Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module: Revolutionizing Battery-Powered IoT Devices
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 features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In the past few years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the variety of applications available, leading to a higher demand for IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. Different applications now require wireless communication functions with specific specifications tailored to their needs. Additionally, there is a growing need for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to have lower power consumption.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by integrating CYW43022 with proprietary wireless design and product processing technology. The CYW43022 chip enables connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, space was saved on the module by using smaller noise shields, making the product more compact.
