I had to flash new firmware onto my BLE PMOD when I developed this blog: (1) Azure Sphere BLE Sensor Monitoring using Laird BT510 devices - element14 Community , however I conveniently glossed over the BLE flashing step. Hope this helps, Brianhttps://community.element14.com/products/devtools/avnetboardscommunity/azure-sphere-starter-kits/f/forum/53581/ble-mod/213759Wed, 30 Aug 2023 06:54:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:ff77a621-4935-4ba9-a1a3-8e482d65fc7fehubelsThat is really helpfull, thank you, really appreciate.

The PCB files are at that link, and Farnell has the Cypress chip in-stock. There may be ready-made USB UART boards with that chip, but I don't know if they expose the pins, whereas that DIY board does. I use that board regularly, although I don't often need the additional flow control pins, and it has been reliable. I don't know what voltage you need, but that board supports 5V and 3.3V, and 1.8V is possible too, although the 1.8V option needs a wire link patched on the board. However, perhaps you can use SWD (i.e. using any J-Link programmer, or alternatively use the Laird development kit for that BLE module, which contains an on-board J-Link). I've not used these Laird devices, but I think that SWD may work.https://community.element14.com/products/devtools/avnetboardscommunity/azure-sphere-starter-kits/f/forum/53581/ble-mod/213752Tue, 29 Aug 2023 21:17:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:e817b5da-9fea-4b4a-8387-1b80b7a5c617baldengineerRTD or DTR?

I need to programm the BLE MOD, the Laird documentation tell me I need at least RTS, TXD, RXD, CTS, and RTD exposed. I don't see a USB/TTL programmer that actually exposes all of those, any suggestions?

I am trying to create a program for GPIO interrupt. Seems the High-level application code will not support IRQ. So I created a Real-time applicable application. When I try to run the HelloWorld example code( https://github.com/Azure/azure-sphere-samples/tree/main/Samples/HelloWorld/HelloWorld_RTApp_MT3620_BareMetal), I got an error saying "libusb_open() failed with LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND". Is this error because I didn't connect an usb-to-serial adaptor or I don't install the software LIBUSB? Is it possible debug the real-time applicable application code without the usb-to-serial adaptor? Thanks.azure spherehttps://community.element14.com/products/devtools/avnetboardscommunity/azure-sphere-starter-kits/f/forum/52509/azure-sphere---how-to-read-and-write-16-bit-register-using-i2c/206416Mon, 27 Feb 2023 15:34:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:0edd5bfe-d4e2-4666-9696-945963e8f726bwillessshabaz is correct, you need to look at the device datasheet to understand what to send to your device. What device are you using? Have you looked at any of the i2c examples that are available? Once you understand what the device requires, you create the message in your code and send it to the device. Simple example by MSFT: azure-sphere-samples/Samples/I2C at main · Azure/azure-sphere-samples (github.com) . Look at the ResetAndSetSampleRange() function in main.c line 251 for a working example. Note that a i2c command gets created in a uint8_t array, and the command gets sent to the device.https://community.element14.com/products/devtools/avnetboardscommunity/azure-sphere-starter-kits/f/forum/52509/azure-sphere---how-to-read-and-write-16-bit-register-using-i2c/206291Fri, 24 Feb 2023 22:36:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:08e10e19-7183-4902-b98e-782f4d4db2d5shabazHi, I2C low-level protocol doesn't have a concept of 16-bit registers. If you're new to the field, you really do need to read the I2C specification, it is not very long, or at least the I2C Wikipedia page. That's a good start, because it would have shown you that there are no 16-bit register procedures in the I2C spec itself. You need to check the datasheet of the device you're trying to communicate to , in order to see what data bytes (yes, 8-bit data bytes) you can send to the device in order for the device to interpret it as a 16-bit register address, if that is what the device needs. Then, you need to look at the Azure Sphere API and select the best API call to achieve that. Bear in mind, that you don't have 100% flexibility, and not all I2C devices are supported by the API (or at least, that was the case in the past). The API works with many devices, but some devices require certain I2C sequences, that the API might not support. You can check the documentation to pick the appropriate API call after you've determined your requirement (from the device datasheet as mentioned).https://community.element14.com/products/devtools/avnetboardscommunity/azure-sphere-starter-kits/f/forum/52509/azure-sphere---how-to-read-and-write-16-bit-register-using-i2cFri, 24 Feb 2023 21:19:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:feea34b9-923a-4cd4-8f3e-86d576cbd306FrankSteven8877I am new to this field.
