Based on CSR’s BlueCore-4-External chip, Fujitsu’s MBH7BTZ family of Bluetooth modules includes a built-in antenna, 8Mbit Flash memory, crystal and CP chip. Upper layer protocol stack (L2CAP, SDP, RFCOMM), SPP and GAP profiles, and accessory protocols for iOS devices are all embedded. Communication and control can be easily established with a simple command.

Each module series features a different packaging configuration to offer various mounting options: The MBH7BTZ50 is a 31.0 × 15.0 × 2.5mm module with an integrated ceramic chip antenna and FFC interface; the MBH7BTZ52 is a 17.6 × 14.0 × 1.9mm surface-mount module with an integrated antenna; and the MBH7BTZ53 is a 26.0 × 19.0 × 2.3mm module with an integrated antenna and board-to-board stacking connector.

Available in September 2012, Fujitsu’s MBH7BTZ family of iOS-compatible, wireless modules are fully Bluetooth qualified and meet FCC/IC/CE approvals. Companies who wish to buy or use the modules are required to join the MFi license program provided by Apple Inc.®
