Murata Revolutionizes IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module for Battery-Powered Devices
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to help expand the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module features the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen a growth in the variety of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices equipped with wireless communication capabilities. Different applications now require specific wireless communication features, and there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
In order to meet the high demand for low power consumption products, Murata utilized their own wireless design technology and product processing technology to create a product that includes the CYW43022 chip. This chip enables the product to maintain connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, helping to reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, by using smaller noise shields, space was saved on the module, resulting in a more compact product.
