History

Engineers from Intel Corporation created GainSpan in September 2006 with the goal of reducing the power consumption of traditional Wi-Fi.[9] GainSpan was the first company to optimize Wi-Fi chips for low power consumption and to apply new power management techniques to target long battery life applications.[6][10][11]

Greg Winner was appointed CEO of GainSpan in 2010.[12] In August 2010, GainSpan launched its GS1011M Wi-Fi module that companies can integrate into their products to provide WiFi connectivity.[13]

GainSpan created the GS2000 in 2013. It was the first chip developed to combine both Wi-Fi and ZigBee IP.[14]

In January 2014, GainSpan became the low-power Wi-Fi technology supplier for Solem Electronique's WiFi irrigation controller and Wi-Fi outdoor lighting system.[15]

In January 2015, GainSpan was selected as a partner to integrate its GS2000 modules into Ring's HD video doorbells.[16][17]

In 2017, GainSpan was acquired by Telit Cinterion for US$ 8 million.[18][19] Telit took the 60 software and application tech team based in Bangalore as leverage and used them to expand their research and development facilities.[20]
