Fuldt kvalificeret Class 2 Bluetooth modul
Roving Networks lancerer RN-42, der er fuldt kvalificeret Class 2 Bluetooth modul (in english).
The RN-42 from Roving Networks is functionally compatible with the excisting RN-41. The primary difference between the RN-42 and RN-41 is that the RN-42 is a Class 2 device, meaning its range is about 50 to 60 feet and correspondingly the power consumption is reduced.
The RN-42 is perfect for short range, battery powered applications and by default is ready to use in the SPP configuration. The RN-42 uses only 26uA in sleep mode while still being discoverable and connectable. Multiple user-configurable power modes allow the user to dial in the lowest power profile for a given application.
With support for multiple Bluetooth profiles such as SPP and HID, and a simple UART hardware interface, it is simple to both integrate into an embedded system or connect to an existing device. For applications that require an external antenna the RN-42 is also available in a package without antenna.
Roving Networks can also provide an evaluation board (RN-42-SM), a though hole, low power and highly flexible Bluetooth socket module. This socket module is the perfect method for adding Bluetooth wireless capability to existing products without redesign, saving significant time and money.
The main-features:
• Fully qualified Class 2 Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR module
• FCC and Bluetooth SIG qualified
• UART (SPP or HCI) and USB (HCI only) data connection hardware interfaces
• Onboard embedded Bluetooth stack (no host processor required)
• Supports Bluetooth data link to iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch
• Supports HID profile for making accessories such as Keyboards, mouse, pointing devices
• Programmable low power modes
• Secure communications, 128 bit encryption
• Error correction for guaranteed packet delivery
• UART local and over-the-air RF configuration
• Auto-discovery/pairing requires no software configuration (instant cable replacement)
• Castellated SMT pads for easy and reliable PCB mounting
