Overview

This royalty-free BLE-Stack for TI’s SimpleLink™ Bluetooth® Low Energy family of ARM® Cortex®-M3 based wireless microcontrollers (MCUs) includes full-featured Bluetooth 4.2 and Bluetooth 5 certified stacks with all necessary software, sample applications and documentation to quickly get started with the development of single-mode Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) applications.

Features

  • Bluetooth 5 support for 2 Mbps High Speed Mode, Long range Mode (LE coded PHY), Advertising Extensions (AE), Privacy 1.2.1 and Channel Selection Algorithm #2. (BLE5-Stack only)
  • Full support for all Bluetooth core specification 4.2 features: LE Secure Connections, LE Data Length Extension and LE Privacy 1.2.
  • Sample applications for all BLE device roles: Central, Peripheral, Broadcaster/Beacon and Observer.
  • Ability to operate without a 32-kHz crystal in peripheral and beacon configurations.
  • Device Firmware Upgrades using TI’s Over-the-air Download (OAD) service and tools.
  • Advanced topology including concurrent master/slave multi-role operation and support for up to 8 simultaneous connections.
  • Voice-over-BLE support on the CC2650 remote control kit.
  • Standalone System-on-Chip (SoC) and network processor software configurations
  • Ultra-low power advertisement and connected states for applications such as peripherals and beacons, including the popular Apple iBeacon® and Google Eddystone™ formats.
  • Built on top of TI-RTOS framework and includes peripheral drivers and advanced power management libraries.
  • Wide range of sample applications with certified profiles to reduce time to market
  • Bluetooth qualified design listing to reduce certification test time for Bluetooth 4.2.
  • Flexible protocol stack configuration options to maximize application memory.
  • Supported in IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM® and Code Composer Studio™ integrated development environment (IDE) tool chains.
