Microchip (RN42N-I/RM) Class 2 Bluetooth v2.1 Module Without Antenna

Product OverviewThe RN42 is a small form factor, low power, multi-interface protocol, Class 2Bluetooth radio that is simple to design in, and is fully certified fordesigners who want to add a complete embedded Bluetooth solution to theirproducts fast. The RN42 delivers up to 3 Mbps data rate for distances up to 20meters with its high-performance PCB trace antenna and support for BluetoothEDR. The RN42 is also available without antenna (RN42N) for applications thatrequire an external antenna. The RN42N is form, function, and pin compatiblewith the RN42. Other configurations include: Apple-compatible firmware(RN42APL-I/RM), HCI mode (RN42HCI-I/RM), HID mode (RN42HID-I/RM), USB mode(RN42U-I/RM), and socket module (RN42SM-I/RM).RF Module without PCB antenna used with ext ant (RN42N-I/RM)Fully certified Class 2 Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR moduleOnboard embedded Bluetooth stack (no host processor required)UART (SPP or HCI) and USB (HCI only) data connection hardware interfacesSupports Bluetooth data link to iPhone/iPad/iPod TouchSupports HID profile for making accessories such as keyboards, mouse, pointingdevicesProgrammable low power modesSecure communications, 128 bit encryptionError correction for guaranteed packet deliveryUART local and over-the-air RF configurationAuto-discovery/pairing requires no software configuration (instant cablereplacement)Castellated SMT pads for easy and reliable PCB mountingThe standard part number (RN42-I/RM) supports SPP and DUN profilesBluetooth SIG qualifiedApplicationsIndustrial, Communications & Networking, Consumer Electronics, Automation &Process Control, Embedded Design & DevelopmentProduct Information:Bluetooth Version: Bluetooth 2.1 + EDRSupply Voltage Min: 3VSupply Voltage Max: 3.6VSignal Range Max: 20mData Rate: 921KbpsBluetooth Class: Class 2Receive Sensitivity: -80dBmOperating Temperature Min: -40°COperating Temperature Max: 85°CProduct Range: RN Series
