Save that extra Arduino you have lying around for another project, this two-for-one device has the Arduino built-in. Bluetooth Bee with Arduino is an enhanced version of the Bluetooth Bee. We added an onboard ATMEGA168 to it to make it a full-featured Arduino while maintaining the same footprint and instruction set as the Bluetooth Bee. Plus, it still allows you to stack it on XBee Carrier, XBee® Shield, and UartSBee for expansion or reprogramming
Features
- Small footprint
- Identical settings and pairing methods as the Bluetooth Bee
- Software serial port adopted between the Bluetooth module and ATMEGA168
- Remains compatibile with XBee Carrier, XBee® Shield, and UartsBee for expansion
Hardware Features
- Typical -80dBm sensitivity
- +4dBm RF transmit power
- Fully qualified Bluetooth V2.0+EDR 3Mbps Modulation
- Operating voltage: 3.3v
- Built-in antenna
Software Features
- Software serial port communication method
- Default Baud rate: 38400
- Supported Baud rate: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800
- Under RTS/CTS data transmit-receive framework
- Auto connect the last device on power as default
- Auto-reconnect in 30 minutes after out-of-range disconnection
- Ability to disconnect via a rising edge on PC2
- Working status signal on PB2: low – not working, high – working
- Paired-up status indicator on PIO 10(a red LED) and PIO 11(a blue LED):
- Paired: red and blue blinks 1 time/2s in interval
