Cypress MCUs drive Darfon's wireless mice

Cypress Semiconductor Corp. announced that Darfon Electronics Corp.'s new generation of wireless mice will use Cypress's WirelessUSB LP 2.4GHz radio SoC and enCoRe II flash microcontrollers. The mice will be marketed under the Elecom and BenQ brands.

Darfon's innovative wireless mice are recognized for their compact designs that allow users to store the receiver inside a smart storage compartment of the mouse while not in use. Darfon's newest wireless mice leverage WirelessUSB LP's low-power consumption for longer battery life and its robust interference immunity for excellent performance.

"The WirelessUSB LP device helped us deliver new mice with robust 2.4GHz connectivity and low power consumption for extended battery life," said Josh Tsai, product marketing director at Darfon. "In addition, Cypress's whole product one-stop shop provided a complete reference design, development tools, and outstanding applications and technical support, allowing us to reduce the design cycle for these innovative, convenient mice, which are ideal for on-the-go end users."

"We are pleased that Darfon has again selected Cypress's WirelessUSB and enCoRe technologies to deliver end-to-end connectivity for their sleek, high-performance wireless mice," said Matt Branda, senior product marketing manager of Cypress's human interface device business unit.
