Fanstel Compact BC15 BLUETOOTH® 6.0 Modules
Fanstel Compact BC15 BLUETOOTH® 6.0 Modules are robust, highly flexible, ultra-low-power Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices utilizing a Nordic nRF54L15 SoC. The BC15 combines an Arm® Cortex®-M33 MCU, 1.524MB flash, 256KB RAM, an embedded 2.4GHz multiprotocol transceiver, and an integrated chip antenna or a u.FL for an external antenna.
The Fanstel Compact BC15 Bluetooth 6.0 Modules enable a faster time to market with decreased development costs. No external components are required. The devices embed both 32KHz crystals and DC-DC converter inductors into a 6.0mm x 6.3mm size.
