4.1.2 Peripheral

Bluetooth® LE Peripheral devices send advertisement packets and accept connection requests from another central device (see Central from Related Links). Connected Bluetooth LE devices, enable bi-directional data transfer using the profiles and services. There are certain use cases where a connection between the devices (Peripheral & Central) is not essential and advertisement feature (transmit only, no receive) is sufficient.

SDK Setup

  • Getting Started with Software Development (see Getting Started with Software Development from Related Links).
    Note: SDK Setup is a mandatory step before users start developing application examples based of Building Blocks.
    Tip: New users of MCC are recommended to go through the overview.
