A
Central Mode BLE Module Featuring smartBASIC
BL620 Series Datasheet
Note: For complete hardware integration information, refer to the BL600 Datasheet.
The BL620 uses hardware identical to the BL600.
The BL620 module is designed to enable OEMs to add single-mode Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to small, portable, power-
conscious devices. The BL620 is enabled with Laird’s smartBASIC, an event-driven programming language that enables
OEMs to make their BLE product development quicker and simpler, significantly reducing time to market. smartBASIC
enables customers to develop a complete embedded application inside the compact BL620 hardware, connecting to a
wide array of external sensors via its I2C, SPI, UART, ADC or GPIO interfaces.
This document should be read in conjunction with the smartBASIC Core and Extensions user guides.
IMPORTANT!
THE BL620 USES THE IDENTICAL HARDWARE AS THE BL600 but it has a new firmware that supports Central mode connectivity.
For more detailed BL620 hardware and functionality information, refer to one of the following BL600 hardware documents
available from the BL600 or BL620 product pages’ Documentation tab.
 BL600 Datasheet (Hardware Integration Guide) - Version 2.1 and later
 User Guide - BL600-DVK (Board Revision 4 or Below) - Version 2.4 and later
 User Guide - BL600-DVK (Board Revision 5) - Version 1.0 and later

Note: The BL620 module supports a JTAG upgrade but has no capability to upgrade via UART currently.
BL620 REGULATORY INFORMATION
Because it uses the same hardware as the BL600 series, all regulatory certifications for the BL620 (including FCC, IC, and
CE) fall under the BL600’s certifications. The only exception to this is the BL620-US.
