Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, announces availability of Bluetooth low energy modules, solutions and applications from Panasonic.

Bluetooth Low Energy, also known as Bluetooth LE or BLE is a wireless computer network technology aimed at novel applications in the healthcare, fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. Compared to classic Bluetooth technology, BLE requires much lower power consumption and offers a lower cost while maintaining the same communication range.

Bluetooth Low Energy is a subset of Bluetooth v4.0 with an entirely new protocol stack for rapid build-up of simple links. Unlike Bluetooth standard protocols introduced in Bluetooth versions 1.0 to 3.0, it is aimed at very low power applications that can run off a coin-cell battery for several months or even years.

Bluetooth LE uses the same 2.4 GHz ISM band radio frequencies as Classic Bluetooth. This allows dual-mode devices to share a single radio antenna. However, Bluetooth LE uses a modulation system that is much simpler.

Bluetooth LE technology offers new opportunities for designers and developers of Bluetooth applications with several key advantages, including ultra-low peak, average and idle mode power consumption; low power requirements (it can run for several months or years on standard, coin-cell batteries); small size; low cost; multi-vendor interoperability; and compatibility with a large base of mobile phones, computers and tablets.

This opens up a wide range of exciting possibilities for this technology. The main markets where BLE is perfectly suited are sports & fitness, security & proximity sensing, home entertainment, and health & wellness.

Bluetooth Low Energy has also found uses in several other fields, including alerts and time profiles, automotive applications, smart energy applications, and home automation.
