BLEStack – Bluetooth Low Energy Protocol Stack and Tools
TI’s Bluetooth
®
low energy (BLE)
software development kit includes
all necessary software to get started
on the development of single-mode
Bluetooth low energy applications
using the CC2540/CC2541 system-on-
chip. It includes object code with the
Bluetooth low energy protocol stack,
a sample project and applications with
source code, and BTool, a Windows
PC application for testing Bluetooth
low energy applications. In addition
to the software, the kit contains
documentation, including a developer’s
guide and Bluetooth low energy API
guide.
