5.2 subsystems and a power management unit into a single chip, said the company Thursday. The 130A also incorporates an audio DSP, enabling device makers to easily build voice assistants into their products, it said: “Advanced connectivity technologies like Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 will become a must-have for smart home devices with the increasing need for more AI processing power, energy efficiency and robust security.” MediaTek also said Thursday it's partnering with Advanced Micro Devices to "co-engineer" Wi-Fi 6E modules for laptop and desktop PC connectivity. The collaboration will yield modules with fast Wi-Fi speeds, low latency and less interference from other signals, it said.
