September 30, 2015 - LSR announces Serial-to-BLE software that simplifies development of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) applications using LSR’s SaBLE-x Bluetooth Smart module, enabling design engineers to incorporate Bluetooth capabilities into products quicker and accelerate product development. Serial-to-BLE accelerates Bluetooth Smart development by providing a simple, comprehensive API library of commands for serial communication via UART between a design's host microcontroller and the SaBLE-x module.
By providing a dynamic library of JSON-based human-readable command sets that users can modify and add to, as well as the source C code for both the MCU and RF module firmware, even developers with minimal experience with Bluetooth Smart can quickly implement Bluetooth for a product with a microcontroller already on board. LSR’s Serial-to-BLE solution also features “PC-as-Host” testing and scripting tools, which means a developer can evaluate and test communications with the PC playing the role of host to the module, saving significant upfront time coding firmware for their system’s MCU.
