Overview

The CC2540 USB Dongle is a complete example of how to use the USB enabled Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Wireless MCU. The reference design can be used to enable Bluetooth Smart and Internet of Things applications on any system that contains a USB host.

Features

  • Simple BLE to USB connection - Adds BLE to an existing product with USB
  • Debug header, LEDs and buttons included - Enables faster development
  • It can also be used as a packet sniffer for analyzing the BLE protocol and for software and system level debugging (use the free tool SmartRF Packet Sniffer)
