Murata Introduces Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module to Drive Growth in Battery-Powered IoT Devices
Murata has released a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to support battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy technology.
In the past few years, the IoT market has seen a growth in the variety of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices that include wireless communication capabilities. Depending on the specific use case, the requirements for wireless communication functions have become more varied. In the case of devices powered by batteries, there is now a demand for lower power consumption in their wireless communication functions.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by incorporating the CYW43022 chip, which has connectivity features that allow it to maintain connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode. This helps reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product is more compact thanks to the use of smaller noise shields, which saved space on the module.
