Murata’s Type 2GF Module: Revolutionizing Battery-Powered IoT Equipment with Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Technology
Murata is now selling a low-power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination module called "Type 2GF" that is designed to support battery-powered IoT devices. This module includes the Infineon Technologies "CYW43022" chip, which combines Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities.
In the last few years, the IoT market has seen a growth in the number of applications, leading to an increase in IoT devices that have wireless communication capabilities. The requirements for wireless communication functions have become more varied, depending on the specific application. Additionally, there is a growing need for wireless communication functions in battery-powered devices to consume less power.
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 CYW43022. This chip enables the product to maintain connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode by handling the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections. As a result, the product is able to consume less power overall. Additionally, space was saved on the module by using smaller noise shields, making the product more compact.
