1.1 Overview

Based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF5340 Bluetooth 5 system on chip (SoC), the NORA-B1 series

of small stand-alone, dual-core modules includes Arm® Cortex®-M33 application and network

processors. The application processor provides a floating-point unit (FPU), digital signal processor

(DSP) instruction set, and CryptoCell™-312 security architecture while the network processor

operates the radio.

NORA-B1 modules support multiple peripherals over high-speed SPI, QSPI, USB, ADC and PWM

interfaces, and include a 2.4 GHz radio capable of handling Bluetooth Low Energy (LE), 802.15.4 for

Thread, Zigbee, and Nordic Semiconductor proprietary protocols. The modules operate in ambient

temperatures of up to 105 °C.

Direction finding (AoA/AoD) and Bluetooth LE Audio features are all supported by the hardware. The

modules support multiple power supply configurations and offer multiple antenna choices, including

U.FL connector, antenna pin, and on-board PCB trace antenna options.

For more information about the antennas that are approved for use with NORA-B1 series, see also the

system integration manual [1].

1.2 Applications
