MCX W23 Ultra-Low-Power Bluetooth® LE Wireless MCU

The NXP MCX W23 wireless MCU family is purpose-built for battery-powered IoT applications where ultra-low-power consumption, compact form factor size, and reliability are critical. Designed for wearable, medical, and smart-sensing devices, MCX W23 integrates Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) connectivity with an Arm® Cortex®-M33 application core in a highly efficient, single-chip solution.

The MCX W23 enables long battery life through an optimized low-power architecture and flexible power options that support direct operation from coin-cell and silver oxide batteries. Built-in security features and certification under the NXP EdgeLock® Assurance program help protect connected devices throughout their lifecycle. A comprehensive development ecosystem—including FRDM-MCXW23 boards and sensor expansion options—allows designers to quickly evaluate, prototype, and deploy compact wireless devices for next-generation IoT and medical applications.
