BlueNRG development kits

Introduction

This document describes the BlueNRG development kits and related hardware and

software components. The BlueNRG is a very low power Bluetooth

low energy (BLE)

single-mode network processor, compliant with Bluetooth specifications core 4.0. The

BlueNRG can act as master or slave.

There are two types of BlueNRG kits:

1. BlueNRG development platform (order code: STEVAL-IDB002V1)

2. BlueNRG USB dongle (order code: STEVAL-IDB003V1)

The BlueNRG software package includes a graphical user interface application to control

the BlueNRG through a simple ACI protocol.

2 Hardware description

The following sections describe the components of the kits.

2.1 STEVAL-IDB002V1 motherboard

The motherboard included in the development kit allows testing of the functionality of the

BlueNRG processor. The board can be used as a simple interface between the BlueNRG

and a GUI application on the PC. The STM32L microcontroller on the board can also be

programmed, so the board can be used to develop applications using the BlueNRG. A

connector on the motherboard (Figure 1) allows access to the JTAG interface for

programming and debugging. The board can be powered through a mini-USB connector

that can also be used for I/O interaction with a USB Host. The board includes sensors, and

buttons and a joystick for user interaction. The RF daughterboard can be easily connected

through a dedicated interface.

This is a list of some of the features that are available on the boards:

•STM32L151RBT6 64-pin microcontroller

•Mini USB connector for power supply and I/O

•JTAG connector

•RF daughterboard interface

•One RESET button and one USER button

•One LIS3DH accelerometer

•One STLM75 temperature sensor

•One joystick

•5 LEDs

•One PWR LED

•One battery holder for 2 AAA batteries

•One row of test points on the interface to the RF daughterboard

2.1.1 Microcontroller and connections

The board features an STM32L151RB microcontroller, which is an ultra low-power

microcontroller with 128 KB of Flash memory, 16 KB of RAM, 32-bit core ARM cortex-M3, 4

KB of data EEPROM, RTC, LCD, timers, USART, I

C, SPI, ADC, DAC and comparators.

The microcontroller is connected to various components such as buttons, LEDs and

connectors for external circuitry. The following table shows what functionality is available on

each microcontroller pin.

2.1.2 Power

The board can be powered either by the mini USB connector CN1 (A in Figure 3) or by 2

AAA batteries. To power the board through USB bus, jumper JP1 must be in position 1-2, as

in Figure 3 (B). To power the board using batteries, 2 AAA batteries must be inserted in the

battery holder at the rear of the board, and jumper JP1 set to position 2-3.

When the board is powered, the green LED DL6 is on (C).

If needed, the board can be powered by an external DC power supply. Connect the positive

output of the power supply to the central pin of JP1 (pin 2) and ground to one of the four test

point connectors on the motherboard (TP1, TP2, TP3 and TP4).
