The ST60A3H0 and ST60A3H1 offer a new wireless solution to replace cables in electronic devices. These transceivers remove the need for cables and connectors in consumer and industrial applications. 

The ST60A3H0 and ST60A3H1 are cost-effective, enabling designers to create products with slim, stylish cases that are water-resistant and support wireless docking. They feature self-discovery for instant connection, eliminating the need for manual pairing, and their low power consumption preserves battery runtime. Operating in the 60GHz V-band, these transceivers offer multiple connectivity options including eUSB2, I2C, SPI, UART, and GPIO tunneling.

Energy efficiency is a key attribute, with the transceivers using only 130mW in eUSB rx/tx mode and 90mW for other modes, alongside a 23µW shutdown mode. They support high-speed data exchange up to 480Mbit/s, aligning with USB 2.0 High Speed specifications, ensuring fast and responsive wireless connections.

The ST60A3H1 model includes an integrated antenna in a compact 3 x 4 mm VFBGA package, simplifying system design. The ST60A3H0 is tailored for external antenna connection, offering versatility for various applications with a smaller 2.2 x 2.6 mm footprint.

In industrial environments, these transceivers offer advantages such as galvanic isolation and resistance to dust and humidity, making them suitable for equipment like radars and robotic arms. Their design avoids mechanical wear, enhancing reliability and lifespan compared to traditional solutions like slip rings.

The transceivers are easy to use without installing software drivers or protocol stack. In addition to enhancing end-user experiences, they enable fast, efficient contactless product testing and debugging, including loading firmware over the air (FOTA), during manufacture and after sales.


They are currently in full production and are part of ST's 10-year product longevity program, ensuring long-term availability. Samples are available with technical data and pricing accessible under a non-disclosure agreement.
