BMD-200 V0.3 PRELIMINARY Page Page 1 of 12 Rigado LLC 2601 25 th ST SE Suite 200 Salem, Oregon 97302 866-6-RIGADO  (f) 971-208-9869 Blumod BMD-200 Module for Bluetooth 4.0 LE The blumod BMD-200 from Rigado is a powerful, highly flexible Bluetooth Smart module based on the nRF51822 SoC from Nordic Semiconductor. With a 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 2.1V to 3.6V, the BMD-200 can be powered directly from a coin cell or two AAA batteries with ultra-low power consumption. Features  Based on the Nordic nRF51822 SoC  Complete RF solution with integrated chip antenna  Integrated DC-DC converter  No external components required  ARM® Cortex™-M0 32-bit processor  Serial Wire Debug (SWD)  S100 series SoftDevice ready  256 kB embedded flash program memory  16 kB RAM  8/9/10 bit ADC - 8 configurable channels  15 General Purpose I/O Pins  FCC ID: 2AA9B03  One 32-bit and two 16-bit timers with counter mode  SPI Master/Slave (4 Mbps)  Low power comparator  Temperature sensor  Two-wire Master (I2C compatible)  UART (w/ CTS/RTS)  CPU independent Programmable Peripheral Interconnect (PPI)  Quadrature Decoder (QDEC)  AES HW encryption  Real Timer Counter (RTC)  IC: 12208A-01 Applications  App-cessories  iBeacons™  Low-Power Sensors  Connected Appliances  Lighting Products  Health/Fitness devices  Wearables BMD-200 V0.3 PRELIMINARY Page 2 of 12 Quick Specifications Bluetooth Version 4.0 (Bluetooth Smart) Security AES-128 LE connections up to 8 Radio Frequency 2.402GHz to 2480GHz Modulations GFSK at 250 kbps, 1 Mbps, 2 Mbps data rates Transmit power +4 dBm Receiver sensitivity -93 dBm Typical line-of-sight range 30 - 150 meters Antenna Integrated ceramic chip Current Consumption TX only @ +4 dBm, 0 dBm, -4 dBm 16 mA, 10.5 mA, 8 mA RX only @ 2 Mbps, 1 Mbps, 250 kbps 13.4 mA, 13 mA, 12.6 mA CPU @ 16MHz from flash, from RAM 4.4 mA, 2.4 mA System Off , w/ 16K RAM, 8K RAM, no RAM retention 1.8 uA, 1.2 uA, 0.6 uA Dimensions Length 17.00 mm Width 17.00 mm Height 2.89 mm Hardware Interface SPI Master/Slave, UART, Two-Wire Master, GPIO Power supply 2.1V to 3.6V Certifications FCC FCC part 15 modular qualification BMD-200 V0.3 PRELIMINARY Page 3 of 12 Absolution Maximum Ratings Symbol Parameter Min.

Maximum number of high drive strength pins is 3. Clocks The BMD-200 module requires two clocks, a high frequency clock and a low frequency clock. The high frequency clock is provided internally by a high-accuracy 16-MHz crystal as required by the nRF51822 for radio operation. The low frequency clock can be provided internally by an RC oscillator or synthesized from the fast clock; or externally by a 32.768 kHz crystal. An external crystal provides the lowest power consumption. BMD-200 V0.3 CONFIDENTIAL Page 4 of 12 32.768 kHz Crystal Specification Requirements Symbol Parameter Typ. Max.
