Modules
Overview
Rigado’s
BMD-‐200
is
a
powerful,
highly
flexible
Bluetooth
Smart
module
based
on
the
nRF51822
SoC
from
Nordic
Semiconductor.
With
an
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
1.8V
to
3.6V,
the
BMD-‐200
can
be
powered
directly
from
a
coin
cell
or
two
alkaline
with
ultra-‐low
power
consumption.
