TTL Bluetooth Dongle

Wireless data comms made easy

Published in issue 398, February 2010

TTL Bluetooth Dongle
Need to connect your circuit to a PC to transfer measurement values or data? How about wirelessly? If you think that would be way too complex, think again. The solution offered here is a Bluetooth device which from your circuit’s point of view looks just like a UART with a PC (or other device) attached to the other end. It’s as simple as plugging in a USB to TTL cable but without the wires!
