It is compatible with the Arduino UNO R3 connector layout, and is designed around BlueNRG, a Bluetooth low energy, low power network coprocessor compliant with BTLE 4.0 and the BALF‐NRG‐01D3, an ultra‐miniature balun optimized for ST BlueNRG RFIC, which integrates matching network and harmonics filter. The X‐NUCLEO‐IDB04A1 interfaces with the STM32 MCU via SPI pin, and the user can change the default SPI clock, the SPI chip select and SPI IRQ by changing one resistor on the evaluation board. The excellent performance of BlueNRG and the best matching between BlueNRG and BALF‐NRG, X‐NUCLEO‐IDB04A1 passed the RF TEST for Japan Radio Law certification with higher margin above the specification values as well as it is FCC certified (FCC ID: S9NIDB04A1). Key features: BlueNRG low power, low energy Bluetooth network coprocessor BALF‐NRG‐01D3 balun & harmonic filter Free comprehensive development firmware library and example for BlueNRG, compatible with STM32Cube firmware Bluetooth low energy 4.0 master and slave compliant Compatible with STM32 Nucleo boards Equipped with Arduino UNO R3 connector Very low power consumption: 7.3 mA RX and 8.3 mA TX at +0 dBm Maximum transmission power: +8 dBm Excellent receiver sensitivity (‐88 dBm) X‐NUCLEO‐IDB04A1 is officially certificated as a BTLE 5mW module for Japan Radio Law “TYPE” Certification by Japan government. X‐NUCLEO‐IDB04A1 is FCC certified (FCC ID: S9NIDB04A1) RoHS compliant Figure 1 - Functional Block Diagram This section describes the hardware requirements for the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 evaluation board. UM1765 1.1 Getting started Hardware requirements The X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 is an expansion board for use with STM32 Nucleo boards (please refer to UM1724 on www.st.com for further information). To function correctly, the STM32 Nucleo board must be connected to the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 board as shown in Figure 2 below. Figure 2. X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 plugged to STM32 Nucleo board The interconnection between the STM32 Nucleo and the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 has been designed to permit the use of any STM32 Nucleo board, although the optimal combination is obtained using the NUCLEO-L152RE or NUCLEO-L053R8 hosting the ultra-low power STM32. DocID026346 Rev 4 3/15 Getting started 1.2 UM1765 System requirements Using the Nucleo boards with the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 expansion board requires the following software and hardware: a Windows PC (XP, Vista, 7, 8) to install the software package a USB type A to Mini-B USB cable to connect the Nucleo to the PC Installation of the board firmware package (order code: X-CUBE-BLE1) and the BlueNRG graphical user interface utility on the user’s PC requires the following: At least 128 MB of RAM 40 MB of hard disk space available The X-CUBE-BLE1 firmware and related documentation is available on www.st.com. 4/15 DocID026346 Rev 4 UM1765 Hardware description Hardware description This section describes the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 features and provides information which could be useful for understanding the board schematics. 2.1 X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 board The board allows the user to test the functionality of the BlueNRG processor. It hosts the innovative BALF-NRG-01D3 balun & harmonic filter and its functionality can be exploited using the firmware package contained in the X-CUBE-BLE1. It is fundamental to program the microcontroller on the STM32 Nucleo board. Please refer to user manuals UM1724 and UM1725, available on www.st.com. The BlueNRG processor and the STM32 Nucleo board are connected through connectors CN5, CN6, CN8 and CN9 (see Table 1 for details). The pins indicated with an asterisk (*) represent an alternative pin for that specific function, i.e. SPI_IRQ could be moved from CN8.1 to CN5.2.

DocID026346 Rev 4 5/15 Hardware description UM1765 The board also includes: – a high frequency 16 MHz crystal – a low frequency 32 kHz crystal for lowest power consumption – a BALF-NRG-01D3 balun & harmonic filter – an EEPROM M95640-RMN6P to store the board parameters Not mounted: – a JTAG connector to program the BlueNRG processor – an SMA connector for the external antenna 2.1.1 Current measurements To monitor the power consumption of entire BlueNRG X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 board, jumper U5 can be used, inserting an ammeter probe between pins 1 and 2 of the connector. Since the power consumption of BlueNRG during most of its operating time is very low, an accurate instrument in the range of few uA may be required. 6/15 DocID026346 Rev 4 UM1765 Formal Notices Required by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) Formal Notices Required by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) Any changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by STMicroelectronics may cause harmful interference and void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
