NXP Semiconductors K32W041AM/A
Advanced ultra-low-power wireless MCUs for Zigbee®, Thread™ and Bluetooth® LE 5.0
The K32W041AM/A expands the existing K32W0x portfolio, designed to power the next generation of ultra-low-current multiprotocol wireless devices, supporting Zigbee 3.0/Thread/IEEE 802.15.4 and BLE 5.0.
K32W0x has an Arm® Cortex®-M4, with 640 KB flash and 152 KB SRAM, enough room and flexibility for complex applications and over-the-air (OTA) upgrade. It has a rich set of peripherals and interfaces for connected applications and a quad serial flash memory controller, SPIFI, to extend non-volatile memory.
The K32W041A increases the output power to +15 dBm. The K32W041AM also supports +15 dBm and includes an additional 1 MB of Flash.
