Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5 Module BT832XVer 1.03 May 2017


BluNor BT832X is a powerful, highly flexible, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) using Nordic nRF52832 SoC. With
an ARMCortexTM M4F MCU, available 512KB flash, 64KB RAM, embedded 2.4GHz multi-protocol transceiver,
power amplifier, and an integrated PCB trace antenna. It allows faster time to market with reduced
development cost.

For applications needing limited number of IO pins, prototyping and production are easier using 16 castellated
pins. Additional 24 LGA (Land Grid Array) pins provide access to 29 GPIOs of nRF52832.

Bluetooth 5 specifications allow reducing bandwidth to achieve up to 4X range while maintaining similar power
requirements. BT832Xs achieve longer range by superior antenna circuit and an external power amplifier, not
by reducing bandwidth.

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5 Module BT832XVer 1.03 May 2017

1. Introduction
BluNor BT832X is powerful, highly flexible, ultra low power Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) modules using Nordic
nRF52832 SoCs. With an ARMCortexTM M4F MCU, available 512KB flash, 64KB RAM, embedded 2.4GHz
multi-protocol transceiver, power amplifier, and an integrated antenna, it allows faster time to market with
reduced development cost.

The following is a block diagram of BT832X. Antenna circuit and main clock are integrated. All 32 GPIOs of
nRF52832 can be accessed from main board. For lower power consumption at idle state, an optional 32.768




kHz crystal can be on board. Connection to an external NFC (Near Field Communication) antenna is provided.



2. Codes Development Using Nordic Tools
Development tools by Nordic and other third party development tools recommended by Nordic should be
used .

Easy, fast and safe code development
Nordic development environment for nRF52832 offers a clean separation between application code
development and embedded protocol stacks. This means compile, link and run time dependencies with the
embedded stack and associated debugging challenges are removed. The Bluetooth low energy and ANT stack
is a pre-compiled binary, leaving application code to be compiled stand-alone. The embedded stack interface
uses an asynchronous and event driven model removing the need for RTOS frameworks.

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5 Module BT832XVer 1.03 May 2017

Over-The-Air DFU
The nRF52832 is supported by an Over-The-Air Device Firmware Upgrade (OTA DFU) feature. This allows for
in the field updates of application software and SoftDevice.

SoftDevices
The Nordic protocol stacks are known as SoftDevices and complement the nRF52 Series SoCs. All nRF52
Series are programmable with software stacks from Nordic. This bring maximum flexibility to application
development and allows the latest stack version to be programmed into the SoC.


SoftDevices available from Nordic:
S132: Bluetooth low energy concurrent central/peripheral/observer/broadcaster stack.



Development Tools
Nordic Semiconductor provides a complete range of hardware and software development tools for the
nRF52 Series devices. nRF52 DK board is recommended for firmware development.

The following is a block diagram of Nordic nRF52832 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) SoC.



The 32 bit ARM Cortex M4F MCU with hardware supports for DSP instructions and floating point operations,
code density and execution speed are higher than other Cortex M MCU. The Programmable Peripheral
Interconnect (PPI) system provides a 20-channel bus for direct and autonomous system peripheral
communication without CPU intervention. This brings predictable latency times for peripheral to peripheral

                                                     7

interaction and power saving benefits associated with leaving CPU idle. The device has 2 global power modes
ON/OFF, but all system blocks and peripherals have individual power management control which allows for an
automatic switching RUN/IDLE for system blocks based only on those required/not required to achieve
particular tasks.

The NFC block supports NFC-A tags with proximity detection and Wake-on-field from low power mode. The
NFC enables Out-Of-Band (OOB) Bluetooth pairing of devices and thus greatly simplifying deployment.

Host PCB Layout Guidelines
For the best Bluetooth range performance, we recommend using library component extracted from EV BT840F
V3 Gerber files. It can be downloaded from http://www.fanstel.com/download-document/.

      • There are 21 additional BT840F pins not used by BT832X. These pins are in solid dark color below.

      • As much ground plane under BT832X, on top side of host PCB as possible. Use EV BT840F/EV
        BT832X Gerber files as an example.

      • We recommend 4 or more layers for the host PCB. The top side shall be mostly ground. Signal routing
        shall be in the middle layers.

