New Product: LM068 BT v4.1

/in , , /by

A new product has been added to the LM range, The LM068 is the world’s smallest Bluetooth® serial adapter (RS232), providing a secure and reliable Bluetooth® v4.1 connection.

  • DTE / DCE (Master / Slave) mode switch
  • DTR / DSR Handshaking and RTS / CTS Flow control lines
  • Full Duplex for simultaneous communication between sender and receiver
  • Low Power Consumption
  • Over-the-Air Upgrade (OTAU) available
  • Application firmware support

Designed to replace RS232 cables between a master (DTE) device and slave (DCE) devices such as printers, data loggers and digital signalling devices. This standalone adapter incorporates a microcontroller unit with an 8 Mbit flash memory for running the application.

The firmware controls the RS232 signals, including DTR / DSR handshaking and RTS / CTS flow control lines. The AT Command set is used to change the configurations, plus the developer can also configure and modify the settings of a remote LM068 from a local LM068. Customised configurations and settings can be preloaded to the LM068, simplifying the manufacturing and testing process.

We also offer Bluetooth® Dual Mode applications, which can be customised to your specification. The module can be used as a bridge between Bluetooth® v2.0, v2.1 and Bluetooth® v4.0, v4.1 devices, using our SPP to Serial Bridge application. We also offer SPP with GAP Central and SPP or GAP Peripheral applications.

Estimated Sample Availability: May 2018
