BlueNRG-MS

Description

The BlueNRG-MS is a very low power Bluetooth low energy (BLE) single-mode network

processor, compliant with Bluetooth specification v4.1. The BlueNRG-MS supports multiple

roles simultaneously, and can act at the same time as Bluetooth Smart sensor and hub

device.

The Bluetooth Low Energy stack runs on the embedded ARM Cortex-M0 core. The stack is

stored on the on-chip non-volatile Flash memory and can be easily upgraded via SPI. The

device comes pre-programmed with a production-ready stack image (whose version could

change at any time without notice). A different or more up-to-date stack image can be

downloaded from the ST web site and programmed on the device through the ST provided

software tools.

The BlueNRG-MS allows applications to meet of the tight advisable peak current

requirements imposed with the use of standard coin cell batteries. The maximum peak

current is only 10 mA at 1 dBm of output power. Ultra low-power sleep modes and very

short transition times between operating modes allow very low average current

consumption, resulting in longer battery life. The BlueNRG-MS offers the option of

interfacing with external microcontrollers using SPI transport layer.
