Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540
In a current product we have on the market, we use a non-TI 16-bit microcontroller to implement our control algorithms. We are looking into the possibility of offering a BTLE accessory that would allow for remote control of our product. I am new to BT so am curious if it is possible to implement the necessary profiles on a 16-bit processor or is an ARM processor required? Also, is it possible to implement the BT stack and profiles on say the CC2540 and then interface the application running on the 16-bit processor through an SPI or similar link thereby keeping all BT related code out of the 16-bit processor?
