Introduction
 
This document provides detailed hardware requirements and board connections for the X-
NUCLEO-IDB04A1 Bluetooth
STM32 Nucleo. This board is part of STMicroelectronics' offering of evaluation boards
designed around the BlueNRG Bluetooth low energy wireless network processor.
 
The excellent performance of BlueNRG and the best matching between BlueNRG and
BALF-NRG, X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 passed the RF TEST for Japan Radio Law certification
with higher margin above the specification values as well as it is FCC certified (FCC ID:
S9NIDB04A1).
 
 
Other BlueNRG evaluation boards are available in the following kits:
STEVAL-IDB002V1: BlueNRG development platform
STEVAL-IDB003V1: BlueNRG USB dongle

  • Page 7: Current Measurements

    Current measurements   To monitor the power consumption of entire BlueNRG X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 board, jumper U5 can be used, inserting an ammeter probe between pins 1 and 2 of the connector. Since the power consumption of BlueNRG during most of its operating time is very low, an accurate instrument in the range of few uA may be required.
