Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called the "Type 2GF" that is designed to help expand the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In the last few years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the variety of applications, leading to a growing demand for IoT equipment with wireless communication capabilities. The requirements for wireless communication functions vary depending on the specific application. In the case of devices that are powered by batteries, there is also a need for wireless communication functions to consume less power.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption capabilities by incorporating CYW43022 into it, using their wireless design technology and product processing technology. The CYW43022 chip allows for connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields on the module, saving space.
