key will resell a range of products from IoTize, designers and manufacturers of plug-n-play wireless connectivity solutions for microcontroller-based embedded systems.
TapNLink products allow the user to take an existing MCU application that does not have wireless connectivity and add it using only 2 GPIO pins and without modifying the application’s original firmware.TapNLink reduces design effort and risks by a factor of ten, speeding time-to-market of smartphone-based interfaces for product configuration, monitoring, and control.
