Mouser pens global distribution deal with Fanstel
The Fanstel product line sold by Mouser includes Nordic Semiconductor-based BlueNor and Toshiba-based BlueFan modules.
Fanstel’s BlueNor range of devices are ultra-low-power BLE modules that incorporate a Nordic Semiconductor nRF52 SoC and an Arm Cortex MCU. The BlueNor BT832 Series modules combine a Nordic nRF52832 SoC and an Arm Cortex-M4F MCU with 512 Kbyte Flash and 64 Kbyte RAM. All modules feature 128-bit AES encryption and support NFC-A tag interface for secure out-of-band (OOB) pairing. The BlueNor BT832A and BT832AF modules combine a Nordic nRF52810 SoC and an Arm Cortex-M4 microcontroller with 192 Kbyte Flash and 24 Kbyte RAM.
Fanstel’s BlueNor BT840 products are ultra-low-power BLE modules that contain of a Nordic nRF52840 SoC and Arm Cortex-M4F microcontroller with hardware support for DSP instructions and floating point operations, 1 Mbyte Flash, and 256 Kbyte RAM. The modules also feature an Arm TrustZone Cryptocell-310 processor.
The BWG832F is a low-cost Bluetooth 5–to–Wi-Fi gateway that relays messages from a cloud server to any node in Bluetooth mesh, Thread, Zigbee, or other point-to-multiple points applications. The gateway includes a BlueNor BT832F Bluetooth 5 module and an Espressif ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC in a market-ready enclosure. At a data rate of 1 Mbps, the BWG832F gateway offers a Bluetooth communication range of 280 meters.
Fanstel’s BlueFan range is based on Toshiba single-chip Bluetooth ICs. The BH661C is a dual-mode Bluetooth 4.2 module with a Toshiba TC35661 SoC. The module features an integrated chip antenna, SPP and GATT profiles, and Host Controller Interface (HCI) protocols and UART interface.
