BL600 Series A Single-Mode BT v4.0 Module with smartBASIC FULLY PROGRAMMABLE. LOW POWER. DRIVEN BY SMARTBASIC. BL600 Series modules from Laird Technologies Bluetooth Smart (BLE v4.0) make it easy to add single-mode Bluetooth Low Onboard Microcontroller Nordic nRF51822 for Energy (BLE), or Bluetooth Smart, to small, hostless operation portable, power-conscious devices, including Tiny footprint (19mm x 12.5mm x 2.5 mm) smartBASIC powers rapid design and deployment those powered by AAA or coin cell batteries. The fully approved, programmable modules Proximity-based secure pairing Lairds unique feature Lairds innovative, event-driven Whisper Mode prevents unauthorized pairing by smartBASIC programming language, which requiring devices be nearby to pair significantly simplifies BLE integration. Large sample application library Sample applications help jump start your development Features at a Glance TRULY HOSTLESS OPERATION FOR AUTOMATED USE CASES Award-winning Nordic nRF51822 microcontroller and smartBASIC make an ideal pair for sensor applications. SPEED TO MARKET WITH smartBASIC Easily write event-driven apps for any use case and run in the module. No toolchain required. PROXIMITY PAIRING TO SCREEN OUT INTRUDERS Application Areas Lairds Whisper Mode requires devices be in close proximity, making it harder for intruders to connect. Health and Medical Devices GLOBAL APPROVALS MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME Carries several modular FCC, IC, CE, MIC and Bluetooth SIG approvals. Enterprise Internet of Things Sensors and Connected Devices PERSONAL SUPPORT FROM DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE Support works onsite with Laird engineering to speed Beacons and Local Messaging your design to market.
