Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizing Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata is now offering a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called the "Type 2GF" that is designed to help expand the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module contains the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
The IoT market has seen an increase in the variety of applications in recent years, leading to a higher demand for IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. Different applications require wireless communication functions with specific specifications. Additionally, there is a growing need for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to have lower power consumption.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by integrating CYW43022 using their own wireless design 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.
