Murata has launched an ultra-compact module for the MICS (Medical Implant Communication Service) Band. MICS uses the 402 to 405 MHz frequency band for short range wireless links to connect low power implanted medical devices with monitoring and control equipment. The LBAA0PC1RMH298 is one of the smallest and most highly integrated solutions currently available. Designed for use in devices with data-intensive wireless capabilities that are used to diagnose, monitor, report, and provide warnings in support of human life, typical applications include insulin, drug, and baclofen pumps, as well as arrhythmia and bladder monitors.
Murata used its proprietary technique to concisely bundle several technological components and ICs into one miniaturized package. The result is an advanced module that delivers the following features:
- Communication range: up to 2 meters
- Compact size: 8.6 x 5.6 x 1.7 mm
- Ultra-low current consumption: 0.2uA Sleep State
- High Data Rate: 128 kbps
- Operating frequency: 402-405 MHz band
- Programmable output power up to 7 dBm
- Receiver Sensitivity: -92 dBm @ 250KBaud, 1% packet error rate
- Current Consumption at TX: 16.0mA @ -3dBm output power, at RX: 16.0mA @1.2KBaud
- Voltage Input: 3.0V
- Operating Temp: 0°C to +55° C
- Host Interface: SPI
