Wi-Fi + Bluetooth module for IoT and handheld wireless applications

Mouser now stocks Murata's Type 2BZ Wi-Fi + Bluetooth module (LBEE5XV2BZ). The module supplies engineers with a dual-band, small form-factor wireless connectivity solution for power-sensitive applications like the IoT, handheld wireless, gateways, Smart Home and industrial applications, to name a few.

The module is a small, high-performance wireless connectivity module based on the Infineon CYW54590 combo chipset. Supplying highly sophisticated, enhanced collaborative co-existence hardware mechanisms and algorithms, the module provides that WLAN and Bluetooth collaboration is optimised for maximum performance, with up to 866Mbps PHY data rate on Wi-Fi and 3Mbps PHY data rate on Bluetooth.

The module's WLAN section supports SDIO v3.0 interface, while the Bluetooth section supports a high-speed four-wire UART interface and PCM for audio data. In IEEE 802.11ac mode, the WLAN operation provides rates up to 256 QAM in 20MHz, 40MHz, and 80MHz channels, supporting Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac with 2×2 MIMO + 5.2 BR/EDR/LE (Bluetooth basic rate/enhanced data rate/low energy). This is supplied packaged in an impressively small form factor for size- and power-sensitive industrial applications, with operating temperatures up to +85C.
