Product description
The NINA-B1 series modules are stand-alone Bluetooth low energy modules featuring Bluetooth v4.2 and the latest state-of-the-art power performance. The Bluetooth low energy profiles and services are embedded in the module. This module is offered in professional grade for applications such as health care, asset tracking, connected cities, home automation, smart energy, manufacturing and telematics.
The NINA-B1 is tailored for OEMs who wish to embed their own application on top of the available Bluetooth low energy stack and/or to embed Bluetooth services/attributes on top of the integrated software stack and tools using ARM mbed IDE. The NINA-B1 is a stand-alone product with no additional hardware required. Additional sensors, including temperature sensor, accelerometers, LEDs, can be connected directly to the module via
GPIO, ADC, I2C, SPI and UART.
The NINA-B1 embeds firmware with the u-blox Low Energy Serial Port Service for replacing serial cables or accessing UART devices using Bluetooth low energy technology.
The modules are fully Bluetooth qualified and provide global modular approval. They are also compliant with Safety and Medical standards.
The operating temperature range is –40 °C to +85 °C.
