Quectel FC20 WiFi & BT Module

Quectel FC20 is a new series of Wi-Fi and BT module featuring high performance and low cost. Designed in ultra-compact 16.6mm × 13.0mm × 2.1mm profile, it optimizes the size and cost for end-products, which fully meets the demands of size sensitive applications. FC20 contains two variants (FC20 and FC20-N) which can be adapted to different application scenarios.

Surface-mount technology (SMT) makes FC20 an ideal solution for durable and rugged designs. The low profile and small size of LCC package make sure FC20 can be easily embedded into size-constrained applications and provide reliable connectivity with these applications. The advanced package allows for large-scale automated manufacturing which has strict requirements on cost and efficiency.

Combining advantages such as compact form factor, low power consumption, extended temperature range and stable SDIO interface, FC20 is typically used in combination with Quectel EC25, EC21 or EC20 R2.0 modules to serve a wide range of M2M applications, such as automotive, security, industrial PDA, MiFi, and medical.
