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 increase the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen a growth in applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. The requirements for wireless communication functions have become more varied depending on the specific application. Additionally, there is a demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for devices that are battery-powered.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by integrating CYW43022 into it, using their wireless design and product processing technology. The CYW43022 chip can maintain connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities. This helps reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields, saving space on the module.
