The Ezurio BL654 Development Kit provides a platform for rapid wireless connectivity prototyping, providing multiple options for the development of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) plus Near Field Communication (NFC) applications. The Ezurio BLE development kit is designed to support the rapid development of applications and software for the BL654 series of BLE modules smart featuring Ezurio’s innovative event driven programming language –...
BASIC are simple and easy to develop for any BLE application. Sample BASIC applications scripts are available to download from the Ezurio GitHub repository on the BL654 product page at https://github.com/LairdCP/BL654-Applications. The development board also can be used with Nordic SDK.
Additionally, SIO_35 (the nAutoRUN input pin on the module) can be driven by the USB_DTR output pin of the FTDI chip. This allows testing the $autorun$ application on boot without setting the autorun jumper on the development board. nAutorun can be controlled directly from Ezurio’s UWTerminalX using the DTR tick box. 6.5.1 UART Interface Driven by USB USB Connector: The development kit provides a USB Type Micro-B connector (USB1) which allows connection to any USB host device.
BASIC are available in the smart BASIC User Guide available at the Ezurio product page for BL654, along with a document giving a basic introduction to UwTerminalX. A help file is included with UwTerminalX that gives an overview of the program.
NFC External Antenna Connector and NFC Antenna RF Matching Circuit The NFC antenna input connector (CON2) allows the Ezurio supplied flex-PCB NFC antenna to be plugged in. The BL654 module NFC circuit uses two pins, pin 59 (NFC1/SIO_9) and pin 57 (NFC2/SIO_10) to connect the antenna. These pins are shared with GPIOs (SIO.09 and SIO.10). BL654 smart NFC pins are enabled by default.
BASIC sample application repository on the BL654 product page at https://github.com/LairdCP/BL654-Applications exercises the following over the BL654 NFC: NFC: On Android NFC enabled devices – Opens Ezurio Toolkit or shows it in the Google Play store if not installed • On Windows NFC enabled devices – Opens the calculator •...
