Overview
Description
The US159-DA16600EVZ is a highly integrated ultra-low-power Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) combo Pmod™ module that provides a convenient way to add both low-power Wi-Fi and low-power Bluetooth LE functionality to your device. The DA16600MOD integrates with the low-power Wi-Fi DA16200 System-on-Chip (SoC) and the low-power Bluetooth LE DA14531 SoC on a single module. They deliver long battery life and low-power consumption in a convenient form factor. As a single integrated system, it includes features such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE coexistence and Wi-Fi provisioning through a Bluetooth LE connection as standard.
The US159-DA16600EVZ incorporates the DA16600 module, combining low-power Wi-Fi with low-power Bluetooth capability in a single module. Due to the standard connector and software support, the US159-DA16600EVZ is ideal for Renesas’ QuickConnect platform to rapidly create an IoT system.
