How to get own VID & PID for BLE?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540, CC2541

Hi,

Our customer is asking how to get the VID & PID for the BLE? Currently the understanding is that our TI chipsets come with these 2 ID and our customer need their own VID & PID.

Please advise how should we go about getting it.

Thanks.

    Hello,

    Although you didn't provide many details, I'm assuming you are using the CC2540. You can find the USB Descriptors in usb_cdc_descriptor.s51.
    To get your own USB PID/VID assigned, you'll need to see usb.org.

    Best wishes

    Hi JXS,
    Sorry for not giving details. The customer is using CC2541 for remote control. He wants to know if their product is used for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) application, do they need to have their own VID and PID.
    If yes, how should we go about getting it.Thanks.

    Hello,

    VID/PID are not used for BLE.
    Please direct them to view some introductory BLE material on the TI BLE Wiki: www.ti.com/ble-wiki.

    Hi JXS,
    In devinfoservice.c, you can find vendor ID and product ID information below where TI's vendor ID is 0x000D.
    static uint8 devInfoPnpId[DEVINFO_PNP_ID_LEN] ={
    1, // Vendor ID source (1=Bluetooth SIG)
    LO_UINT16(0x000D), HI_UINT16(0x000D), // Vendor ID (Texas Instruments)
    LO_UINT16(0x0000), HI_UINT16(0x0000), // Product ID (vendor-specific)
    LO_UINT16(0x0110), HI_UINT16(0x0110) // Product version (JJ.M.N)};
    I assume the answer is for the customer to get unique Vendor ID from Bluetooth SIG after becoming a member and they manage themselve for Product ID after reading Device Information Service :)
    Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.

    Hello,

    This is the Company Identifier. You can find more info at SIG: (requires registration). Note that device info service is optional.
