Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has introduced a new low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to help expand the use of battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which integrates Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In the past few 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 types of wireless communication functions are now needed for various applications, and there is a focus on reducing power consumption for battery-powered devices.
Responding to customer needs, Murata has utilized their own wireless design technology and product processing technology to create a product with CYW43022 integrated, which enables low power consumption. The CYW43022 chip allows for connectivity to be maintained even when the host processor is in sleep mode, thanks to its Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities. This feature helps reduce power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields, which saved space on the module.
