CEL CMP961x Wireless Modules, Now at Mouser, Provide Wi-Fi 6 and Matter Compatibility

August 30, 2023 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, is now stocking the CMP961x Wi-Fi^® and Bluetooth® modules from CEL (California Eastern Laboratories). These modules are based on NXP Semiconductors’ IW611 and IW612 wireless system-on-chip (SoC) and deliver the performance and network optimization capabilities of Wi-Fi 6 and Matter, a new connectivity standard championed by Apple, Amazon, Google and hundreds of other companies for IoT communication across smart devices in healthcare, medical devices, building automation, retail/POS terminals, security, video cameras, and smart home applications.

The CEL CMP961x modules offer flexibility to OEMs and users to leverage other lower bandwidth and longer-range protocols like Bluetooth Long Range to address applications that have other demands and needs. The CMP9612 also supports Thread (IP-based MESH Networking) and Matter.

Coexistence support for dual/tri-radio protocols is available to enable multiple networks and applications. Wi-Fi operational modes include STA, AP, Wi-Fi Direct, or combinations thereof. BT5.2 supports LE 2Mbps, long-range, and advertising extensions, as well as LE Audio and profiles like HFP, A2DP, and Dual WBS. Classic Bluetooth and BLE are supported over HCI. With +20-dBm output power, the CMP961x modules deliver best-in-class range and coverage, which enhances throughput, lower latency, reduced power consumption, faster OTA firmware updates, and better network reliability.

The CMP961x modules are versatile and ready for integration with almost any host platform, including microcontroller or microprocessor architectures supporting Android, Linux, and FreeRTOS operating systems. The devices are offered in a 16.64 mm × 27.80 mm × 3.47 mm module with a PCB-trace antenna or MHF4 connector and in a compact 12 mm × 12 mm LGA package with an RF pin.
