Getting started with the X-NUCLEO-BNRG2A1 BLE expansion board based on BLUENRG-M2SP module for STM32 Nucleo

2021-12-13
●Introduction:
■The X-NUCLEO-BNRG2A1 expansion board provides Bluetooth low energy connectivity for developer applications and can be plugged onto an STM32 Nucleo development board (e.g., NUCLEO-L476RG with ultra-low power STM32 microcontroller) through its Arduino UNO R3 connectors.
■The expansion board features the Bluetooth® v5.0 compliant and FCC certified BlueNRG-M2SP application processor module based on the ST BlueNRG-2 System-on-Chip. This SoC manages the complete Bluetooth low energy stack and protocols on its Cortex-M0 core and programmable Flash, which can accommodate custom applications developed using the SDK. The BlueNRG-M2SP module supports master and slave modes, increased transfer rates with data length extension (DLE), andAES-128 security encryption.
■The X-NUCLEO-BNRG2A1 interfaces with the STM32 Nucleo microcontroller via SPI connections and GPIO pins, some of which can be configured by the hardware.
●Typical applications:
■The X-NUCLEO-BNRG2A1 expansion board can be used for the evaluation of the BlueNRG-M2 device in many applications, such as:
◆point-to-point communication;
◆sensor application;
◆home automation and lighting;
◆direct test mode (DTM).
