Wireless Connectivity

Bluetooth

Manufactured to handle a broad range of technologies, Panasonic’s Bluetooth modules can be designed into various types of electronic devices. Features include: High Data Rates, Seamless Transition from Bluetooth Classic to Bluetooth Low Energy, Reduced Power, Consumption (as low as 5mA) and Rapid Connection and Disconnection.

• Bluetooth Classic
• Multi-Mode
• Low Energy

Wi-Fi

Operating in the 2.4GHz ISM band, Panasonic’s Wi-Fi radio modules provide fast implementation of WLAN and Bluetooth in your designs. A flexible, system-on-chip (SoC) solution, these modules feature low-power operation and increased speed-to-market. Panasonic Wi-Fi radio modules offer the perfect blend of reliability and performance. And because they're a single chip solution, material costs decrease as well.

• Embedded
• Non-embedded multi-mode
• Non-embedded only

Wi-Fi Combo

Panasonic Wi-Fi Combo modules provide a comprehensive solution with the highest flexibility for connectivity in IoT applications. The simultaneous and independent operation of the two standards enables high data rates (802.11n) and low-power operation, such as Bluetooth Low Energy. They are used in applications including smart meters, medical devices, home automation and telemetry and more. Panasonic Wi-Fi Combo modules reduces design, test, and calibration effort resulting in reduced time-to-market compared to discrete solutions.

• Dual Band

Mesh Networking

A Wireless Mesh network based on the SNAP® (Synapse Network Application Protocol) software stack is instant-on, self-forming, and self-healing. Creating applications to run on the nodes forming the network is fast, efficient, updated over-the-air, and does not require embedded programming skills. In fact, users can administer and manage a SNAP based network without actually having to know anything about the details of wireless networks. This approach makes wireless technology accessible to a much broader range of users, including monitoring and control in consumer, commercial, industrial, and government markets. Uses range from building automation (lighting, security, HVAC) to industrial control and machine communication, medical monitoring, security applications and home automation.
