Overview

The 453-00041C is a high-performance Bluetooth 5.1, Thread, and Zigbee module based on the Nordic nRF52833 chipset. It features an integrated ARM Cortex M4 core with FPU and supports a wide range of industrial applications through its extended temperature rating and versatile programming options including smartBASIC and Zephyr RTOS.

Why Choose This Part

This module provides superior range and interference immunity with an 8dBm output power and -103dBm sensitivity in Long Range mode. The I-PEX MHF4 connector allows for flexible external antenna placement, while the pre-certified design (FCC, CE, IC, RCM, Japan, KC) significantly reduces time-to-market.

Applications

Industrial Mesh Networking
Leverages Thread and Zigbee protocols to create robust, self-healing wireless networks in harsh industrial environments.
High-Precision Asset Tracking
Utilizes Bluetooth 5.1 Direction Finding (AoA/AoD) capabilities for accurate indoor positioning and asset management.
Low-Power Smart Home Sensors
Optimized for battery-powered operation with a deep sleep current of 0.6 uA and a wide supply voltage range of 1.7V to 5.5V.
Medical Wearables
Combines a compact 10mm x 15mm footprint with NFC support for simplified device pairing and data exchange.
