# Title: BLE 7 Click Board™ ## Description: How Does The BLE 7 Click Board™ Work? The BLE 7 Click Board™ is based on the BGX13S22GA-V31, a module from Silicon Labs that has some impressive features including the fact that it is Bluetooth 5 low energy compliant, GPIO control through command API, Encrypted bonding and connectivity and an Integrated DC-DC Converter. The BGX13S22GA-V31 module eliminates Bluetooth firmware development complexity with a serial interface that can operate as a raw data stream or control the device through a abstracted command API. The BGX13S22GA-V31 can facilitate a device-to-device cable replacement link or communicate with mobile devices through the Xpress Bluetooth mobile library. The device integrates a Bluetooth 5 compliant stack to future-proof applications as Bluetooth 5 adoption increases. The device is targeted for applications where ultra-small size, reliable high-performance RF, low-power consumption, and fast time-to-market are key requirements. BGX13S22GA-V31 also integrates a high-performance, ultra-robust antenna, which requires minimal PCB, plastic, and metal clearance. Minimum and maximum values represent the worst conditions across supply voltage, process variation, and operating temperature, unless stated otherwise. The BGX13S module has only one external supply pin (VDD). There are several internal supply rails mentioned in the electrical specifications, whose connections vary based on transmit power configuration. The BGX13S creates a Bluetooth 5 compliant BLE cable replacement interface, facilitating a BLE link to a second embedded device or a mobile device. An embedded MCU controls the device and communicates across the BLE link through a serial interface and control signals. Parameters stored in non-volatile memory and configurable through the serial interface adjust performance characteristics of the device. Silicon Labs offers iOS and Android mobile libraries for Blue Gecko Xpress devices to speed mobile development and simplify communication with the device. The BLE 7 Click Board™ is designed to be operated only with 3.3V logic level. A proper logic voltage level conversion should be performed before the Click board™ is used with MCUs with logic levels of 5V.

We provide a library for the BLE 7 Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Library Description

This library offers a choice to communicate with the BLE 7 Click Board™ (BGX 13P22GAV21 module). Library can send commands, configurations, status request, pairing request or any other data. Also can receive any response from the BGX module, including confirmed or unconfirmed response (answer), module status, connection status, and any transferred data from the other BGX module. Any BLE 7 Click Board™ can be configured to work as central (server, master) device or as peripheral (client, slave) device. For more details check documentation.

Key Functions

Example Description

The application is composed of three sections :

void applicationTask()
{
    rx_data = UART_Rdy_Ptr();
    
    if (rx_data != _RX_NOT_READY)
    {
        rx_data = UART_Rd_Ptr();
        
        checkRX();
    }
    
    logRsp();
}

Additional Functions :

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be found on our LibStock page.

Additional Notes and Information

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need a USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.

MIKROSDK

The BLE 7 Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
