1 Energy Friendly Microcontrollers
1.1 Typical Applications
The EFM32G Gecko is the ideal choice for demanding 8-, 16-, and 32-bit energy sensitive applications.
These devices are developed to minimize the energy consumption by lowering both the power and the
active time, over all phases of MCU operation. This unique combination of ultra low energy consumption
and the performance of the 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 processor, help designers get more out of the
available energy in a variety of applications.
Ultra low energy EFM32G microcontrollers are perfect for:
• Gas metering
• Energy metering
• Water metering
• Smart metering
• Alarm and security systems
• Health and fitness applications
• Industrial and home automation

1.2 EFM32G Development
Because EFM32G use the Cortex-M3 CPU, embedded designers benefit from the largest development
ecosystem in the industry, the ARM ecosystem. The development suite spans the whole design
process and includes powerful debug tools, and some of the world’s top brand compilers. Libraries with
documentation and user examples shorten time from idea to market.
The range of EFM32G devices ensure easy migration and feature upgrade possibilities.
