re: Why Wasn't There More Interest: Silicon Labs Bluetooth Design Kit

rscasny

This one puzzles me. I only received 19 applications for this roadtest: Silicon Labs Bluetooth Design Kit

 

I'm not sure why I received a low level of interest.

 

Any Idea why?

  • One reason I can think of is that the Bluetooth module is paired with the support board which is based on an 8051 processor.

    This isn't exactly mainstream.

    8051s were OK in their day and the Silabs ones are quite quick (for an 8051) but they not in the same league as modern ARM based parts like ST's STM32Gxx or STM32Lxx (or even SIlabs' ARM based parts.)
