Murata’s New Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth 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 support battery-powered IoT devices. This module features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, and is now in mass production.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the use of applications, leading to a rise in IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. Different applications now require varying specifications for these wireless communication functions. In particular, there is a growing need for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to have lower power consumption.
In order to meet the demand for low power consumption, Murata utilized their own wireless design technology and product processing technology to integrate CYW43022 into this product. This chip enables connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities, ultimately reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the use of smaller noise shields helped save space on the module, making the product more compact.
