A battery-powered evaluation kit is being offered by Nordic Semiconductor for its latest nRF51 series of low-power 2,4 GHz ICs. The kit supports real-world environmental testing of ANT/ANT+, Bluetooth low energy (including Bluetooth Smart) and proprietary 2,4 GHz wireless sensors and accessories.
The nRF51 series evaluation kit is applicable to both of the first two ICs to début in the nRF51 Series: the nRF51822 multi-protocol Bluetooth low energy/2,4 GHz proprietary RF system-on-chip (SoC), and the nRF51422 ANT/ANT+ SoC.
Each kit is compatible with a range of application examples contained within Nordic’s nRF51 series SDK (software development kit) and comprise nRF51x evaluation board (with all components mounted single-side), nRF51x USB dongle, coin-cell battery compartment, PCB strip antenna, Segger J-Link debug capability, USB port for computer link-up, 32 I/O header pins for access to all GPIOs, two miniaturised buttons plus two miniaturised LEDs available for user-defined functions, and current measurement pins.
The dongle-based system frees development engineers from their test-bench setup to write code, test and perform in situ evaluations anywhere.
