Image of Microchip's RNBD451PE Plug-and-Play Bluetooth® Low Energy Module Effortlessly add Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) 5.2 to a design with Microchip's RNBD451PE plug-and-play module. The RNBD451PE is truly plug-and-play; no programming, RF design, or regulatory certification is required. Part of Microchip's Bluetooth LE product portfolio, the RNBD451PE saves time, money, and engineering resources, all of which save money and reduce users’ time to market.

Plug-and-play simplicity: No wireless software development is needed; send commands from any MCU over UART.

RF-ready with onboard antenna: RF design is complicated, but users do not have to worry about it with the RNBD451PE module. The module comes with an onboard PCB antenna built for optimal RF performance, saving time and RF-design hassle.

Global regulatory-certified: RF certification can take a lot of time and money. RNBD451PE modules are pre-certified in the US, Canada, Europe, Taiwan, China, Japan, and Korea. Choosing a pre-certified module bypasses the certification process, allowing users to focus on their product.
