Bluetooth V4.2 Module For Industrial IoT, Medical And Industrial Equipment Applications

Fujitsu's Bluetooth Version 4.2, FWM7BLZ20-series module is designed to minimize time and cost investments to develop low-power Industrial IoT (Internet of Things) applications for medical, instrumentation, industrial equipment, and smart buildings.

The FWM7BLZ20-series module is based on the Nordic nRF52832 SoC with embedded 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ M4 microcontroller, 512KB Flash, 64KB RAM, and integrated antenna. It provides designers with all the required hardware and software in a space-saving 15.7 x 9.8 x 1.7mm package.

With both 32MHz and 32.768kHz crystal oscillators embedded, all 30 GPIOs available for multiple peripheral connections, such as LEDs and sensors. On-chip NFC tag for Tap-and-Pair support (which requires an external antenna) is also included, as well as UART, SPI, SWDCLK, SWDIO, nRESET, TWI, and ADC interfaces.

Although the FWM7BLZ20 is the same size as Fujitsu’s available MBH7BLZ02 Bluetooth 4.1 module, it has half the power consumption (about 5.4 mA: actual measured value) and about double the transmission distance at a receiving sensitivity of -94 dBm.
