This repository contains additional sample applications and components for the Texas Instruments Bluetooth® Low Energy software development kit. All Github sample apps are compatible with BLE-Stack 2.2.x.
To use the examples and tools in this repository, please download and install the SDK first, and if necessary buy an evaluation kit.
For other hardware and software resources, please visit our wiki. If you have any questions please refer to the FAQ page.
Note: Not all additional sample projects are migrated to GitHub. Additionally all examples on this page are targeted for the CC2650R1 device - please refer to the Examples List below.
This repository can be cloned and tracked using Git. For instructions on how to clone a repository from Github please refer to this guide: Clone from Github
For users who are unfamiliar with Git, there is the option of downloading the contents of the repository as a zip file. See instructions below.
- Click the green "Clone or download" button
- Select "Download ZIP" option
- Zip folder will appear in your Downloads folder
This repository can be cloned/download anywhere on your computer. There is a dependency between this repository and the BLE SDK install location.
By default the BLE SDK will install to:
C:\ti\simplelink\ble_sdk_2_02_01_18
If the BLE SDK must be installed to a different location, then the examples in this repo will need to have the following environment variable updated
TI_BLE_SDK_BASE
Follow your IDE specific instructions for changing environment variables or simply do a global search and replace within the ble_examples folder. See the FAQ page for more details.
By default, TI_BLE_SDK_BASE points to C:\ti\simplelink\ble_sdk_2_02_01_18\. If you installed the SDK there, no change is required.
Similar to the BLE-Stack SDK, the examples in this repository support the IAR and CCS toolchains. Please pay careful attention to versions of these tools, the supported version are listed below. Using a non supported version is untested and may result in unexpected behavior.
- IAR for ARM v7.70.2
- CCS v6.2.0 with TI ARM Compiler v5.2.6
For more information on toolchain setup, please refer to our FAQ page.
The FAQ page will try to address some of the common questions related to the ble_examples repo.
Note: All of the sample applications below run on CC2650R1 based devopment kits. These examples will not work on CC2640R2 devices. For R2 examples, please ble_examples-3.0.
