SiP module has small size, long-range power, and rapid time-to-market

Silicon Labs’ BGM121 and BGM123 Blue Gecko Bluetooth SiP modules, available from Digi-Key, have +8dBm and +3dBm TX power, respectively, and are targeted for applications where ultra-small size, reliable high performance RF, low power consumption, and easy application development are key requirements. At 6.5mm x 6.5mm x 1.4mm, the modules fit applications where size is a constraint. They also integrate high performance, ultra-robust antennas, which require minimal PCB, plastic, and metal clearance. The total PCB area required is only 51mm². The they also integrate a Bluetooth 4.2 compliant Bluetooth stack and they can run end-user applications on-board or alternatively can be used as a network co-processor over one of the host interfaces.
