Product details

RN4870 Bluetooth 4.2 Module

The RN4870 module is based on the IS187x Bluetooth device and provides a complete solution to implement Bluetooth 4.2 Low Energy connectivity. The module is interfaced to a host MCU via a UART serial port using Microchip’s ASCII command set for easy integration into most applications. The module can be dynamically configured by the host MCU with a few simple ASCII commands. The RN4870 also supports on-board scripting to automate basic operations enabling it to stand alone without a host microcontroller.

Module Features

• RF Frequency Band: 2.402 to 2.480GHz ISM band, channels 0 to 39
• RF Output Power: 0dBm (Bluetooth Class 3)
• Receiver Sensitivity: -90dBm
• On-board Bluetooth 4.2 Low-Energy stack
• GAP, GATT, SM, L2CAP and integrated public profiles
• Support for Beacon services such as Apple iBeacon™ and Google Eddystone™
• UART transparent service for serial data streaming
• ASCII Command Interface API over UART
• Scripting engine for host-less operation
• Security: FIPS-based connection security, AES-128 encryption
• Remote configuration Over-the-Air
• Host communication: serial UART with optional CTS/RTS flow control
• Ceramic chip antenna
• Power supply: +1.9 to +3.6Vdc
• Dimensions: 12 x 22mm
• Applications: Health/medical devices, Sports activity/fitness, Retail, Beacons, Internet of Things (IoT) sensor tag, Wearables, Industrial control, Smart energy/smart home
