Is this chip suitable for my application?

Hello,

I am considering to use the TI chip in my future product, few question:

1. Can this bluetooth TI chip communicate with commercial BT built  on phones, Pad, PC, etc ? What are the required specs for their BT?

2. How can I access data tramsmitted by the TI chip at PC level, let say application written in VB6 or Delphi? Are there a specific DLL I have to install at PC or Phone?

3. As far as I saw in this forum Serial profile (SPP)  is not supported, which is the alternative way to receive data via standard BT and use them in a PC application in the simpliest possible way?

Thanks in advance who may give advice

Regards

Davide

    Hi Davide,

    1. You can only communicate with devices that explicitly support BLE. BLE is not backwards compatible with Bluetooth 2.x or 3.x devices. Devices with BLE support are just starting to appear on the market.

    2. I'll let somebody else get back to you on this item.

    3. SPP is not currently defined over BLE. The most common way of sending data over BLE involves using ATT/GATT and defining attributes for the data you want to transmit. ATT/GATT will also be supported over the legacy Bluetooth PHYs (BR/EDR) going forward.

    Best regards,

    Karl
