HUMRC™ SERIES REMOTE CONTROL AND
SENSOR TRANSCEIVER OFFERS AMAZING
FLEXIBILITY IN A TINY, LOW COST PACKAGE!
The HumRC™ transceiver is designed for reliable bi-directional remote
control and sensor applications. The module includes a Frequency Hopping Spread spectrum (FHSS) protocol and supports versions at 2.4GHz
and 900MHz with a common footprint and pin out in this initial release,
with 868MHz and others to follow in the near future. This common footprint
across the available frequencies also makes it suitable for global sale, so
one product can be manufactured and sold around the world.

LE) module for designers who want
to easily add dual mode Bluetooth
wireless capability to their products.
Delivering local connectivity for the
Internet of Things (IoT), the BM77
bridges your product to Smart
Phones and Tablets for convenient
data transfer, control and access to
cloud applications.
This Bluetooth SIG certified
(QDID:B021961) module provides
a complete wireless solution
with Bluetooth stack on-board,
integrated antenna, and worldwide
radio certifications in a compact
surface mount package, 22 x 12 x 2.4
mm. It supports GAP, SDP, SPP, and

Profile

• Two Internal Crystal Oscillators
• Integrated Antenna
A revolution is underway in
Bluetooth Low Energy to
dramatically shrink power
budgets for battery powered
applications. Panasonic’s
“nanopower” family of 2nd
generation BLE modules reduces
transmit and receive current
consumption by more than 66%
when compared to the current
generation of BLE devices and
nearly a 90% reduction from
Bluetooth Classic devices. Most
significant is that these current
reductions have been achieved
without range reduction, without
Tx power reduction and without
changes to the Bluetooth
specification.
The PAN1740 Series is Panasonic’s
next generation “nanopower”
Bluetooth Low Energy module with
reduced form factor, significantly lower
power consumption, embedded BLE
stack and profile. Panasonic cost
engineering lowers component count
and the application BOM. The single
mode Bluetooth system-on-chip
module is optimized for lower power
and small size. The power consumption
of only 5mA in Tx or Rx mode allows
for the use of coin cell batteries and
reduces battery requirements up to 50%
when compared to current generation
BLE devices. With a fully shielded case,
integrated crystal oscillators and chip
antenna, the 9.0 x 9.5 x 1.8 mm footprint
of the PAN1740 series make it one of
the smallest BLE modules available.
The PAN1740 Series is qualified to the
Bluetooth 4.0 standard – FCC, IC, CE
certifications are pending. Panasonic’s
designer friendly Easy-to-Use (ETU)
development kits reduce design efforts
and critical time to market.
BENEFITS
• Increase battery life
• Reduces module cost and the size of
the end product
• Increase range for reliable
communication
• Module works in harsh environments
• Lowers the application BOM
• Increased design flexibility

SIERRA WIRELESS AIRPRIME® EMBEDDED
MODULES HL SERIES
Compact, Flexible, and Future Proof 2G, 3G, and 4G
Essential Modules
Sierra Wireless AirPrime®
HL embedded modules offer
everything device manufacturers
need to meet essential
connectivity requirements for
machine-to-machine (M2M)
applications such as healthcare,
point of sale terminals, fleet
management, tracking, and
consumer electronics.
Figure1: HL Series
Key differentiators include a
common form factor, small
size, low-power consumption,
enhanced RF performance,
optional GNSS (GPS and
GLONASS), and worldwide
coverage.
COMPACT: THE SMALLEST 2G
TO 4G FORM FACTOR ON THE
MARKET
Figure 2: Snap-in option or
solder-down design
The HL Series is the smallest module
on the market sharing a common
form factor across 2G, 3G, and 4G
technologies. Now, with just one
PCB design, device manufacturers
can easily integrate voice and
data connectivity and deploy in
any region, on any wireless mobile
network.
The compact form factor offers
the choice of soldering down the
module for efficient high-volume
production or, using a snap-in socket
on the same solder pads for total
flexibility in prototyping or smaller

FEATURES
Figure 1: SX-580
The SX-570/SX-580 highperformance Serial/USB/Ethernet to
Wi-Fi modules provide connectivity
for low-power portable devices to
802.11 wireless networks (WLAN’s).
Eliminating the need for the
development of a wireless LAN
driver and security supplicant, it is
ideal for minimizing engineering
investment and reducing time to
market.
Measuring 1.18 x 2.16 inches (30
x 55 mm), the SX-570/SX-580
features a powerful 32-bit 454
MHz Freescale i.MX28 processor
with an 802.11a/b/g/n radio, a
complete TCP/IP network protocol
stack, and an optimized AR6003
wireless radio driver and security
supplicant in a self-contained
hardware package. One major
advantage of the SX-570/SX-580 is
enterprise security, including WPA2
with 802.1x authentication, which
enables it to be used on almost any
customer’s network without security
compromises. Another feature
enhancement is the implementation
of the WPS feature which allows
clients to easily connect to any
network with WPA2 security.
The SX-570/SX-580 is designed
to connect to a wide range of
OEM devices without the need for
special software drivers or interface
hardware.
• Supports IEEE802.11a/b/g/n
• Industry-leading enterprise security
including WPA, WPA2, WEP plus
802.1x authentication

BENEFITS
• Based on Qualcomm Atheros
AR6003. This game changing chip
technology enables the SX-570/
SX-580 to provide breakthrough
performance at the lowest cost.
• Linux operating system with user
programmability. The SX-570/SX-580
is uses the Linux operating system
and is designed to allow users to
easily add new features. With a
454MHz processor and 16MB of RAM
and 8MB of flash memory, the SX570/SX-580 has plenty of capacity to
handle complex user applications.
• Reduced power consumption. The
SX-570/SX-580 uses a minimum
amount of power during transmitting
and receiving, and its power
management reduces power usage
during periods of inactivity.
APPLICATIONS
• The SX-570/SX-580 highperformance intelligent modules are
designed for connecting portable
devices to 802.11 wireless local area
networks (WLANs), and eliminate
the need for the development
investment of the wireless LAN driver
and security supplicant.
• They are ideal for OEM applications
that need WLAN connectivity with
minimal power usage, such as
battery-operated portable devices
for medical, printer, weights and
measures, and other applications.
