Murata Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to help support the growth of battery-powered Internet of Things devices. This module features the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
The IoT market has seen a growth in the variety of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices that have wireless communication capabilities. Different applications require specific specifications for wireless communication functions. In particular, there is a demand for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to have lower power consumption.
To meet the demand for low power consumption devices, Murata utilized their wireless design and product processing technology to create a product that includes the CYW43022 chip. This chip allows for connectivity maintenance even when the main processor is in sleep mode, reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by utilizing smaller noise shields on the module.
