Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module: Revolutionizing Battery-Powered IoT Devices
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called the "Type 2GF" that is designed to support battery-powered IoT devices. This module features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen a growth in applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. The requirements for wireless communication functions have become more varied, depending on the specific application. Additionally, there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
To meet the need for low power consumption in electronic devices, Murata has utilized their wireless design and product processing technology to create a product that includes the CYW43022 chip. This chip enables the device to maintain connectivity even when the main processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities. This helps reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product's design includes smaller noise shields, allowing for a more compact size and efficient use of space.
