Bluetooth Smart Module Carries Little or No Size Penalty

Ultra low power (ULP) RF specialist Nordic Semiconductor ASA (Oslo, Norway) announced that Korean electronics materials and components giant, LG Innotek, has developed a Nordic nRF51822 SoC-based Bluetooth Smart (previously known as Bluetooth low energy) module that carries little or no size penalty compared to a discrete (individual component-built) solution and requires no RF expertise to employ. The LG 4403 module:

• Measures 5.3 x 4.7 x 1.0mm in size.
• Is supplied in an LGA package small enough to fit into any current or next-generation Bluetooth Smart smartphone, tablet, or computer appcessory including the smallest wearable, smart watch, sports, health, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
• Includes nRF51822 and 32-bit ARM Cortex M0 microprocessor.
