Panasonic PAN1762 BLE 5.0 Module Now at Mouser – Ultra‑Low‑Power, High‑Range, Ready for IoT & Mesh
Designers looking for a compact, energy‑efficient Bluetooth 5.0 solution now have Panasonic’s PAN1762 module available through Mouser Electronics. Built on Toshiba’s TC35680 single‑chip controller, the module delivers the performance and flexibility required for modern IoT, beacon, and mesh network applications.
The PAN1762 features an Arm Cortex‑M0 core with a Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface and 128 KB of flash, enabling fast firmware updates and easy debugging. With integrated standard Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) profiles plus a Serial Port Profile (SPP), the module supports three operating modes: host, AT‑command (soon), and stand‑alone—eliminating the need for an external processor in many designs.
Key BLE 5.0 capabilities include:
- High‑speed 2 M PHY for 2 Mbit/s data transfer
- Long‑range Low‑Energy coded PHY at 500 Kbit/s and 125 Kbit/s
- Maximum output power of 8 dBm
- Exceptional receiver sensitivity of –105 dBm at 125 Kbit/s
Hardware features provide 18 GPIOs shared by two I²C, SPI, and UART interfaces, four PWM outputs, and five ADCs. The 15.6 × 8.7 × 1.9 mm package, coupled with ultra‑low current consumption, makes it ideal for battery‑powered devices. Pinout compatibility with the PAN1760A and PAN1026A modules simplifies migration of existing firmware.
To accelerate development, Panasonic supplies the PAN1762 Evaluation Kit, which includes two USB dongles for coding, debugging, and running applications, along with breakout headers for sensor and device connectivity.
