FAQ
What is the DA14581DEVKT-B used for?
The DA14581DEVKT-B is a development kit for the DA14581 Bluetooth Smart SoC. It enables engineers to develop, debug, and validate BLE applications using Dialog's SmartSnippets™ software. The DA14581DEVKT-B includes on-board debugging, USB power, and full I/O access - making it ideal for prototyping A4WP wireless charging controllers and HCI-compliant BLE peripherals.
Does the DA14581DEVKT-B require external programming hardware?
No, the DA14581DEVKT-B does not require external programming hardware. It features an integrated JTAG/SWD debugger that connects directly to a host PC via USB. This allows full programming, real-time debugging, and firmware updates of the DA14581 SoC without additional tools - a key capability of the DA14581DEVKT-B.
Which software environment supports the DA14581DEVKT-B?
The DA14581DEVKT-B is supported exclusively by Dialog's SmartSnippets™ software suite, which includes a BLE stack, IDE, flash programmer, and packet sniffer. SmartSnippets™ provides full visibility into radio behavior and stack operation - essential for optimizing the DA14581DEVKT-B in low-power sensor and beacon applications.
Can the DA14581DEVKT-B be used for A4WP development?
Yes, the DA14581DEVKT-B is explicitly validated for A4WP (Alliance for Wireless Power) development. Its hardware and firmware configuration support A4WP controller functionality, and Dialog's reference designs leverage the DA14581DEVKT-B to implement compliant wireless power negotiation - confirming its role as a primary A4WP evaluation platform.
What interfaces are exposed on the DA14581DEVKT-B expansion headers?
The DA14581DEVKT-B exposes all DA14581 GPIOs across two 2×20-pin headers, including dedicated pins for UART, SPI, I²C, ADC input, PWM output, and wake-up interrupts. These interfaces allow direct connection to sensors, displays, and other peripherals - enabling comprehensive system-level testing of the DA14581DEVKT-B in real-world embedded environments.
