Sterling-LWB5 Module Datasheet Integrated 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WLAN, Bluetooth & BLE Module FEATURES DESCRIPTION The Sterling-LWB5 is a high performance 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (single stream n) and 5 GHz WLAN and Bluetooth Smart Ready Typical WLAN Transmit Power: combo module based on latest-generation silicon o +16 dBm, 11 Mbps, CCK (b) (Cypresss BCM43353). With an industrial o +13 dBm, 54 Mbps, OFDM (g) temperature rating, broad country certifications, o +11 dBm, HT20 MCS7 (n) and the availability of two different package styles, Typical WLAN Sensitivity: the Sterling-LWB5 provides significant flexibility to o -87 dBm, 8% PER,11 Mbps (b) meet various end user application needs. o -73 dBm, 10% PER, 54 Mbps (g) o -71 dBm, 10% PER, MCS7 (n) The on-module chip antenna package style for the Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, Bluetooth 3.0, Sterling-LWB5 eliminates complexity for design Bluetooth 4.2 (Bluetooth Low Energy) integration, simplifies manufacturing assembly with WLAN and Bluetooth coexistence larger pin outs, and features an advanced chip Available in two footprint styles: antenna that offers greater resistance to de-tuning o Easy to Integrate: 15.5 mm x 21 mm than typical trace or chip antennas. o Miniature footprint: 10 mm x 10 mm Available with integrated chip antenna or U.FL connector for external antenna Operating voltage: VBAT = 3.20V to 3.60V VDDIO = 1.71V to 1.89V o Operating temperature: -40 to +85 C Compact design based on Cypress BCM43353 SoC EMC Compliance: FCC (USA), IC (Canada), & ETSI (Europe) BT SIG QDID: 97564 REACH and RoHS compliant The module includes the MAC, Baseband and Radio to support WLAN applications and an independent, APPLICATIONS high-speed UART is provided for the Bluetooth host interface. In addition, the latest Linux and Android Security & Building Automation drivers are supported directly by LSR and Cypress.
