Release Notes for FP-SEC-BLENFC1 Software for STM32, Expansion for STM32Cube

Copyright 2016 STMicroelectronics

 

This software provides one application that running on STM32 uses STM BlueNRG Bluetooth Low Energy protocol for comunicating with one device. It uses the NDEF protocol for writing the information for making a facility and Secure bluetooth pairing storing the BLE MAC address and the necessary PIN for allowing the connection on the NFC tag. For connecting to this board it possible to to use the BlueMS Android/iOS application (Version >2.0).

BLENFC1 software features:
    • Complete middleware to build applications using our dynamic NFC tag (M24SR), leveraging Bluetooth Low Energy for communication information
    • NDEF library for managing NDEF message format, as defined by the NFC Forum association
    • Easy portability across different MCU families thanks to STM32Cube
    • Free user-friendly license terms
