Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the Type 2AB UWB+BLE combo ultra-wideband module from Murata Electronics, featuring both ultra-wideband (UWB) (channels 5 and 9) and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) 5.2 RF technology. Offering low current consumption and a small form factor, the combo module supports a range of small, battery-operated applications, including Internet of Things (IoT) devices, connected tracking devices, industrial sensors and controllers, and condition monitoring solutions.
The Murata Type 2AB UWB+BLE ultra-wideband module, now available at Mouser, delivers an exceptional battery life of more than ten years in an ultra-small, 10.5 mm × 83 mm × 1.44 mm package. The module features an embedded reference clock and an integrated three-axis sensor, while sophisticated collaborative coexistence hardware mechanisms and algorithms ensure that WLAN and Bluetooth collaboration is optimized for maximum performance. The high-performance module is based on the NXP 88W9098 combo chipset, supporting Wi-Fi® 6 (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax) 2×2 MIMO and Bluetooth 5.3 BR/EDR/LE 2MPHY up to a 1200 Mbps PHY data rate on Wi-Fi and a 3Mbps PHY data rate on Bluetooth. The module’s WLAN section supports the PCIe 2.0 interface with optional support for SDIO 3.0, while the Bluetooth section supports the high-speed four-wire UART interface and PCM for audio data.
The Type 2AB UWB+BLE module’s low-power performance and small form factor make it an ideal choice for size- and power-sensitive applications, including handheld wireless systems, gateways, and video streaming solutions.
The Type 2AB UWB+BLE module is supported by the LBUA5QJ2AB-828EVB evaluation kit. The evaluation kit offers a complete test and development platform on a 47 mm × 80 mm PCB, with a pre-mounted Type 2AB module, onboard UWB and BLE antennas and all required support circuitry. USB Type-C™ connectors enable easy connection to power and a PC.
