Safe, Low-Mileage Drivers Can Save More, Faster with Snapshot Discount from Progressive

MAYFIELD VILLAGE, Ohio -- More than 100,000 MyRate customers countrywide get personalized car insurance rates by sharing how, how much, and when they drive with Progressive. Now, with Snapshot Discount SM – the new version of MyRate® – Ohio drivers can save up to 30 percent more on their insurance after just 30 days of driving. In addition, customers only need to share six months of driving data.

The Si4010 contains an embedded 8051-compatible MCU core with 4 kB of RAM, 8 kB of one-time programmable (OTP) non-volatile memory, a 128-bit EEPROM and 12 kB of ROM for library functions. These ROM-based functions enable developers to easily implement complex features such as security encryption into their remote controls by using proven code to reduce risk and development time. The MCU’s on-chip digital peripherals include wake-on-touch general-purpose I/Os (GPIOs), a patented 20-bit EEPROM counter providing one million cycles of read/write endurance, an LED driver, sleep timers, a debugger and a high-speed 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) accelerator for secure one-way links.“Our new Snapshot Discount is easier to understand and more attractive to drivers. We know from our research that this version will be more appealing because drivers can save money after just 30 days instead of six months. Plus, customers only have to give us a snapshot of their driving for one policy period, then they don’t have to worry about the device anymore.”For additional EZRadio product information and to purchase samples and development tools, please visit www.silabs.com/pr/wireless.Note to editors: Silicon Laboratories, Silicon Labs, the “S” symbol, the Silicon Laboratories logo, and the Silicon Labs logo are trademarks of Silicon Laboratories Inc.
