Wireless modules expand development options
Quectel has launched four new Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules to provide designers with a greater array of options in terms of size, cost, and power efficiency. Joining the company’s portfolio of IoT modules are the FCU741R Wi-Fi 4 module and the FCS950R Wi-Fi 5/Bluetooth 4.2 combo module. The HCM010S Bluetooth LE 5.4 module and the HCM111Z Bluetooth LE 5.3 module also extend the IoT lineup.
The FCU741R Wi-Fi 4 module for wireless LAN connections operates at 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz frequencies to deliver a maximum data rate of 150 Mbps. It offers a USB 2.0 interface and operates over a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C.
The FCS950R Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2 module supports IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac and achieves a maximum data rate of 433.3 Mbps in 802.11ac mode. It also furnishes an SDIO 3.0 interface and is just 12.0×12.0×2.35 mm.
Outfitted with an Arm Cortex-M33 processor, the HCM010S module supports both Bluetooth LE 5.4 and Bluetooth mesh networking. Built-in memory comprises 64 kbytes of SRAM and 768 kbytes of flash. Transmit power up to +20 dBm enables a longer transmission range.
Also based on an Arm Cortex-M33 processor, the HCM111Z Bluetooth LE 5.3 module offers a maximum data rate of 2 Mbps. It includes 48 kbytes of SRAM and 512 kbytes of flash memory, as well 13 general-purpose I/Os and a built-in codec for microphone pickup and audio playback.
