SimpleLink™ Bluetooth CC256x Devices
Overview
TI SimpleLink CC256x solutions are
complete Bluetooth
®
BR/EDR/LE HCI
or Bluetooth+Bluetooth Low Energy
solutions that reduce design effort and
enable fast time to market.
A royalty-free software Bluetooth
stack available from TI is pre-integrat-
ed with TI’s MSP430™ and ARM
®
Cortex
®
-M4 MCUs. The stack is also
available for MFi solutions and on
other MCUs. Examples of profiles sup-
ported today include: serial port profile
(SPP), human interface device (HID),
A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile), AVRCP (Audio/Video Re-
mote Control Profile) and several BLE
profiles (profiles can vary based on the
supported MCU).
In addition to software, reference
designs are available with a low BOM
cost. For example, TI’s Audio Sink
solution uses the Bluetooth device for
audio processing, an MSP430, audio
DAC and USB charger. TI’s Audio
Source solution is also available. For
more information, visit TI Designs.
