The PAN1326C module is Bluetooth 4.2 compliant and benefits from a tiny footprint of only 85.5mm² (9.0×9.5×1.8mm).
Next to the UART interface the PAN1326C comes with a audio/voice codec interface which is a fully-dedicated programmable serial port that provides the logic to interface to several kinds of PCM or I2S codec’s. The wide operating temperature range is -40-+85°C and the supply voltage range is 1.8-4.8V.
Pascal Meier, Product Manager at Panasonic commented: “Our new PAN1326C Host-Controlled Interface (HCI) Bluetooth RF module brings Texas Instruments’ third generation Bluetooth core integrated circuit, the CC2564C, to an easy-to-use module format. It is even 100% pin-compatible with previous generations of Texas Instruments-based Bluetooth HCI modules.”
