BLED112 Bluetooth Dongle integrates all Bluetooth 4.0 single mode features. The USB dongle can simulate standard USB device, virtual COM port or USB HID device.

Bluegiga BLE112 Development Kit

Together with Bluegiga's Bluetooth 4.0 Software Development Kit, this hardware platform offers a full Bluetooth low energy application development suite,

Bluetooth 4.0 - Bluetooth low energy is a new, open standard developed by the Bluetooth SIG. It is targetted to address the needs of new modern wireless applications, such as ultra-low power consumption, fast connection times, reliability and security. Bluetooth low energy consumes 10-20 times less power and is able to transmit data 50 times more quickly than classical Bluetooth solutions.

 

Bluetooth low energy is designed for new emerging applications and markets such as:

 

  • Health and fitness
  • Consumer medical
  • Smart energy
  • Security
  • Proximity and presence
  •  

    It still embraces features from the classical, well established Bluetooth technology:

     

  • Robustness and reliability
  • Security
  • Global availability
  • Interoperability

     

    Bluetooth low energy devices come in two flavours:

     

  • Single-mode - devices that only support Bluetooth low energy and are optimized for low-power, low-cost and small size solutions.
  • Dual-mode - devices that support Bluetooth low energy and classical Bluetooth technologies and are interoperable with all the previously Bluetooth specification versions.
