IoT software development kit ready to download
Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF51 IoT Software Development Kit (SDK) is available for download. It is a complete IPv6-ready Internet Protocol Suite for the Bluetooth Smart SoCs of the nRF51 series. It enables small, cost-efficient applications of IoT with ultra low power consumption. The nRF51 series is available at distributor Rutronik.
The SDK enables native and interoperable IP-based connectivity between a Bluetooth Smart ‘thing‘ and a cloud service. It also enables Bluetooth Smart to be used in large, distributed, cloud-connected, heterogeneous networks such as home, industrial, and enterprise automation.
Leveraging the newly adopted Internet Protocol Support Profile (IPSP) from the Bluetooth SIG and 6LoWPAN technology from the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), this SDK takes Bluetooth Smart with Nordic’s nRF51 Series and IoT to the next level by enabling end-to-end IP based communication.
Complementing the SDK, Nordic also supplies a software set-up for emulating a ‘headless’ router with support for IPv6 Bluetooth Smart using a Raspberry Pi (Model B), a Bluetooth Smart Ready USB dongle, Raspbian GNU/Linux Kernel 3.17.4, and a radvd deamon.
The combination of this ‘headless’ router set-up, the new nRF51-DK, and the nRF51 IoT SDK provide developers with a powerful and complete platform for developing Bluetooth Smart based Internet of Things applications with Nordic nRF51 Series SoCs.
The nRF51 IoT SDK is available for download now. This first alpha release supplements the nRF51 SDK and is compatible with the new Nordic nRF51 Development Kit (nRF51-DK).
