u-blox NORA-B1 BLUETOOTH® 5.2 Modules

u-blox NORA-B1 BLUETOOTH® 5.2 Modules feature an integrated nRF5340 chipset and a powerful Arm® Cortex®-M33 dual-core application and network processors. The onboard application processor provides a Floating-Point Unit (FPU), Digital Signal Processor (DSP) instruction set, and CryptoCell™-312 security architecture.  The NORA-B1 Modules support multiple peripherals over high-speed SPI, QSPI, USB, ADC, and PWM interfaces. The NORA-B1 Modules feature a 2.4GHz radio capable of handling Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), 802.15.4 for Thread, Zigbee, and Nordic Semiconductor proprietary protocols. These Modules support multiple power supply configurations and offer multiple antenna choices, including a U.FL connector, antenna pin, and onboard PCB trace antenna options. The NORA-B1 modules provide scalable solutions for a broad range of market segments like smart cities and buildings, industrial automation, telematics, medical, and healthcare.
