GEM 2 Module Hardware Integration Guide
Overview and Key Features
The GEM module has been designed to allow OEMs to easily add Bluetooth and ANT+
wireless connectivity in their product offering. The GEM 2 module incorporates Wahoo
Fitness software specifically designed to enable fitness machines such as treadmills,
exercise bikes, ellipticals, rowers, stair climbers and step machines to wirelessly
communicate exercise data with smart phone or tablets as well as leaderboard software
systems. For applications other than fitness machines, developer's can use Nordic
Semiconductor's SDK to create their own embedded application specific software.
The GEM 2 module is based on Nordic Semicondutor's nRF52832 multiprotocol Bluetooth
and ANT+ chipset. The GEM 2 module offers a variety of peripheral interfaces including
UART, SPI, I2C, ADC, and GPIO, has a maximum transmit power of +4dBm, and a sensitivity
of ‐96dBm. This manual is intended to assist hardware integration of the GEM 2 module
into a given design. Details on Wahoo's GEMSAFE and GEMHCI software can be found
www.wahoogy.com. For applications using Nordic Semiconductor SDK, please refer to
Nordic Semiconductor's SDK available at developer.nordicsemi.com.
