u-blox NORA-B1 BLUETOOTH® 5.2 Modules
u-blox NORA-B1 BLUETOOTH® 5.2 Modules feature an integrated nRF5340 chipset and a powerful Arm® Cortex®-M33 dual-core application and network processors. The onboard application processor provides a Floating-Point Unit (FPU), Digital Signal Processor (DSP) instruction set, and CryptoCell™-312 security architecture. The NORA-B1 Modules support multiple peripherals over high-speed SPI, QSPI, USB, ADC, and PWM interfaces. The NORA-B1 Modules feature a 2.4GHz radio capable of handling Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), 802.15.4 for Thread, Zigbee®, and Nordic Semiconductor proprietary protocols. These Modules support multiple power supply configurations and offer multiple antenna choices, including a U.FL connector, antenna pin, and onboard PCB trace antenna options. The NORA-B1 modules provide scalable solutions for various market segments like smart cities and buildings, industrial automation, telematics, medical, and healthcare.Features
