Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has released a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to help increase the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy functionality.
The IoT market has seen a growth in the variety of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. Different applications require specific specifications for wireless communication functions. In the case of battery-powered devices, there is a demand for wireless communication functions to have lower power consumption.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption capabilities by integrating the CYW43022 chip, which has connectivity processing capabilities that allow for connectivity maintenance even when the host processor is in sleep mode. This helps reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, space on the module was saved by using smaller noise shields, resulting in a more compact product.
