TCM 600 and TCM 615: The new benchmark for EnOcean solutions

With its latest radio transceiver family, EnOcean is setting new benchmarks in the landscape of wireless technology. The upcoming TCM 600 and TCM 615 devices provide significantly more memory and much higher computation power. At the same time. they reduce energy consumption even further.

The increased performance enables new, feature-rich applications based on the latest security requirements. In addition, the reduced energy consumption enhances the energy savings realized by EnOcean solutions.

TCM 600 and TCM 615: Quick and easy implementation and a seamless upgrade

Both the TCM 600 and TCM 615 wireless transceivers enable the creation of next generation, differentiated products based on EnOcean technology.

TCM 615 provides users with a simple, compact, and cost-effective way to add EnOcean radio communication functionality to OEM customer solutions. It is pin-to-pin compatible with the previous TCM 515 device and uses the same, well-established ESP3 interface protocol. Users can therefore directly upgrade existing designs from TCM 515 to TCM 615. Without the need for hardware or software redesign, and thereby immediately benefit from the latest functionality.

With the TCM 600, customers can combine their own application with the latest EnOcean radio communication technology in the same module. This solution is therefore ideal for implementing space-constrained wireless applications such as ultra-compact relays and dimmers.

TCM 600 and TCM 615 will further enhance the leadership of EnOcean in creating a smart, connected and sustainable world. This is supported by the following key features.

A Quantum Leap in Performance

TCM 600 and TCM 615 provide a significant performance boost to enable differentiated applications based on the latest EnOcean technology.

TCM 600 and TCM 615 provides numerous performance enhancements compared to the previous TCM 3xx and TCM 5xx product generations. These include up to four times the computation power and up to eight times the available user application memory. This dramatically extends the available resources for user applications.

Making EnOcean Radio Communication one of the most sustainable globally

TCM 600 and TCM 615 implement the open, industry-leading EnOcean radio communication standard ISO1453-3-10 and ISO14543-3-11. This standard is characterized by high reliability and very low power consumption. Thanks to utilizing small and redundant messages making them ideal for energy harvesting and low power applications.

Combining this technology with a comprehensive set of interoperable communication features provides access to the ecosystem of more than 5000 interoperable devices. The interoperable communication features have been defined by the EnOcean Alliance. Support for the latest encryption and authentication features protects the confidentiality and authenticity of user data as expected by customers.

Increased efficiency and performance thanks to a compact design

Despite the substantial performance boost, both TCM 600 and TCM 615 maintain the space-efficient footprint of previous TCM 515 devices. This requires 30 % less PCB space than the generations before. TCM 600 and TCM 615 are therefore ideally suited for space-constrained applications including ultra-compact relays and dimmers.

Upholding the commitment EnOcean has towards sustainable solutions, this latest generation reduces power consumption by up to 50%. This significantly reduces the energy footprint of the permanently connected solutions.

Milestone for sustainable, wireless connectivity

With its latest radio transceiver family, EnOcean is underlining its strong commitment to the EnOcean Alliance ecosystem. Both TCM 600 and TCM 615 significantly extend the performance and sustainability envelope. They therefore represent an important milestone for sustainable, wireless connectivity.

These modules are ideal for the implementation of a wide range of solutions that are both technologically advanced and environmentally conscious. This is due to their improved performance, their focus on sustainability and their space efficiency.

EnOcean continues to lead the way for a connected world that is both smart and sustainable.
