Blumod BMD-200 Module for Bluetooth 4.0 LE

The blumod BMD-200 from Rigado is a powerful, highly flexible Bluetooth Smart module based on the

nRF51822 SoC from Nordic Semiconductor. With a ARM® Cortex™ M0 CPU, embedded 2.4GHz transceiver,

and on-module chip antenna, the BMD-200 provides a complete RF solution with no additional RF design,

allowing faster time to market. The BMD-200 provides full use of the nRF51822’s on-chip peripherals,

allowing for a wide range of applications without the need for an external host microcontroller; simplifying

designs and reducing BOM costs. With an internal DC-DC converter and a voltage supply range of 2.1V to 3.6V,

the BMD-200 can be powered directly from a coin cell or two AAA batteries with ultra-low power

consumption.
