Chip selection recommendation

Yunux

Hello, I'm a student planning a smart wearable device project based on Bluetooth 6.0. I'm not very familiar with this chip, so I would greatly appreciate your suggestion. Could you recommend a suitable chip for this type of project and explain your reasons?


In my proposal, I mentioned the TL721X series, but I'd love to learn more and consider other options. Thank you very much!

For a student Bluetooth 6.0 smart wearable project, the TL721x family is the best fit in Telink’s current lineup, and your initial choice is very much on target.

If you prefer to avoid RF layout and antenna tuning in a student project, consider the ML7218X modules, which are based on TL721x:

ML7218D1‑MERCURY‑M0‑PE11: compact module with 20 GPIOs.

ML7218A‑GAIA‑M0‑PE11: larger module offering 47 GPIOs for greater flexibility.

Other Recommended Options：

TLSR922x (TLSR9228H) – also Bluetooth 6.0 and multi‑protocol (BLE, Mesh, Zigbee Pro 2023, Thread, Matter, etc.).

TLSR951x / TLSR952x – dual‑mode (Classic + LE) or audio‑focused SoCs. They are great for wireless headsets or audio‑heavy wearables, but their main advantage is advanced audio (ANC/ENC, LE Audio, Classic Audio) rather than generic sensor‑centric smart bands/watches.
