PAN1780 Bluetooth Module

2 Overview

The PAN1780 is a Bluetooth 5 Low Energy (LE) module based on the Nordic nRF52840
single-chip controller.
The Bluetooth 5 features additionally a higher symbol rate of 2 Mbps using the high-speed LE
2M PHY or a significantly longer range using the LE coded PHY at 500 kb/s or 125 kb/s. The
new channel selection algorithm (CSA#2) improves the performance in high interference
environments. Furthermore, the new LE advertising extensions allow for much larger amounts
of data to be broadcasted in connectionless scenarios.
An output power of up to 8 dBm and the high sensitivity of the nRF52840 in combination with
the LE coded PHY makes the module very attractive in applications, where a long range is
required.
In addition the ultra-low current consumption of the PAN1780 makes the module an ideal choice
for battery powered devices.
®
With the Cortex M4F processor, 256 kB RAM and the build-in 1 MB flash memory the
PAN1780 can easily be used in standalone mode, thereby eliminating the need for an external
processor, saving complexity, space, and cost.
The rich set of security features from the ARM TrustZone CryptoCell 310 security subsystem
provide the necessary means for secure device operation in the IoT space.
The PAN1780 also supports Type 2 Near Field Communication (NFC-A) for use in simplified
pairing and payment solutions (external antenna required).
