## Description

Raytac’s MDBT50Q-1MV2 is a compact Bluetooth Low Energy module built around Nordic’s nRF52840 SoC. It is designed for connected products that need Bluetooth 5.x capability alongside 2.4 GHz radio options such as IEEE 802.15.4 for Thread and Zigbee, proprietary 2.4 GHz RF and ANT+.The module brings out a broad set of interfaces for connecting peripherals and sensors, including GPIO, SPI, UART, I2C, I2S, PMD, PWM, ADC, NFC and USB. It also includes an embedded 2.4 GHz transceiver and is intended for low-power designs with ultra-low peak, average and idle mode power consumption.With its small 15.5 x 10.5 mm footprint and full BLE software stack coverage, this module is suited to custom wireless hardware, sensor nodes, wearables, automation devices and other compact embedded projects.Features:Embedded 2.4GHz transceiver supports Bluetooth 5.2, IEEE 802.15.4 (Thread &amp;amp; Zigbee) &amp;amp; 2.4Ghz RF &amp;amp; ANT+ upon customer’s preference.Low power requirements, ultra-low peak, average and idle mode power consumption.Fully coverage of BLE software stack.BLE &amp;amp; RF transmission switching helps products fit all operation system and most hardware.Specifications:Bluetooth specification certification: BT5.4 &amp;amp; BT5.2 &amp;amp; BT5.1 &amp;amp; BT5 Bluetooth Specification Certified.Radio support: Bluetooth 5, IEEE 802.15.4, 2.4 GHz transceiverSensitivity in 1Mbps BLE mode: -95dBmSensitivity in 125Kbps BLE mode (long range): -103dBmTX power: +8 dBm TX power (down to -20 dBm in 4 dB steps)On-air compatibility: On-air compatible with nRF52, nRF51, nRF24L and nRF24AP SeriesProgrammable output power: Programmable output power from +8dBm to -20dBRSSI: RSSI (1dB resolution)Supported data rates: Supported data rates:Bluetooth 5 data rates: 2 Mbps, 1 Mbps, 500 kbps, 125 kbpsIEEE 802.15.4-2006 data rate: 250 kbpsProprietary 2.4 GHz data rates: 2 Mbps, 1 MbpsProcessor: ARM Cortex –M4 32-bit processor with FPU, 64 MHzMemory: 1MB flash / 256KB RAMSecurity acceleration: HW accelerated securitySecurity subsystem: ARM TrustZone Cryptocell 310 security subsystemAES co-processor: 128 bit AES / ECB / CCM / AAR co-processor (on-the-fly packet encryption)On-chip interfaces: Advanced on-chip interfacesUSB: USB 2.0 full speed (12Mbps) controllerQSPI: QSPI 32MHz interfaceSPI: High speed 32MHz SPINFC: Type 2 near field communication (NFC-A) tag with wake-on fieldPPI: Programmable peripheral interconnect (PPI)General purpose I/O: 48 general purpose I/O pinsEasyDMA: EasyDMA automated data transfer between memory and peripherals.ADC: 12 bit, 200ksps ADC – 8 configurable channels with programmable gainPWM: 4 x 4 channel pulse width modulator (PWM) units with EasyDMAAudio peripherals: I2S, digital microphone interface (PDM)Timers: 5 X 32-bit timers with counter modeSPI masters / slaves: Up to 4 x SPI masters / 3 x SPI slaves with EasyDMAI2C compatible 2-wire masters / slaves: Up to 2 x I2C compatible 2-wire masters / slavesUART: 2 x UART(CTS/RTS) with EasyDMAQuadrature decoder: Quadrature decoder (QDEC)Real-time counters: 3 x 24-bit real-time counters (RTC)Dimensions: Compact size with (L) 15.5 x (W) 10.5 x (H) 2.05 or 2 mmA good choice for engineers and makers designing low-power BLE and 2.4 GHz wireless products around the Nordic nRF52840 platform.
