BB600-SA

A Bx600 Breakout Boards and BL600 DVK BLE Development Options for Any Hardware Budget BLUETOOTH DESIGN THAT SCALES TO YOU. Designing Laird’s 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 YOUR DESIGN REQUIREMENT CROSS-PLATFORM SOFTWARE LETS YOU DEVELOP YOUR WAY PERSONAL SUPPORT FROM DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE Whether you need a simple prototype option or lots of sensors and interfaces for testing, Laird’s development options have you in mind. The Bx600 breakout boards are a cost-effective and direct: The BB600 has through holes for breadboarding; The BC600 includes a mounted coin cell power adapter for designing low-power solutions directly on the board; The BA600 bundles the coin cell adapter with a USB to UART adapter for power flexibility and PC testing with applications like vSP. The DVK-BL600 offers extensive onboard equipment to help you design for any application. Laird’s new UwTerminalX software takes UwTerminal to the next level, bringing smartBASIC to all desktop environments. UwTerminalX (Windows / Linux / OSX) lets you control the BL600 in command mode and compile, load, and run smartBASIC scripts on the device. Companion apps for UwTerminalX include MultiDeviceLoader, which lets you deploy a script to as many as ten devices at once, and TermNotify, which enables connection alerts and status info from the OS system tray. All of this is hosted on GitHub, so you can modify the project to meet your needs. Laird’s support team is always standing by to provide integration support, analysis, and troubleshooting for all currently supported hardware. Working in the same offices as Laird engineering, Embedded Wireless Support is your personal bridge to all of Laird’s software, experience, and expertise. Laird guarantees a fast response and is dedicated to seeing your product through design to manufacturing. And our online support center serves as an archive of many common questions, as well as hundreds of support documents and software files.
