Silicon Labs Blue Gecko BGM113 Bluetooth Smart Module
Silicon Labs BGM113 Blue Gecko Module offers a fully integrated, certified Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) solution in a compact package. Ideally suited for low-power, short-range wireless applications, the BGM113 module combines a 2.4GHz Blue Gecko wireless SoC, a high-efficiency chip antenna, and Bluetooth 4.1-compliant software stacks to minimise the time and effort typically required for complex RF designs. Supported by Silicon Labs development tools, such as Energy Profiler and Packet Trace, the BGM113 Module enables a fast time-to-market for space- and energy-sensitive IoT applications.
