Murata’s New Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Devices
Murata is now selling a low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called the "Type 2GF," designed to support battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the use of wireless communication functions in IoT equipment. Different specifications for wireless communication functions have become more varied depending on the application. Battery-powered devices now require wireless communication functions to have lower power consumption.
To meet the need for low power consumption, Murata utilized their wireless design and product processing technology to create a product with CYW43022 integrated. This chip allows for connectivity maintenance even when the host processor is in sleep mode, reducing power usage at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields on the module.
