Bluetooth 4.1: The module supports Bluetooth 4.1, which brings several advancements over previous Bluetooth versions. Bluetooth 4.1 enhances data transfer rates, extends the communication range, and improves power efficiency. It supports both Classic Bluetooth, ideal for high-speed data transfers, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for low-power, intermittent communication. Bluetooth 4.1 also features better coexistence with other wireless technologies, which helps reduce interference and improve overall performance. This makes the WCN-3660A-0-79BWLNSP-TR-03-1 suitable for a wide range of applications, such as wireless audio devices, smart home gadgets, and wearable technology.
Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n): The module provides support for Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n), offering reliable wireless networking on the 2.4 GHz frequency band with data rates up to 150 Mbps. Although Wi-Fi 4 does not reach the speeds of newer standards like Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) or Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), it delivers stable performance for general networking tasks, including internet access and file transfers.
TR (Temperature Range) Variant: The WCN-3660A-0-79BWLNSP-TR-03-1 is designed as a TR variant, which means it is capable of operating across a broad temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This feature ensures that the module can maintain reliable performance in extreme environmental conditions, making it suitable for industrial, automotive, and outdoor applications where temperature variations are significant.
Compact Form Factor: The module is designed with a compact form factor, allowing it to be integrated into devices with limited space. This small size is ideal for consumer electronics, wearables, and other portable devices where space constraints are a consideration. The compact design contributes to the overall reduction in device size and provides flexibility in device layout and design.
Low Power Consumption: The WCN-3660A-0-79BWLNSP-TR-03-1 is optimized for low power consumption, which is essential for battery-operated and portable applications. Its energy-efficient design helps extend battery life and minimize heat generation, ensuring effective performance in power-sensitive applications.
Versatility: By integrating both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technologies, the WCN-3660A-0-79BWLNSP-TR-03-1 offers a versatile connectivity solution. This integration allows the module to deliver comprehensive wireless connectivity in a single package, making it suitable for various consumer electronics, IoT devices, and industrial applications.
In summary, the Qualcomm WCN-3660A-0-79BWLNSP-TR-03-1 is a high-performance wireless communication module that combines Bluetooth 4.1 and Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) technologies. It offers reliable connectivity with a compact design, low power consumption, and an extended temperature range, making it an excellent choice for applications requiring robust and versatile wireless performance in diverse environmental conditions.
