WT41-A-AI56 is listed in the RF Transceiver Modules And Modems range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Silicon Labs. Its product description is RF TXRX MODULE SMD. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The Silicon Labs WT41-A-AI56 is a Class 1 Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR RF transceiver module designed for surface-mount installation. It operates at the 2.4 GHz frequency with an integrated chip antenna and supports UART, SPI, PIO, and USB interfaces. The module delivers a maximum output power of 19 dBm and achieves a receiver sensitivity of -92 dBm, enabling a range of up to 500 meters. It functions within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V, with receive current at 52.6 mA and transmit current between 51.6 mA and 120 mA. The device supports data rates up to 3 Mb/s and operates reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
This component has reached End-of-Life status and is no longer manufactured by Silicon Labs. Procurement should focus on verifying the authenticity of remaining stock from authorized distributors. Engineers must confirm that any available units are genuine and undamaged before integration into new designs.
Designers should consider the module's specific power requirements, noting the significant difference between receive and transmit currents. The availability of multiple interface types allows flexibility in system architecture. Due to its discontinued status, alternative solutions or lifecycle management strategies should be evaluated early in the design process.
The WT41-A-AI56 belongs to the WT41u series of Bluetooth modules from Silicon Labs. This series was engineered to provide reliable short-range wireless connectivity with enhanced range capabilities compared to standard Class 2 modules. The part represents a mature technology solution for applications where Bluetooth v2.1 compatibility is required.
Silicon Labs recommends the BT122-A-V2R as a manufacturer-recommended replacement for this discontinued module. Designers should evaluate the BT122-A-V2R for compatibility with existing system requirements and firmware adaptations.
