Evaluation Board STEVAL-IDB009V1

06.08.2020

The new STEVAL-IDB009V1 evaluation board is designed to develop BLE applications with the BlueNRG-248 system-on-a-chip manufactured by STMicroelectronics.

The BlueNRG-248 chip is Bluetooth 5.0 certified and can act as a central or peripheral BLE device. Simultaneous master/slave operation is also supported. The chip has increased throughput due to the function of increased packet length. The BlueNRG-248 chip contains 256 kB FLASH and 24 kB RAM for the BLE stack and user application.

The STEVAL-IDB009V1 board has an LSM6DS3 motion sensor (accelerometer + gyroscope) and an LPS25HB pressure and temperature sensor on board. Interaction with the user is carried out using buttons and LEDs. Virtual COM-port via USB allows you to display debug information on a PC. The board can be powered in three ways - only from USB, only from a battery, or from an external power supply plus USB.

The board works with an external antenna (included in the kit) connected via an SMA connector. The presence of connectors for boards in Arduino format allows you to use a large number of expansion boards with STEVAL-IDB009V1.

To work with the board, you can download the STSW-BLUENRG1-DK package from the manufacturer's website, which includes a graphical Windows shell for loading and running applications through the menu system, as well as various ready-made code examples for traditional development using the IDE.

STSW-BLUENRG1-DK software features:

Software package for BlueNRG-1/2 BLE chips;
PC application BlueNRG-1/2 Navigator;
BlueNRG-1/2 radio initialization settings wizard;
BLE stack in the form of a library with a set of APIs;
Examples of demo applications with low power consumption;
Peripheral drivers and related examples;
Patented RF data transfer driver without BLE with examples;
BlueNRG-1 and BlueNRG-2 SDK and HAL drivers;
CMSIS files for BlueNRG-1/2.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

The world managed to twist 15.09.2011

In 1818, the famous French physicist Augustin-Jean Fresnel suggested that light passing through a moving transparent medium - glass, air, water - should be involved in the movement of this medium.

The predicted effect was discovered at the beginning of the XNUMXth century. Roughly speaking, if you quickly rotate a round glass window, you can make everything visible through it slightly rotate in the direction of rotation - by a millionth of an angular degree.

American physicists, passing a green laser beam along the axis of a ruby cylinder, greatly reduced the speed of light (light reaches three hundred thousand kilometers per second only in a vacuum). A mask with an ellipse-shaped hole was placed in the path of the beam. The cylinder was rotated at 3000 revolutions per minute, and the exit ellipse rotated almost five degrees.

The ability to "twist" light by rotating the medium through which it passes can lead to a new way of encoding information for transmission in a laser beam.
