FSC-BT690 DA14531 Ultra-Mini-Size BLE 5.1 Module

FSC-BT690 is a Bluetooth Low Energy 5.1 (BLE5.1) module that integrates a 2.4 GHz transceiver and an ARM® Cortex-M0+TM microcontroller, featuring 48 kB of RAM and 32 kB of One-Time Programmable (OTP) memory. It can function as a standalone application processor or as a data pump in hosted systems. Its low active RF, MCU current, and low-power mode consumption ensure excellent battery life, suitable for operation on small coin cell batteries and in energy-harvesting applications. The BLE firmware includes L2CAP service layer protocols, Security Manager (SM), Attribute Protocol (ATT), the Generic Attribute Profile (GATT), and the Generic Access Profile (GAP), supporting all Bluetooth® SIG profiles and custom profiles. The FSC-BT690 is ideal for disposables, wireless sensor nodes, beacons, proximity tags and trackers, smart HID devices (such as stylus, keyboards, mice, and trackpads), toys, and medical and industrial applications.
