Frequently Asked Questions
What supply voltage range does the RN4870U-V/RM118 support, and how does that affect battery selection?
The RN4870U-V/RM118 operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V, making it compatible with CR2032 coin cells, single-cell lithium-ion batteries, and 3.3 V regulated rails. This wide range eliminates the need for a boost converter in many portable designs, simplifying BOM and reducing power consumption in low-energy IoT applications.
How does the UART interface on the RN4870U-V/RM118 simplify BLE integration for embedded systems designers?
The RN4870U-V/RM118 exposes a UART ASCII command interface, so any host MCU with a standard serial port at 2400 to 115200 baud can control BLE connections, data transfer, and profile configuration without implementing a Bluetooth stack in firmware. This reduces software development time from months to days for products requiring BLE 4.2 connectivity.
Which wireless connectivity standard does the RN4870U-V/RM118 support, and what profile capabilities does it offer?
The module supports Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2, including GATT-based custom profiles, UART Transparent mode, and HID-over-GATT. It operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band with a typical output power of 0 dBm, enabling 10 m to 30 m line-of-sight range for wearable devices, beacons, and sensor peripherals.
What package does the RN4870U-V/RM118 use, and how does TS 16949 screening affect procurement confidence?
The RN4870U-V/RM118 uses a 30-pad rectangular SMT microelectronic assembly package with an unspecified body material, screened to TS 16949 automotive quality standards. This screening level gives procurement teams confidence in process consistency and defect rate control, making the module suitable for automotive and industrial wireless applications requiring traceability across a 17-week lead time.
