u-blox today announced the NORA-B1 Bluetooth module, a new addition to its short range radio portfolio. Based on Nordic Semiconductor's latest nRF5340 Bluetooth low energy (BLE) chipset featuring a powerful Arm® Cortex® M33 dual-core MCU, the NORA-B1 is designed to meet the needs of performance-oriented applications in a wide range of sectors, including industrial, medical, smart buildings, and smart cities.
The NORA-B1 leverages a dual-core MCU to handle performance-intensive applications and drive displays without the need for an external host processor. Furthermore, a dedicated, high-performance core for application execution ensures smooth, uninterrupted operation with minimal processing latency.
Compact and globally certified, the NORA-B1 supports Zigbee and Thread and brings the full capabilities of Bluetooth 5.2 to wireless applications. In particular, BLE audio technology enables simultaneous streaming on multiple channels with less power consumption than previous versions, further upgrading audio data transmission, one of Bluetooth's most popular use cases.
“Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF5340 chipset opens up a wide range of new applications for Bluetooth connectivity,” says Pelle Svensson, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Short Range Radio at u-blox. “We designed the NORA-B1 to make it easier for product developers to take advantage of these opportunities.”
