BMD-200 Evaluation Kit User Guide
This document describes the
BMD-200
Evaluation Kit from Rigado.
This Evaluation Kit allows for stand-alone use of the
BMD-200
module featuring the Nordic nRF51822 RF System on Chip (SoC).
The purpose of this guide to provide setup instructions for starting
development and to describe the hardware functionality of the
BMD-200
Evaluation Kit.
1.
Overview
The BMD-200 Evaluation Kit is a versatile hardware platform that provides an easy jumping off point for
almost any Bluetooth 4.1 Low Energy project. The kit can be powered externally via USB or with a CR2032
coin cell battery for portable use. USB provides a programming and debug interface (J-Link or CMSIS-DAP), as
well as communication via a virtual COM port. Two user configurable buttons are available, as well as an RGB
LED, ambient light sensor, accelerometer, EEPROM, and a current sense resistor. There is also an on-board
reset button. Breakout headers allow easy access to all of the BMD-200 GPIO pins.