Mounting BT832X on the Host PCB
The following figure shows recommended mounting of BT832X module on the host PCB.



•   For the best Bluetooth range performance, the antenna area of module shall extend 11.2 mm outside the
    edge of host PCB board, or 11.2 mm outside the edge of a ground plane.

•   Except required for pin connection, ground plane to cover top layer of main board. We recommend multiple




    layers main board avoiding routing on the top layer.

For the best Bluetooth range performance, keep all external metal away from the antenna area.

4. AT Commands
BT832X module is available with firmware supporting AT commands. Part number is BT832X-AT.

Brief description of AT commands
             Each command line consists of a prefix, a body and a terminator.

             All command lines begin with the prefix AT (ASCII 065, 084) or at (ASCII 097, 116).
                                                           17

      The body is a string of characters in the ASCII range 032-255. Control characters other than <CR>
      (carriage return; ASCII 013) and <BS> (back space; ASCII 008) in a command line are ignored.

      The terminator is <CR>.

      There is no distinction between upper-case and lower-case characters. A command line can have a
      maximum length of 80 characters. It is automatically discarded if the input is longer. Corrections are
      made

      AT command is case-insensitive, following /r/n for end code.

      The default baud rate is 9600 one stop bit and no parity

Command mode
When P0.03 of nRF52832 (pin 6 of BT832X) is pulled high, it is set to AT command mode. In AT command
mode, the host processor communicates with the processor on BT832X.

Data Mode
When P0.03 of nRF52832 (pin 6 of BT832X) is pulled low, it is set to data mode. In data model, BT832X
provides transparent data transfer between the host processor and a remote device, for example, a
smartphone.

Communicating with a PC
A quick and easy way to evaluate BT832X is to use a PC as the host processor. Connect the development
board EV-BT832X to a PC with an USB cable. Then,

       Set S1, BT832X is set to command mode. PC will communicate with BT832X.
       Set switch S1 to the other position, BT832X is set to data mode. PC will communicate with a
        remote device through BT832X Bluetooth wireless connection.

Evaluation board can be used as a reference design for using modules. EV BT840F V3 is designed for the
BT840F soldering pads with 61 pins. When a BT832X is mounted on an EV BT840F, it becomes an EV
BT832X. These 21 pins in solid dark color are not connected when a BT832X is mounted.

BT832X has the same soldering pad footprint as BT832 or BT832F. Library component for BT832 and BT840F
can be used. For the Bluetooth range performance, BT840F library component shall be used for your BT832X
design.

Evaluation Board EV BT832X V3 Schematics
EV BT832X V3 evaluation board is developed for BT840F and BT832X. It can be used for BT832 and BT832F.
Pins in solid color are used only for BT840F.

On EV BT832X, SW5 must be set to OFF and use on-board 32.768 KHz clock. Around U1 BT840 (832) red
color pin functions are for BT840F and blue color pin functions are for BT832X.

Additional feature enhancements for version V3 evaluation board:

1. It has the same foot print as Arduino Uno R3. Additional connectors are added for connection to extra GPIO
   pins of BlueNor modules.

2. EV BT832X is not an UNO R3 compatible board. You can use Nordic develop tools to develop firmware for
   many UNO R3 compatible shields.

3. SW5 must be set to OFF and use internal 32.768 kHz crystal or oscillator.

4. Portable smartphone charger can be used to power this board. The circuitry to the left of micro USB
   connector, J16 produces periodic load to prevent portable smartphone charger from shutting down.

Cautions, Design Notes, and Installation Notes
Failure to follow the guidelines set forth in this document may result in degrading of the product’s
functions and damage to the product.
Design Notes
(1) Follow the conditions written in this specification, especially the control signals of this module.
(2) The supply voltage has to be free of AC ripple voltage (for example from a battery or a low noise
    regulator output). For noisy supply voltages, provide a decoupling circuit (for example a ferrite in
    series connection and a bypass capacitor to ground of at least 47uF directly at the module).
(3) This product should not be mechanically stressed when installed.
(4) Keep this product away from heat. Heat is the major cause of decreasing the life of these
    products.
(5) Avoid assembly and use of the target equipment in conditions where the products' temperature
    may exceed the maximum tolerance.
(6) The supply voltage should not be exceedingly high or reversed. It should not carry noise and/or
    spikes.
