29 September 2021 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

The BMD-330 from u-blox is a Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy module with a 200 m range. It is based on Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF52810 SoC with an integrated ARM Cortex-M4F 32-bit processor, and supports a data rate of up to 2 Mbps. The module delivers a Tx power of up to 4 dBm and has an Rx sensitivity of -96 dBm. It requires a DC supply of 1,7-3,6 V and consumes under 15,4 mA of current in Tx mode and less than 10 mA in Rx mode.

The device can be controlled via SPI master/slave, UART, I2C, GPIO, PWM and PDM interfaces. It supports serial wire debug (SWD) and

has 32-bit timers and 24-bit real-time counters. The module is available in a package that measures 14 x 9,8 x 1,9 mm with an antenna interface, and is ideal for beacons (iBeacon, Eddystone, AltBeacon, etc.), low-power sensors, wearables, lighting, safety and security, home appliances, smart energy management and many other applications.
