Introduction
Thank you for choosing Radicom RB1000 family Module. We are committed to providing you
quality service and technical support. The RB1000 modules are designed to meet OEM’s needs of
embedding
short-range, low power, wireless data connectivity to their products. The RB1000 family
offers a quick and simple solution for wireless Bluetooth communications.
The Radicom RB1000 family module is designed to meet the emerging market for Bluetooth 4.0
applications. These embedded Bluetooth 4.0 modules integrate entire profiles, applications, and
Bluetooth protocol stack, so no external processor is needed. The module contains an internal S-
Flash so custom parameters and settings can be easily loaded into these modules.
The RB1000 can be factory configured for other Bluetooth cost-effective and power-efficient
wireless consumer products such as watches, medical sensors, mice, TV remote controls and fitness
trainers. The model RB1000-S can also be used to connect to other Bluetooth 4.0 devices such as a
Bluetooth Dongle or PCs that support the Radicom BLE Data Protocol. Contact Radicom for help
adding the BLE Data Protocol functionality to your 4.0 Bluetooth device or for help in determining
which Bluetooth Module is the best fit for your particular Bluetooth application.
The RB1000 family modules can be powered directly with standard 3V coin cell or pair of AAA
batteries. In lowest mode it consumes only 600nA and will wake up in few hundred microseconds.
The RB1000 family provides superior performance in the presence of interference from 802.11
(WiFi) wireless devices and other 2.4GHz radios.
The RB1000 modules support quick connections and data transfers allowing an application to
establish a Bluetooth connection within a few milliseconds for short communication bursts before
quickly disconnecting the Bluetooth connection to save power. It takes much less time to make a
connection than conventional Bluetooth wireless technology and consumes approximately only
1/20
th
of the power of Bluetooth Basic Rate.
The RB1000 is available in surface mount (SMD) or through-hole (Dip) hardware designs. The
RB1000 module is the surface mount model. The RB1000 can also mounted on a conversion board
to create the RB100HM model for serial through-hole design
