®
family of Bluetooth modules. EZ-BT modules are fully qualified
and certified Bluetooth solutions, supporting Bluetooth Basic Rate, Enhanced Data Rate, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
standards. These modules provide a complete Bluetooth solution, integrating a Bluetooth radio system, crystal, antenna,
and passive components required for Bluetooth operation. This application note helps you explore the EZ-BT Module
architecture and development tools and shows you how to create your first project from existing sample application projects
within WICED Studio SDK. This application note also guides you to more resources to accelerate in-depth learning about
EZ-BT WICED solutions.
