Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called the "Type 2GF," which is designed to support battery-powered IoT devices. This module features the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, and is now in mass production.
In the past few years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the use of wireless communication in various applications. As a result, there is a growing demand for IoT devices with specific wireless communication capabilities tailored to different needs. In particular, there is a need for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to consume less power.
To meet the high demand for low power consumption devices, Murata has 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 main processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities. As a result, the product is able to consume less power overall. Additionally, by using smaller noise shields, space was saved on the module, making the product more compact.
