Murata Revolutionizes IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module for Battery-Powered Devices
Murata has launched a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called "Type 2GF" in partnership with Infineon Technologies. This module is designed to help increase the adoption of battery-powered IoT devices.
The IoT market has grown in the past few years, leading to an increase in IoT devices that use wireless communication. Different applications now have varying requirements for wireless communication functions. In particular, there is a need for wireless communication in battery-powered devices to consume less power.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by incorporating CYW43022, which has connectivity processing capabilities that allow it to maintain connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode. This chip helps reduce power consumption at the system level by handling Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Additionally, space on the module was saved by using smaller noise shields, resulting in a more compact product.
