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 support battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
The IoT market has seen an increase in the variety of applications, leading to the development of IoT equipment with wireless communication capabilities. Different types of wireless communication functions are now needed for various applications, and there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
In order to meet the need for low power consumption, Murata 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 host processor is in sleep mode, reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, by using smaller noise shields, Murata was able to save space on the module and create a more compact product.
