Rigado’s Bluetooth low energy modules are advanced, highly flexible, ultra-low power multiprotocol System-on-Modules (SoMs) for portable, extremely low power embedded systems.
The BMD-300 Series from Rigado is a line of ultra-low power Bluetooth 5 modules based on the Nordic nRF52 system-on-chip (SoC).
With an Arm Cortex-M4F core and embedded 2.4GHz transceiver, the series provides a complete RF solution available in three variants: internal antenna (BMD-300), U.FL connector (BMD-301), and ultra-miniature (BMD-350).
The R41Z multi-mode module supports both Bluetooth 4.2 and the 802.15.4-based Thread protocol on an ultra-low-power, highly integrated single-chip device.
Built on an NXP KW41Z microcontroller with an Arm Cortex-M0+ processor, the R41Z effectively balances power and performance with scalability to provide an ideal solution for applications such as commercial lighting and building automation.
Both the R41Z and BMD-300 series modules are fully certified and supported by Rigado evaluation kits. These evaluation kits feature Arduino Uno-compatible headers, power and virtual COM over USB, two capacitive touch buttons, and built-in sensors, making it easy to rapidly prototype smart devices.
