Instantly equip your Raspberry Pi Pico with wireless communication capabilities using the Pico-BLE Expansion Module. Featuring Bluetooth 5.1 dual-mode architecture, this compact board supports both BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and SPP (Serial Port Profile) modes. It interfaces seamlessly through standard UART AT commands, enabling hassle-free smartphone connectivity, sensor telemetry, and wireless remote control for C/C++ and MicroPython projects.

Key Features & Highlights:

  • Bluetooth 5.1 Dual-Mode: Supports both classic SPP (Serial Port Profile) for high-throughput data transfer and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) for low-power IoT applications.
  • Direct Pico Header Attachment: Engineered with custom female pin headers to stack cleanly onto any standard Raspberry Pi Pico board without breadboard mess.
  • UART AT Command Interface: Easy serial control using simple AT commands with selectable default baud rates (115200 bps default).
  • 30-Meter Range & Onboard Antenna: High-performance onboard PCB antenna achieves reliable open-air transmission distances up to 30 meters.
  • Onboard 3.3V Voltage Regulator: Integrated RT9193-33 regulator allows safe operation from flexible 3.3V to 5V power inputs.
  • Complete Code Examples: Comes with full development documentation and open-source code libraries for MicroPython and C/C++ (Raspberry Pi Pico SDK).
