Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module Revolutionizes Battery-Powered IoT Equipment
Murata has introduced a new compact wireless module called "Type 2GF" that combines Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities in a low-power design. This module, which features the Infineon "CYW43022" chip, is now being mass-produced by Murata. This product is intended to support the growth of battery-powered IoT devices.
In the past few years, the IoT market has seen a growth in the number of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices that incorporate wireless communication capabilities. Different applications now require wireless communication functions with specific specifications, and there is a trend towards lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by incorporating CYW43022 technology, which allows for connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode. This technology helps reduce power consumption at the system level by efficiently managing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields, saving space on the module.
