Matter Simplicity SDK Extension v2.3.0全面支持Matter 1.3最新标准

SILICON LABS（亦称“芯科科技”）持续强化软硬件产品阵容以领航Matter标准开发，并于日前发布全面支持Matter 1.3最新标准的Matter Simplicity SDK Extension v2.3.0版本，通过软件更新来帮助开发人员基于Simplicity Studio加速构建Matter 1.3应用程序。新版本SDK支持面向Thread和Wi-Fi平台的Matter 1.3网络设计，并引入了诸如Matter/Zigbee并发多协议（Concurrent Multi-Protocol, CMP）照明示例、长空闲时间（Long Idle Time）间歇连接设备（ICD）、Provisioning 2.0和多芯片（Multi-chip）OTA等新功能。

随着新的Matter Simplicity SDK Extension v2.3.0版本推出，芯科科技可支持开发人员采用EFR32MG24多协议无线SoC开发基于Thread的Matter 1.3设备，以及使用SiWx917 Wi-Fi 6 + 低功耗蓝牙SoC来设计Wi-Fi的Matter 1.3设备，广泛的应用包括灯，灯开关，锁，窗罩，恒温器，开/关插头，传感器和洗碗机等。欲了解更多关于新版SDK的信息，请点击文末的阅读原文按钮或访问芯科科技GitHub页面：https://github.com/SiliconLabs/matter_extension/releases/tag/v2.3.0

要开始使用，请从链接下载Simplicity Studio

下载完成后即可安装Simplicity SDK v2024.6.0以及Silicon Labs Matter v2.3.0。对于使用SiWx917的开发者，还需要安装WiSeConnect v3.3.0。
