The EKWT11 & EKWT12 kits
provide an complete evaluation and development solution for customers wishing
to use Bluegiga's Bluetooth modules.
With two boards supplied, these
kits the user is able to create an end-to-end Bluetooth link and evaluate the
full range of iWRAP commands.
It is possible evaluate all of the
input-output interfaces, including audio with on-board Codec and interface
jacks.
Each included evaluation board also is equipped with RS2332
serial interface and SPI interface.
A USB interface is also included to
enable evaluation of the HCI-level interface, which can be enabled using the
supplied On-Board-Installation Tool and software.
Kits are supplied with
RS232 cable and a UK compatible PSU unit, so evaluation can take place straight
out of the box.
iWRAP Software
The WT11 & WT12 modules are
equipped, as standard, with powerful and easy-to-use iWRAP
firmware.
iWRAP enables users to access Bluetooth functionality with
simple ASCII commands delivered to the module over the serial interface - it's
just like a Bluetooth modem.
iWRAP software provides you with several
implementation options:
iWRAP can be configured to operate autonomously without a
host micro-controller - just like a Bluetooth cable replacer
A host system can be used to control iWRAP by using ASCII
commands
The GPIO interface on the WT1x module can be used to
connect host and iWRAP
Besides the iWRAP firmware, Bluegiga also offers several
other firmware options for the modules.
Host Command Interface (HCI)
firmware can be specified when ordering. This is an ideal solution for systems
where the host system is able to run the entire Bluetooth® stack and
profiles. In this case the WT11 & WT12 are used as low power radio over a
UART or USB interface.
2001 and Bluegiga can also provide custom
firmware services, eliminating the need for customers to perform firmware or
parameter installation on production line, significantly reducing the
production cost, time and complexity.
