R41Z Module for Thread and Bluetooth 4.2 LE
The
R41Z Module
from Rigado is a highly-integrated, ultra-low power
module that enables Bluetooth Low Energy and IEEE 802.15.4
connectivity based on the Kinetis KW41Z SoC from NXP
Semiconductors. With and ARM® Cortex™
M0+ processor, embedded
2.4GHz transceiver supporting FSK/GFSK and O-QPSK modulations, and
integrated antenna, the
R41Z
provides a complete RF solution with no
additional RF design allowing faster time to market. Equipped with the
ability to concurrently communicate over Bluetooth and Thread
connections, the R41Z offers an unprecedented level of connectivity in
a single module. With an internal DC-DC Converter and a wide supply
voltage range of 0.9V to 4.2V, the
R41Z
can be directly powered by
sources ranging from single alkaline cells to lithium polymer batteries.
