The National Semiconductor LMX9830 Bluetooth Serial Port module is a highly integrated Bluetooth 2.0 baseband controller and 2.4 GHz radio, combined to form a complete small form factor (6.1 mm x 9.1 mm x 1.2 mm) Bluetooth node. All hardware and firmware is included to provide a complete solution from antenna through the complete lower and upper layers of the Bluetooth stack, up to the application including the Generic Access Profile (GAP), the Service Discovery Application Profile (SDAP), and the Serial Port Profile (SPP). The module includes a configurable service database to fulfil service requests for additional profiles on the host. Moreover, the LMX9830 is pre-qualified as a Bluetooth Integrated Component. Conformance testing through the Bluetooth qualification program enables a short time to market after system integration by insuring a high probability of compliance and interoperability. Based on National?s CompactRISC® 16-bit processor architecture and Digital Smart Radio technology, the LMX9830 is optimized to handle the data and link management processing requirements of a Bluetooth node. The firmware supplied in the on-chip ROM memory offers a complete Bluetooth (v2.0) stack including profiles and command interface. This firmware features point-to-point and point-to-multipoint link management supporting data rates up to the theoretical maximum over RFComm of 704 kbps (Best in Class in the industry). The internal memory supports up to 7 active Bluetooth data links and one active SCO link. The on-chip Patch RAM provided for lowest cost and risk, allows the flexibility of firmware upgrade. The LMX9830 module is lead free and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant.
