Murata Revolutionizes IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module, Paving the Way for Battery-Powered Devices
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called the "Type 2GF," aimed at supporting the growth of battery-operated IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy technology.
In recent years, there has been a growth in IoT equipment with wireless communication capabilities due to the increasing number of applications in the IoT market. The specifications for wireless communication functions have become more varied based on the specific application. Additionally, there is a demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption capabilities by incorporating CYW43022 and applying their wireless design and product processing technology. The CYW43022 chip enables connectivity even when the host 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.
