Further, the all-in-one module is pre-qualified for Bluetooth, saving time and cost for Bluetooth qualification. This allows customers to reduce Bluetooth-related test and measurement at production sites. The module is designed for mobile phone, headset, PDA, portable media player and portable device applications where Bluetooth functionality combined with small size and low current consumption are required.
The LBMA46LCS uses Murata’s proprietary LTCC (low temperature co-fired ceramic) technology and is one of the smallest Bluetooth modules on the market. Measuring just 6.65 by 6.15 mm with a maximum height of 1.5 mm, the module is designed for applications where space is tight. It supports Bluetooth version 2.0 + EDR and features class 2 output power (0dBm typical). Rx sensitivity is typically -82dBm and the device supports several interfaces including USB, UART, BCSP and H4DS. It is RoHS compliant.
