Murata Electronics New Bluetooth® LE Module Type 2EG delivers industry’s lowest power consumption for IoT applications

Murata Electronics announced the launch of its newest Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) module, Type 2EG. Based on the RSL15 secure Bluetooth 5.2 MCU from Onsemi, this Murata Electronics product delivers a fully certified, secured, ultra-small Bluetooth LE solution with the industry’s lowest power consumption. It also supports new Bluetooth 5.2 specifications, including long range, proximity, a high transmit rate, and up to 10 simultaneous connections. Target markets include connected IoT edge devices in industrial and medical applications.

The Murata Electronics miniaturized module measures just 7mm × 7.4mm × 1.0mm. It also integrates Bluetooth LE SoC, RF front end, fast and slow clock for operation and sleep mode, a large value inductor for low power mode, as well as an on-board antenna. This highly integrated, fully certified solution simplifies IoT device system design to shorten the time-to-market.

Battery powered IoT devices enabled with wireless connectivity have made millions of remote monitoring and controlling use cases a reality. The key lies in two major features: long battery life and secured data communication. The Type 2EG solution delivers the lowest power consumption in the Bluetooth LE module market because both of its radio and built-in micro-processor are highly power efficient. The on-board Arm® Cortex®-M33 processor can remain in a deep sleep mode while still monitoring sensor interfaces. Additionally, the solution includes Arm® TrustZone® and Arm CryptoCell™-312 technologies that provide root of trust and unsurpassed data security protection.
