Description

The STEVAL-IDB003V1 is an evaluation board

based on BlueNRG, a low power Bluetooth®

Smart IC, compliant with the Bluetooth® 4.0

specifications and supporting both master and

slave roles.

The STEVAL-IDB003V1 features a low power

microcontroller STM32L on board. It is primarily

meant to interface with BlueNRG but is also

available for custom application development.

The STEVAL-IDB003V1 has a USB connector for

PC GUI interaction and firmware update.

The footprint for a JTAG connector is available on

the STEVAL-IDB003V1. When a JTAG connector

is soldered (the connector is not mounted on the

STEVAL-IDB003V1) it enables users developing

a custom firmware on the STM32L

microcontroller.

For a detailed explanation on how to use the

STEVAL-IDB003V1 please refer user manual
