Bluetooth module comes with built-in antenna
Devices powered by batteries or button cells, in particular, increasingly employ communication modules conforming to low-power communication standard Bluetooth® SMART. Parts inside devices must also be compact and power-efficient as products become ever smaller and more sophisticated.
Addressing these issues, the UGMZ2AA with built-in antenna is among the smallest and has one of the lowest power consumption levels in the industry.
The series has compact dimensions of 4.7- × 4.7- × 2.0-mm, achieved using RF circuit design and precision processing technologies accumulated by ALPS over many years. The module also has an originally designed antenna circuit pattern on the top of the unit in a single package. This omits the need for end product manufacturers to separately prepare an antenna, thereby helping to reduce the workload during equipment development and design.
Power consumption is low at 5.1 mA (0.6 µA in sleep mode), making the module ideal for devices running off a button cell or other battery.
The UGMZ2AA has been incorporated into the company’s Sensor Network Module IoT development kit, a multi-functional sensor module for acquisition and transmission of motion and environmental data integrating six-axis (Geomag+Accel), pressure, temperature and humidity, and UV and ambient light sensors with this Bluetooth® Smart communication module in a single package.
