Bluetooth modules have always been popular and fundamental to the field of IoT. As a keen advocate of IoT, Seeed understand the importance of Bluetooth and realize the potential benefits that can be passed onto the Seeed Fusion users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MDBT50Q-1MV2<\/a> is a popular Bluetooth module suitable for applications not limited to LE audio, professional lighting, connected wearables and more complex IoT applications. To assist developers, especially in these financially troubling times, Seeed Fusion have added MDBT50Q-1MV2 to the Seeed OPL<\/a> at a special discounted rate only available to Seeed Fusion PCBA users. As well as the cost savings, by stocking the module in the Seeed OPL, faster PCBA production from as little as 7 working days is that much easier to achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a BLE module based on Nordic nRF52?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

nRF52 is the second generation series of Bluetooth\u00ae low-power system-on-chip (SoC) devices from Nordic Semiconductor, a leading wireless technology company specializing in IoT. nRF52840 SoC is the most advanced member of the nRF52 series SoC family. It meets the challenges of complex applications that require protocol concurrency and a rich variety of peripheral devices and functions. It covers the baseline of Bluetooth 5 devices from low complexity to highly specialized devices. The chip contains the ARMTrustZone\u00aeCryptoCell encryption unit, which provides a wide range of encryption options and can be executed efficiently independently of the CPU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
