iOS Bluetooth modules

12 June 2013 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

In response to the rapid development of iOS devices and software applications, Fujitsu Components has developed Bluetooth modules that are compatible with iOS products such as the iPod, iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iPad mini. The fully integrated, Power Class 2 modules are compatible with Bluetooth Version 2.1 + EDR for fast creation of wireless iOS-based products and accessories.

It is simple to integrate the module for wireless serial communication in any device by using the standard stacking connectors or flat cable connector available on the module. The Fujitsu wireless modules for communication with iOS devices can be used in applications such as mobile medical devices, printers, handheld diagnostic equipment and many other emerging devices.

Based on CSR’s BlueCore-4-External chip, the MBH7BTZ family of Bluetooth modules includes a built-in antenna, 8 Mb Flash memory, crystal and CP chip. The upper layer protocol stack (L2CAP, SDP, RFCOMM), SPP profiles, GAP profiles and accessory protocols for iOS devices are all embedded. Communication and control can be easily established by using simple commands.

Each module series features a different packaging configuration to offer various mounting options. The MBH7BTZ50 is a 31,0 x 15,0 x 2,5 mm module with an integrated ceramic chip antenna and FFC interface; the MBH7BTZ52 is a 17,6 x 14,0 x 1,9 mm surface-mount module with an integrated antenna; and the MBH7BTZ53 is a 26,0 x 19,0 x 2,3 mm module with an integrated antenna and board-to-board stacking connector.

The modules are fully Bluetooth qualified and meet FCC/IC/CE approval.
