Ezurio (formerly Laird Connectivity), has released a family of Bluetooth LE modules based on Nordic Semiconductor’s new next generation of low power wireless SoC, the nRF54L15. The modules enable wireless product designers to bring new products to market faster, while delivering the highest level of performance, security and efficiency with ultra-low power consumption. The modules are predominantly designed for industrial, medical and commercial applications.
The ‘BL54L15 Series’ utilises the QFN48 package of Nordic’s nRF54L15 SoC. It features 31 GPIOs and comprises two module variants, that have either an integrated PCB trace antenna or a MHF4 connector on board. Both modules come in a 14 by 10 mm form factor.
The ‘BL54L15µ Series’ utilises the WSCLP package of the nRF54L15 SoC. It features 32 GPIOs and comprises two module variants that have either an integrated chip antenna or a trace pad for external antenna support. The modules come in a highly compact 6.3 by 7.9 mm form factor.
Each series of modules is optimised for high-performance applications, ensuring secure, robust and efficient wireless communication with support for the latest Bluetooth standards and secure programming options.
“The Bl54L15 and BL54L15µ module variants bring out the full capability of the market-leading, underlying Nordic silicon for the end customer to utilize in a fully pre-certified solution,” said Jonathan Kaye, the VP of product management and marketing at Ezurio. “The plethora of protocols and application support in a single hardware/software solution enables us to support the widest possible set of use cases and customer requirements for short range wireless connectivity.”
