Chip:nRF52840
TX Power:+8dBm
Antenna:PCB
Distance:500m
Dimension:20.5*24mm
Feature:High performance
Product introduction:Every RC52840B module is designed to simplify of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) v5.0 and Thread (802.15.4) to small, portable. The RC52840B provides engineers with considerable design flexibility in both hardware and software programming capabilities. Based on the world-leading Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 chipset, the RC52840B modules provide ultra-low power consumption with outstanding wireless range via +8 dBm of transmit power and the Long Range (CODED PHY) Bluetooth 5 feature.
RC52840B is an RF module based on Nordic BLE SoC nRF52840QFAA. It integrates a 32.768 kHz and a 40 MHz crystal, an LC balun, an RF matching filter, and a meander line inverted-F PCB antenna. It features low power consumption, small size, robust connection distance, and rigid reliability. It supports BLE stack v5.0 and can be preprogrammed with a serial interface communication protocol for simple programming. 1.27-mm pitch stamp stick package for easy assembling and cost-effective PCB design. All pins are pull out.
