Descriptions

• The Module IB725L has a notable merit in that its firmware supports concurrent Bluetooth SPP and GATT connections. It establishes a Bluetooth bidirectional communication channel which is between the application MCU and the mobile phone through the UART interface. The application MCU can send a corresponding command to enable the Bluetooth module and to set it into different modes, then to send and receive communication data at the SPP or GATT level. The MCU can also read the mode status of the module through serial commands.
• This module is designed with ITON@IN725L dual-mode Bluetooth 5.0 SoC. IB725L features 96 MHz 32-Bit ARM-core, excellent receiving sensitivity down to -92 dBm (BLE GFSK), and integrated PA to support Class 1 Tx power up to 8 dBm. These two RF parameters contribute to its best-in-class link budget to enable long Bluetooth communication distance around 100 meters or even farther.
• As a dual-mode Bluetooth module, it can realize both GATT and SPP connections concurrently, which provides the best interoperability for various iOS and Android mobile devices. It supports both BR (2 Mbps) and EDR (3 Mbps) when running SPP. This high Classic Bluetooth data rate provides high throughput, enabling applications that require higher through than what BLE can provide. Its raw data through running SPP can reach up to 1 Mbps.
• This module also supports Bluetooth audio profiles including but not limited to A2DP, HFP, and AVRCP.
• An external audio codec can be flexibly connected via PCM interface to drive a speaker and a microphone.
• This module can also support iAP2 and HomeKit for MFi-licensed developers.
• The module comes with a set of AT commands via the UART interface for setting up a bidirectional Bluetooth data link easily between an application MCU and mobile phones.

Application, Implementation, and Layout

Application

Typical Application Schematic Diagram

Layout Guideline

1. Keep RF traces with 50 Ohm impedance.
2. The antenna requires enough clearance area.
3. The filter capacitor should be as close as possible to the module.
4. Do not place strong interference lines under the module.

Mechanical and Package

Recommended PCB Footprint

Note:

1. The RF trace on the product board connecting to the RF pin needs to be controlled at 50 Ohm impedance. Normally an L/C matching network is needed in between.
2. The decoupling capacitor for VDD_3V3 input should be as close to the module as possible.
3. Strong interference line at the bottom of the module should be forbidden.
4. The whole Thickness is 2.8mm，2.17mm refers to the thickness of components height and pcb thickness

2. The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna,

Important Note:
In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

End Product Labeling

• The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following”
