Overview

The nRF52810-QCAA-E-R is a high-performance, ultra-low power Bluetooth 5.0 SoC built on an ARM Cortex-M4 processor running at 64 MHz. It features 192kB of Flash and 24kB of RAM, offering a cost-optimized entry point for the nRF52 series while maintaining protocol compatibility with Bluetooth Low Energy and Thread.

Why Choose This Part

This SoC delivers exceptional power efficiency with peak currents as low as 4.6 mA for both TX at 0 dBm and RX operations. Its integrated balun simplifies RF design, and the -96 dBm sensitivity ensures robust wireless performance in a compact 32-VFQFN footprint.

Applications

Cost-Sensitive IoT Nodes
Optimized for simple wireless sensors and actuators that require Bluetooth 5 connectivity without the higher cost of the nRF52832 or nRF52840.
Disposable Medical Sensors
Leverages ultra-low power consumption and a small 5x5mm QFN package for single-use healthcare monitoring devices.
HID Peripherals
Ideal for wireless mice, keyboards, and remote controls where 2 Mbps data rates and low latency are required.
Smart Home Building Blocks
Serves as a reliable communication controller for smart lighting, door locks, and window sensors.
