Bluetooth Module

Bluetooth module for wireless data transmission in portable wood moisture analyzers

Component Specifications

Definition
A compact electronic component that enables wireless Bluetooth communication between a portable digital wood moisture analyzer and external devices such as smartphones, tablets, or computers. It facilitates real-time data transfer, remote monitoring, and integration with digital forestry management systems without physical connections.
Working Principle
Operates on Bluetooth protocol (typically Bluetooth 4.0/5.0 Low Energy) using frequency-hopping spread spectrum in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The module converts digital moisture measurement data from the analyzer's microcontroller into RF signals, transmits them wirelessly, and receives configuration commands from paired devices.
Materials
PCB substrate (FR-4), surface-mount components (ICs, resistors, capacitors), antenna (ceramic or PCB trace), shielding can, gold-plated contacts

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical transmission range of this Bluetooth module?

The module provides a reliable transmission range of up to 10 meters in open environments, though this may reduce slightly in dense wood storage areas due to signal attenuation.

How does the Bluetooth module handle power consumption in portable devices?

It uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology with optimized sleep modes, consuming less than 1 μA during standby and 8 mA during active transmission, maximizing battery life in portable analyzers.

Can this module connect to multiple devices simultaneously?

No, it typically supports point-to-point connections with one master device at a time, though it can quickly re-pair with different devices as needed for data collection flexibility.
