A Bx600 Breakout Boards and BL600 DVK BLE Development Options for Any Hardware Budget BLUETOOTH DESIGN THAT SCALES TO YOU. Designing Lairds BL600 into your system has never been easier. Laird now introduces the Bx600 breakout board series, joining alongside the DVK-BL600 development kit. All allow you to connect to and program the BL600 from Windows, OSX, or Linux via UwTerminalX software. The Bx600 breakout boards provide a streamlined approach for simplified BL600 prototyping in as little as a tenth of the cost. They come in three packages: basic breakout board, board with coin cell attachment, and board with coin cell attachment and USB-to-UART adapter. The DVK-BL600 contains a wider variety of hardware components such as interfaces, sensors, LEDs, and power options. THE RIGHT HARDWARE FOR CROSS-PLATFORM SOFTWARE PERSONAL SUPPORT FROM YOUR DESIGN REQUIREMENT LETS YOU DEVELOP YOUR WAY DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE Whether you need a simple prototype Lairds new UwTerminalX software takes Lairds support team is always standing by to option or lots of sensors and interfaces for UwTerminal to the next level, bringing provide integration support, analysis, and testing, Lairds development options have smartBASIC to all desktop environments. troubleshooting for all currently supported you in mind. The Bx600 breakout boards UwTerminalX (Windows / Linux / OSX) lets hardware.
