Introduction

These examples and demos are for TI SimpleLink CC2640R2 SDK 4.10.00.00

This repository contains Bluetooth® Low Energy sample applications for Texas Instruments' SimpleLink CC2640R2 SDK. These examples have not been validated as production-ready. Services and profiles in this repository have not been validated or certified.

Do not use GitHub's bug tracking feature for support. For inquiries, see the Bluetooth® low energy Forum.

To use the examples and tools in this repository, please download and install the SimpleLink CC2640R2 SDK first, and if necessary buy an evaluation kit.

If you have any questions please refer to the FAQ page.

For examples for other SDK versions and platforms, see table below.

Navigating the Repository

The examples provided on this GitHub page serve as a plugin to a corresponding BLE-Stack SDK release. The master branch will always point to the latest release.

Older releases can be accessed by checking out/downloading their corresponding branch. For more information on supported examples please consult the readme.md of the desired branch/release.

For for more information about different SDK components, please consult the BLE-stack User's Guide.

Change Log

Note: The version numbers below are related to GitHub ble_examples releases. The numbering scheme is in the form of M.mm.pp.bb. The fields pp.bb are incremented as GitHub examples are released, M.mm will map a GitHub release to a SimpleLink SDK release.
