Fanstel BC832 Micro BLE 5.0 Module for Wearable IoTs

Fanstel BC832 Micro BLE 5.0 Module for Wearable IoTs is an NFC module that uses the Nordic nRF52832 SoC and features an integrated chip antenna. The BC832 is small at only 7.8x8.8x1.3mm and has 16 castellated pins for applications needing a limited number of GPIOs. Additional 20 LGA (Land Grid Array) pins provide access to all nRF52832 GPIO pins.
