Murata’s New Low-Power Wi-Fi/Bluetooth 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.
In the past few years, the IoT market has seen an increase in the use of applications, leading to a higher demand for IoT equipment with wireless communication capabilities. Different specifications for wireless communication functions have become more varied, depending on the specific application. In order to accommodate battery-powered devices, there is now a need for wireless communication functions to have lower power consumption.
Murata has met the demand for low power consumption by incorporating CYW43022 into their product, thanks to their wireless design and product processing technology. The CYW43022 chip enables connectivity even when the host processor is in sleep mode, reducing power consumption at the system level. Additionally, the product was made more compact by using smaller noise shields on the module.
