Product Overview
The FRDM-KW41Z is a freedom development board for Kinetis KW41Z microcontroller with 2.4GHz BLE, generic FSK and 802.15.4 wireless connectivity solutions. Integrating Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) v4.2, generic FSK (at 250, 500 and 1000Kbit/s) and IEEE 802.15.4 compliant modem, Kinetis KW41Z MCUs can support multiple protocols running concurrently (time slice) in a single chip. This MCU is also integrate a buck boost DC to DC converter supporting a wide range of operating voltages from 0.9 V to 4.2 V, significantly reducing the peak current in receive and transmit modes. At the same time, this MCU family delivers an excellent link budget that ensures the longest range of communication and high immunity to interference.
