Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called "Type 2GF," which is designed to help increase the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In the past few years, as the IoT market has grown, there has been an increase in IoT devices that come with wireless communication capabilities. These devices now require a variety of specific wireless communication features depending on their intended use. Additionally, there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for devices that are powered by batteries.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption capabilities by incorporating their own wireless design technology and product processing technology, along with the CYW43022. This 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.
