Android joins the Bluetooth low-energy movement

This is very good news for BLE firmware and hardware developers like myself. The puzzling thing about their presentation was that it seemed like Google just woke up about the whole BLE development envirnment.

While the announcement is great and will usher in a new phase in development, it would have been nice if the they had peripheral role support. They are still behind iOS on this, but as you mentioned, things should move fast from here on.

With the CC2540, CC2564 and upcoming Cortex M3 BLE devices, there truly is no limit to this!

Greenja: TI’s BLE-Stack and products based on TI Bluetooth low energy seamlessly work with BlackBerry 10. However, we have not yet integrated the SensorTag kit to include BB10 support. Stay tuned for updates.

Are the any plans on including the BlackBerry BB10 and Playbook in future presentations?

How to develop Bluetooth low energy ‘appcessories’

greenja — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 03:22:48 GMT

So on which side does the problem exist?

Is it not possible to write code on the CC254x side to compensate for this instability or is it such a random occurrence that no algorithm (space restricted of course) can resolve?

Hi Greenja- Nothing new to report right now, but stay tuned to our blog to keep up to date with the Wireless Connectivity team’s new products and activities.

How to develop Bluetooth low energy ‘appcessories’

There are a number of Bluetooth low energy apps specifically for Samsung phones. But the problem with all of them is that they cannot give a stable connection, if you are working with a commercial product it is not acceptable that the product works 8 of 10 attempts.

There is no doubt as to the future of this type of interface. iOS has embraced this completely. Why has Android fallen so far behind? Why does TI not work directly with Samsung to get the CC2540 working correctly with their phones and tablets? Thanks,

Could you possibly update us on the current status of BLE on the ARM Cotex M-3 platform and the use of CCS with UniFlash as the IDE?

Thanks,

Are then any updates in regards to seeing BLE on ARM Cortex M-3 processors from TI this year?

Hi Meysam,

If you are using one of these platforms (MSP430/Stellaris: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC3000_Wi-Fi_Platforms); supported as example, then the SPI driver comes as part of the basic Wi-Fi app download (processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC3000_Wi-Fi_Downloads).

If you are using a different MCU, then you can follow the directions mentioned in this porting guide. The SPI driver are host dependent: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC3000_Host_Driver_Porting_Guide

Additionally, below are a couple of links that will help you with CC3000. Let us know if you have any further questions.

The CC3000 software including the software for SPI for TI MCUs can be found here:

processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC3000_Wi-Fi_Downloads

For porting SPI driver to a different MCU, please see instructions here:

processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC3000_Host_Driver_Porting_Guide

Host driver programming guide is here:

Best,

Allie

I am using CC3000 but I cant find SPI driver for it so all function related to SPI are not defined please help me if I need to prepare this driver myself or wherever I can find it.

Thanks
