MDBT50Q-512K
Overview
The MDBT50Q-512K is a high-performance Bluetooth 5.4, Zigbee, and Thread module based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52833 SoC. It features an ARM Cortex-M4 FPU core with 512KB Flash and 128KB RAM, integrating a ceramic chip antenna into a compact 10.5mm x 15.5mm form factor. This module is designed for complex wireless applications requiring multiprotocol support and robust peripheral connectivity like USB and high-speed SPI.
Why Choose This Part
The module provides a significant power advantage with an ultra-low 0.4uA shutdown current and efficient DC/DC regulators that minimize consumption during active radio states. Its 61-pin aQFN package breaks out a wide array of interfaces, including USB 2.0 and I2S, while the pre-certified chip antenna reduces RF design complexity and time-to-market.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Developers can utilize the Nordic nRF Connect SDK and Segger Embedded Studio for firmware development. The module is pin-compatible with other Raytac MDBT50Q series modules, allowing for easy hardware scaling between nRF52840 and nRF52833 variants. Hardware debugging is typically performed via the SWD interface using a J-Link programmer.
