The Laird Connectivity BT610 Sentrius I/O sensor is powered by the Laird Connectivity BL654 Bluetooth module, enabling the sensor to provide full Bluetooth 5.0 functionality, including LE Coded PHY. At the hardware level, the BT610 is compatible with virtually any industry-standard external sensor through a wide variety of interface options, such as general-purpose analog inputs, I²C, SPI, and UART digital inputs and outputs, or in combination with a sensor cable assembly. Numerous configuration options allow users to read sensor data and generate reports from that data, including in the cloud, and configure alarm events using the associated Android or iOS mobile app.
Users can utilize the Nordic nRF Connect software development kit or the Zephyr real-time operating system to develop custom applications and meet their own requirements, or use the ready-to-deploy application integrated into the BT610. The BT610 is fully certified by the FCC, ISED, UE, RCM, and MIC and is listed on the Bluetooth SIG. Featuring a rugged IP67-rated housing with a pressure vent, an internal high-gain antenna with an IPEX locking connector, and long-range Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity (LE Coded PHY), the BT610 is an ideal sensor for complex Internet of Things (IoT) environments where reliable wireless connectivity is essential to keep systems online and operational. Mouser also offers the Laird Connectivity IG60-BL654 + BT610 Sentrius IoT starter kit. These kits include a Sentrius IG60-BL654 wireless IoT gateway with global power supplies, three Sentrius BT610 I/O sensors, three thermistor cable assemblies, mobile apps for configuration, and Laird Connectivity's free AWS-based IoT monitoring assessment platform. Users can receive data from the BT610 sensors, collect the information with the IG60-BL654 gateway, and send it to the cloud using AWS IoT Greengrass.
