Murata’s Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module Revolutionizing 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 connectivity.
In recent years, the IoT market has seen an increase in applications, leading to a rise in IoT equipment with wireless communication capabilities. The specifications for wireless communication functions have become more diverse, varying depending on the specific application. In particular, there is a growing demand for lower power consumption in wireless communication functions for battery-powered devices.
Murata has created a product with low power consumption by incorporating the CYW43022 chip, which allows for connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode. This is possible due to the chip's Bluetooth stack and Wi-Fi network offloading capabilities. Additionally, the product was made more compact by reducing the size of noise shields on the module.
