Cypress BLE Solutions are enabling long range IoT. Although Bluetooth has traditionally been viewed as a short-range technology, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is now being adopted in a wide array of industrial and commercial/consumer IoT applications like sensor nodes due to its low power consumption.
Several industrial/commercial applications are leveraging BLE for its ability to simply transmit data over a long range to a hub and/or a smartphone – without consuming large amounts of power. Cypress’ EZ-BLE™ PSoC® Extended Range/Extended Temperature module is an ideal fit for these industrial/lighting applications because of its long range (400m line-of-sight) and high temperature tolerance (-40°C to +105°C) capabilities.

- PSoC Creator – Fully Integrated Design Environment (IDE)
- EZ-BLE PSoC Modules come with an easy-to-use IDE, PSoC Creator, to configure, develop and program a Bluetooth Smart application. PSoC Creator also provides an option to use third party IDEs such as Keil MDK, IAR or Eclipse after the initial hardware design. Cypress also provides the CySmart test and debug tool, used to emulate a host device for peer testing. CySmart is available as a Windows application, iOS app and Android app

EZ-BLE™ PSoC® XT/XR Eval Board CYBLE-224110-EVAL
The CYBLE-224110-EVAL EZ-BLE PSoC XT/XR Evaluation Board enables you to evaluate and develop long range/extended temperature applications with the CYBLE-224110-00 EZ-BLE PSoC XT/XR Module.
The CYBLE-224110-EVAL board can be used with the Bluetooth Low Energy Pioneer Kit (CY8CKIT-042-BLE / CY8CKIT-042-BLE-A) and PSoC Creator to develop BLE applications. To enable easy prototyping the evaluation board routes the GPIOs of the on-board EZ-BLE PSoC XT/XR Module to the CapSense slider, RGB LED, switches, PSoC 5 LP and FRAM on the BLE Pioneer Baseboard.
The CYBLE-224110-EVAL board can also be programmed and debugged with the PSoC MiniProg3 Program and Debug Kit (CY8CKIT-002) and PSoC Creator.
