Murata Revolutionizes IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module for Battery-Powered Devices
Murata has introduced a new compact wireless module called "Type 2GF" that includes Infineon Technologies' "CYW43022" Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy combo chip. This module is designed to be low-power and is now available for mass production. It aims to support the growth of battery-powered IoT devices.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen a growth in the number of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices with wireless communication capabilities. Different types of wireless communication functions are now being developed to meet the specific requirements of various applications. Additionally, there is a growing demand for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to consume less power.
Murata has created a product with CYW43022 integrated, using their own wireless design technology and product processing technology to ensure low power consumption. The CYW43022 chip allows for connectivity maintenance 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, by using smaller noise shields, space was saved on the module, making the product more compact.
