Description: The Bluetooth® Low Energy Pioneer Kit enables customers to evaluate and develop Bluetooth Low Energy applications using the PSoC® 4 BLE and PRoC™ BLE devices. The BLE Pioneer Kit supports system-level designs using PSoC Creator which includes numerous example projects to enable Bluetooth Low Energy mixed signal embedded designs. The Bluetooth Low Energy v4.1 specification has been abstracted into the new BLE Component in PSoC Creator, allowing for easy drag-and-drop designs. The kit has been designed to allow for maximum design flexibility enabling Arduino™ shields hardware compatibility and easy to use, FCC-certified PSoC 4 BLE and PRoC BLE Modules.

Low System Cost:

• The BLE Pioneer Kit provides users easy access to the new PSoC 4 BLE and PRoC BLE devices, while maintaining the familiar CY8CKIT-042 PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit design footprint.
• The kit includes a CY5677 - CySmart Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2 USB Dongle (BLE Dongle) that pairs with the CySmart master emulation tool, converting your Windows® PC into a powerful Bluetooth LE debug environment.
• The kit has been designed to allow for easy development at a low cost. The kit design and layout allows for customers to easily develop embedded solutions that require both mixed-signal capabilities and a Bluetooth LE radio.

Lowest System Power:

• The BLE Pioneer Kit has been designed to allow customers to develop low power designs.
• The kit provides both power measurement jumpers and a coin cell holder and battery for low power evaluation.
• The kit allows the user to evaluate lower power modes in a wide operating voltage range of 1.7 - 5.5 V.
