With the increasing popularity and use of single-mode Bluetooth low energy in automotive, home office, medical and health, sports and fitness, and mobile and PC accessories, Texas Instruments released its newest BLE-Stack 1.3 software to support continued development and enhancement of Bluetooth low energy.
The new stack includes over-the-air firmware downloads (OAD) which enable updates to CC2540/1 firmware to be downloaded from a central device, such as a phone, tablet or PC, onto the CC2540/1 system-on-chip (SoC) directly over the RF link.
Additionally, for customers using Bluetooth low energy and proprietary implementations, TI’s Boot Image Manager (BIM) allows multiple firmware stacks to reside on a single CC2540/1 SoC. BIM enables an end-product to support two different Bluetooth low energy stacks or a single Bluetooth low energy stack and a single 2,4 GHz proprietary stack.
The new software features are further supported by sample applications with extensive profile support and include upgraded network processor UART and SPI interfaces for improved power management control. To further the development of new Bluetooth low energy applications, BLE-Stack 1.3 also runs on TI’s SensorTag development kit and Mini-kit. The SensorTag development kit is supported by OAD, iOS app and the Bluetooth low energy device monitor.
BLE-Stack 1.3 is available royalty-free to all customers using TI’s CC2540/1 Bluetooth low energy SoC family.
