About Morse Micro
Morse Micro is a semiconductor company that designs and manufactures Wi-Fi HaLow chips, also known as 802.11ah, specifically for the Internet of Things (IoT) market. The company's main offering is a single-chip solution, the MM6108 System on a Chip (SoC), which integrates the radio, PHY, and MAC components. This design aims to provide a small, fast, and low-power connectivity solution with a long reach, which is critical for IoT applications.
The company targets various segments within the IoT space, including smart home devices, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) 2.0, and grid-edge solutions. Its business model revolves around the design and sale of these specialized semiconductor chips to device manufacturers. By focusing on the Wi-Fi HaLow standard, Morse Micro addresses the need for robust, secure, and energy-efficient wireless communication over longer distances than traditional Wi-Fi. The company's expertise is underscored by the involvement of its executive staff in the Wi-Fi HaLow Task Group.
Recent developments include securing $140 million in Series B funding to support growth and achieving Matter certification, which enhances interoperability for its technology within the smart home ecosystem.
