Bluefruit EZ-Link Bluetooth Serial Link - Adafuit Arduino Programmer BT RF FTDI Description Resistors Direct is a privately owned US business full of fun hard working people. We sell only products that we would personally use. Most items are shipped the next business day following receipt of payment. Shipments are sent using USPS, FedEx, and UPS and typically take 2 to 5 business days to arrive at most U.S. locations.   At Resistors Direct your questions will be answered as quickly as possible and issues will be resolved promptly.  Please call us if you need additional assistance at (402) 404-6972. If we miss you, please leave us a message.     Package Includes:   1 - Bluefruit EZ-Link Module 2 - Header Pins 1 - Capacitor 1 - Power Connector     Details:   The Bluefruit EZ-Link is a regular 'SPP' serial link client device, that can pair with any computer or tablet and appear as a serial/COM port (except iOS as iOS does not permit SPP pairing). But here is where it gets exciting: unlike any other BT module, the EZ-Link can automatically detect and change the serial baud rate. That means if you open up the COM port on your computer at 9600 baud, the output is 9600, 57600? 57600. Yep even 2400. All the most common baud rates are supported: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 and 230400. You never have to configure or customize the module by hand - it all happens completely automatically inside the RF module. Now if we stopped there, you'd probably think "wow that is pretty nice" but we didn't stop there! The EZ-Link has another impressive feature: the DTR/RTS/DSR flow control pins are automatically synced to the computer serial port. What this means is that if the computer sets the hardware flow control DTR or RTS pins high or low the pins on the bluetooth module will follow. If the DSR input pin is brought high or low on the EZ-Link, the computer can detect that as well. Every other Bluetooth SPP device we've ever seen, if they even have the RTS/DTR pins brought out, do not sync back to the computer, instead the flow control is for the module serial buffer itself. Together, this creates something pretty amazing: a Bluetooth module that can change baud rates on the fly and toggle the DTR pin as desired. What we've got here now is a way to program an Arduino (or compatible) from 10 meters away, completely wirelessly, with no extra software, custom hardware, odd firmware hacks or modified firmware. In fact, you can use the Bluefruit as a sort of 'wire free' FTDI-like cable with any device that has an FTDI re-programming port. It works great, and you can use the serial console as well. This package includes the necessary 1uF capacitor between the DTR and reset pin. To round out the design we also added two RX/TX indicator LEDs so you can tell when data is sent & received as well as a connection status pin. When the paired computer opens up a UART connection, the status pin goes high, letting the microcontroller know that it can now expect data to be sent and its also OK to send data to the computer. Each order of this EZ-Link + Extras pack includes one ready to go and assembled EZ-Link board, with FCC/CE/RoHS certification. We also include a 6-pin right angle female header and a stick of 6-pin extra-long male header. Chances are you will want to solder the female header in to the center of the board so you can use it like an FTDI-cable but we left you the option of wires, or other kind of header. We also toss in a JST connector. The JST connector can be soldered on the back (optional) to connect a Lipoly battery for portable projects. If the JST is used, the battery can also power the microcontroller that the EZ-Link is plugged into.     Shipping   ·          Processing in 1 business day. ·          This items ships by USPS First Class Mail. ·          US Shipment Only, (APO/AE Welcome) ·          Items are shipped from Lincoln, NE     Payment   ·          Only PayPal is accepted ·          Immediate Payment is required     Returns   ·          Unopened items may be returned. ·          Open or used electronic components cannot be returned. ·          Buyer pays all return shipping costs.     Feedback   We will strive to earn 5 stars on our transaction.  If you are not satisfied with our product or service please contact prior to leaving feedback.   Our goal is to resolve any issue as quickly as possible.  You may call us at (402) 404-6972 if you need any assistance.  Please leave a message if we don't answer.     Our Store   We stock many electronic components and kits.  Here is a short list of items we carry: Batteries, Battery Clips & Holders, Ceramic Capacitors, Electrolytic Capacitors, Connectors, Headers, Crystal Resonators, Diodes, Knobs, Motors, Integrated Circuits (IC), LED's, LCD Displays, Photocells & Photoresistors, Sensors, IR, Relays, Sockets, Switches, Transistors, Varistors, and many more items.
