SX-ULPGN-BTZrenesas-ra-ready-badge-final (003)

Highly Integrated Multi-Radio Host-less Platform for IoT

SX-ULPGN-BTZ is a dual-band a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth low energy (BLE), 802.15.4 combo module for the Internet-of-Things (IoT). It is a single stream 1x1 WLAN, BLE 5 + 802.15.4 based on Qualcomm's QCA4020 System-on-Chip (SoC).
 
It enables seamless integration of three popular wireless connectivity technologies (802.11, Bluetooth, and 802.15.4) used in the majority of today's IoT applications.

Dual Band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi + BT + 802.15.4 connectivity

The SX-ULPGN-BTZ is developed to address the expanding demands of embedded IoT applications the device is suited for single-chip gateways, energy management, lighting, industrial automation, white goods appliances, home security, and many other applications requiring multi-radio functionality.

  • Dual Band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi + Bluetooth Low Energy + 802.15.4 connectivity (Zigbee, Thread PRO R21)
  • Ecosystem Support: Amazon AWS, OpenThread, Microsoft Azure
  • Supports WPA and WPA2 Enterprise Security. LEAP, EAP-FAST, EAP-TLS, PEAP, EAP-TTLS supported
  • Integrated multi-radio co-Existence : 15.4+BLE+Wi-Fi coexistence on 2 antennas
  • Configurable memory retention for minimizing deep sleep power per application
  • Three dedicated internal processors remove the need for an external CPU/MCU.
