Nordic Semiconductor (Nordic for short) is a fabless semiconductor company specializing in the R&D, design and sales of IC technologies that powers the Internet of Things (IoT). Nordic was established in 1983 and has now become a leading company in wireless technology.

Headquartered in Norway, Nordic has about 1,500 employees worldwide. Our award-winning Bluetooth Low Energy solutions pioneered ultra-low power wireless, making us a global market leader. Our technology range was later supplemented by ANT+, Thread and Zigbee, and in 2018 we launched our low power, compact LTE-M/NB-IoT cellular IoT solutions to extend the penetration of the IoT. The Nordic portfolio was further complemented by Wi-Fi technology in 2021.

As a pioneer in wireless technology, Nordic is a member of the ANT+ Alliance, Bluetooth SIG, Thread Group, Connectivity Standards Alliance, Wi-Fi Alliance, and GSMA.

We built our market reputation by supplying leading-edge wireless technologies supported by development tools that shield the designer from RF complexity, allowing anyone with a bright idea to build innovations based on the IoT platform. Today, our award-winning, high-performance, yet easy to design-in, Bluetooth LE solutions are used by the world’s leading brands in a variety of products, including wireless PC peripherals, gaming, sports and fitness, mobile phone accessories, consumer electronics, toys, healthcare and automation.

According to the report of Bluetooth SiG, in the past five years, Nordic-enabled qualified Bluetooth products have accounted for over 40% of the market share.
Nordic Semiconductor, a core member of the CSA China alliance, has played a crucial role in the development, enhancement, and promotion of Matter. It creates user-friendly development software and hardware to simplify the engineers' development process.

In 2023 Nordic redefined its leadership in Bluetooth Low Energy with the introduction of the next generation nRF54 Series SoCs which offers customers higher performance, lower energy consumption and many new and innovative features. The nRF54 Series, is a groundbreaking addition to the globally market-leading Bluetooth® Low Energy Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) line-up.

Besides, the Power Management IC (PCIM) series simplifiy power management system design by integrating essential functions into a compact package. The Evaluation Kit enables easy evaluation and implementation. Ideal for battery-operated applications, it reduces an end-product’s Bill-of-Materials (BoM) by combining circuitry that typically requires five or more discrete components into a single chip.

Nordic provides optimal solutions for the Internet of Things industry, consistently simplifying the development process to help companies expedite product development and market launch.

Nordic's Developer Academy, DevAcademy, and development community, DevZone, are designed to guide developers from entry-level to proficiency. These platforms also foster a technical community where developers can exchange knowledge and resolve questions. With expert guidance, a robust learning community, and a strong technical team, Nordic paves the way for all IoT companies to adopt wireless technology.
