ISP1507 series
Bluetooth 5.0 Modules with Built-in Antenna

High Performance Multiprotocol Module Suitable for BLE / ANT+ / NFC with MCU and Antenna

This miniature BLE module by InsightSIP is one of our best selling devices, used in a diverse range of applications from wearables to industrial solutions.

8.0 x 8.0 x 1.0 mm

Module Description

The ISP1507 was our first device based on Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF52 third generation radio processors. It has a large memory capacity and powerful processor, allowing it to be deployed in wide range of applications. It can form the core of a complete application, or be connected to provide radio connectivity to a more complex system.

As it is one of our best selling devices, it will remain in production for many years to come; however for new designs, we would suggest the ISP2454 series devices using the latest generation of technology

Overview

Single mode Bluetooth 5 stack
ANT+ stack available
2.4GHz low energy RF transceiver from nRF52 Nordic Semiconductor family
32-bit ARM Cortex M4 CPU
Many analog and digital IOs including ADC, SPI, UART, PDM, I2C
Fully integrated RF matching and Antenna

Integrated Radio 32 MHz & Synchro 32kHZ crystal clocks

Module Variants

This miniature BLE module by InsightSIP is deployed to support sophisticate or baseline applications requiring Bluetooth 5 without Long Range connectivity. At 8 x 8 x 1 mm, ISP1507 series provide huge computing capability coupled with best-in-class battery life, with power consumption around 20-50% lower than previous generations of technology, making this Bluetooth Low Energy / BLE module a ready to use solution for most of IOT (Internet of Things) applications.

Fully qualified BLE stacks for nRF52 are implemented in the S112/S113/S132 SoftDevices which can be freely downloaded. ISP1507 can then be used in Central, Peripheral or both roles for BLE and for both ends of other proprietary protocols. nRF52 platform also provides extensive software support for ANT applications with S212 SoftDevices and dual ANT/BLE stack S332 SoftDevices.
