Murata Introduces Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module for Battery-Powered IoT Devices
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to help expand the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module is compact and features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy technology.
The IoT market has seen an increase in applications in recent years, leading to a rise in IoT equipment that includes wireless communication capabilities. Different specifications for wireless communication functions are now required depending on the specific application. In addition, there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
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 chip. This chip enables connectivity to be maintained even when the host processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities. As a result, the product consumes less power at the system level. Additionally, space savings were achieved by using smaller noise shields on the module, making the product more compact.
