1 Introduction
This document is a getting started guide for the Bluegiga BLE113 development kit. The guide instructs you
how to set up the BLE113 development kit, power it up and access the BLE113 using the BLEGUI software.
2 What is BLE113 Bluetooth Smart Module
BLE113 is a
Bluetooth
smart module targeted for small and low power sensors and accessories. It integrates
all features required for a
Bluetooth
smart application:
Bluetooth
radio, software stack and GATT based
profiles. BLE113
Bluetooth
smart module can also host end user applications, which means no external micro
controller is required in size or price constrained devices. BLE113
Bluetooth
smart module also has flexible
hardware interfaces to connect to different peripherals and sensors. BLE113
Bluetooth
smart module can be
powered directly from a standard 3V coin cell battery or pair of AAA batteries. In lowest power sleep mode it
consumes only 500nA and will wake up in few hundred microseconds.
