The N548 is sized for wearable, home and industrial trends in a 14.0 x 9.8 x 2.0 mm LGA (Land Grid Array) package. Its makers say that it is a combination of technologies not previously available, taking ultra low power wireless to a new level of connectivity, and that, “ANT is always focused on simplifying issues for developers and this module offers all of the latest ANT and ANT+ advantages in a turnkey hardware solution.”

Designed for manufacturing simplicity, the N548 ANT SoC Module is fully integrated with PCB antenna, 32 kHz crystal time base, DC-DC converter, and 24 GPIOs with six analogue inputs, allowing developers the freedom to focus on their specific applications. It is pre-certified with FCC/IC/CE/JP/AU/NZ designations and Bluetooth qualification. Use it in simple sensors as well as cost-focused applications. The N548 highlights the advantages of the ANT protocol, including its strong position in Android smart phones, while enabling a bridge connection between available ANT+ devices and the iOS platform.

Known for the seamless and reliable interoperability of ANT+, ease of pairing and bi-directional sensor communication, the ANT protocol has become successful in sport, fitness and health devices. Users now rely on ANT to manage multiple sensors in crowded race environments, simple and complex interchanging and pairing of devices, and transferring data from multiple sensors to multiple displays simultaneously. Ultra long battery life and ANT’s efficient, low overhead management of flexible topologies also make ANT the ideal solution for active RFID, smart beacons, asset tags, audience response systems and home automation.

Available formats are;

  1. N548M8CB: 14.0 x 9.8 x 2.0 mm LGA
  2. N548M4CB: 20.0 x 20.0 mm package; pin compatible with legacy modules from Dynastream
  3. N548 M5CB: N548M4CB with a Molex connector
  4. The N548 Starter Kit, also available from IO Components, includes the N548M5CB.
