US159-DA14531EVZ
DA14531 Pmod™ Board
The US159-DA14531EVZ is a low power Bluetooth
Pmod module that enables you to add a low power
Bluetooth™ capability to any evaluation kit or MCU
board equipped with a Pmod expansion capability.
The board provides a standard Pmod Type 3A
(expanded UART) connection for the onboard
Bluetooth 5.1 module.
The US159-DA14531EVZ features a Type 3A Pmod
connector and incorporates the DA14531 SmartBond
TINY™ Module, which uses the efficient Bluetooth 5.1
SoC. With a standard connector and software
support, the US159-DA14531EVZ is ideal for the
Renesas Quick-Connect IoT to rapidly create an IoT
system.
