  • Integrating Memfault with Blecon Bluetooth Devices

    In this post, I’ll go through how we evaluated Memfault at Blecon and talk through what we liked and why we decided to use it, how we integrated it into the nRF5 platform and carried the Memfault data over to the Memfault cloud via Bluetooth.

  • A Practical Guide to BLE Throughput

    In this article, we dive into the factors which influence BLE throughput. We will walk through the BLE protocol stack from version 4.0 to 5.1. We will discuss how to audit what is limiting throughput in a BLE connection and parameters which can be tuned to improve it. Finally, we will walk through a couple practical examples where we evaluate and optimize the throughput of a connection.

  • Bluetooth Low Energy: A Primer

    In today’s post, we will be covering one of the most popular low-power IoT technologies: Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). We will give an overview of how BLE works, dig into each protocol layer, and walk you through an example setting up BLE on a Nordic nRF52 microcontroller.
