Product details
Overview
IS1871SF-202-TRAY from Microchip Technology is a Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy System-on-Chip (SoC) integrating a 2.4 GHz transceiver, 256 KB Flash, 15 GPIO pins, 6-channel 12-bit ADC (ENOB=10 bits), and AES-CMAC hardware engine in a 4 mm × 4 mm 32QFN package. It operates from 1.9V to 3.6V across –40°C to +85°C and supports beacon applications with –90 dBm Rx sensitivity and 0 dBm Tx output.
For engineers reviewing the IS1871SF-202-TRAY datasheet, IS1871SF-202-TRAY pinout, IS1871SF-202-TRAY application, or IS1871SF-202-TRAY equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world use-value per application, and two confirmed alternative parts for IoT sensor nodes, wearable health monitors, proximity beacons, and secure payment peripherals.
Technical Context
The IS1871SF-202-TRAY implements an 8051 MCU core running Microchip's Bluetooth LE stack, with integrated RF transceiver compliant to Bluetooth v5.0 core specification, including enhanced throughput and FIPS-compliant encryption. Its PMU includes a 1.55V buck converter, 1.28V RFLDO, and 1.2V CLDO, enabling ultra-low-power operation down to 1.0 μA in shutdown mode.
It features a hybrid I/O architecture supporting configurable GPIO, ADC, and PWM on shared pins - specifically 6 ADC channels (AD0–AD5), 1 PWM channel (P2_1), and UART HCI interface (HCI_TXD/HCI_RXD). The default factory firmware enables ADC, PTS, GPIO, and PWM; SPI and I2C require firmware customization via Microchip support.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for IS1871SF-202-TRAY?
The IS1871SF-202-TRAY is rated for industrial operation from –40°C to +85°C, with full Bluetooth v5.0 RF certification and electrical performance validated across this range. This makes IS1871SF-202-TRAY suitable for outdoor beacons, automotive cabin sensors, and factory-floor monitoring where ambient extremes are expected.
Does IS1871SF-202-TRAY include an integrated temperature sensor?
Yes, IS1871SF-202-TRAY integrates a Precision Temperature Sensor (PTS) with 12-bit/°C resolution and ±3°C accuracy over –40°C to +85°C. It requires no external calibration and is accessible via dedicated register reads in the factory firmware - eliminating the need for discrete thermal ICs in wearables and environmental sensors.
How many ADC channels does IS1871SF-202-TRAY support?
IS1871SF-202-TRAY provides six 12-bit SDM-ADC channels (AD0–AD5), each mapped to specific GPIO pins (e.g., P0_0–P0_5, P1_2–P1_3). These support full-scale input ranges from 0 V to 3.6 V and deliver 10-bit effective number of bits (ENOB) at 32 kHz sampling - ideal for battery voltage and analog sensor monitoring.
Is IS1871SF-202-TRAY pin-compatible with IS1870SF-202-TRAY?
No, IS1871SF-202-TRAY is not pin-compatible with IS1870SF-202-TRAY. While both share functional similarity, IS1871SF-202-TRAY uses a 32-pin QFN (4×4 mm) versus IS1870SF-202-TRAY's 48-pin QFN (6×6 mm), and pin assignments differ significantly - e.g., P1_2 on IS1871 maps to P1_2 on IS1870, but IS1870 has additional ADC, PWM, and event counter pins absent in IS1871SF-202-TRAY.
What power modes does IS1871SF-202-TRAY support?
IS1871SF-202-TRAY supports three key low-power states: active mode (10 mA peak Tx/Rx), reduced-current mode (60 µA), and shutdown mode (1.0–2.9 µA). These are managed by the integrated PMU and Always-On Logic block, enabling multi-year battery life in beacon and sensor applications - all validated per DS60001371G Section 3.1.
