Product details
Overview
STEVAL-IDB005V1 from STMicroelectronics is a Bluetooth® Low Energy 4.1 evaluation board built around the BlueNRG-MS network processor and STM32L microcontroller, delivering +8 dBm transmit power, –88 dBm receiver sensitivity, and dual-role (master/slave) operation for rapid BLE prototyping.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-IDB005V1 datasheet, STEVAL-IDB005V1 pinout, STEVAL-IDB005V1 application, or STEVAL-IDB005V1 equivalent, this board supports JTAG/SWD debugging, USB interface, SMA RF connector, integrated temperature sensor (STLM75), 3-axis accelerometer (LIS3DH), and five user LEDs - all critical for validating BLE firmware, sensor fusion, and low-power wireless system behavior.
Technical Context
The platform separates RF and MCU functions across daughterboard and motherboard: BlueNRG-MS handles BLE protocol stack offload via SPI, while STM32L executes host application logic, sensor data processing, and USB-to-BLE bridging. The BlueNRG-MS integrates a 2.4 GHz transceiver, embedded ARM Cortex-M0, and hardware AES encryption.
Power architecture includes dual supply paths (USB 5 V and AAA battery), LD39150 LDO regulating to 3.3 V, and configurable SMPS control pins (NO_SMP, SMPSFILT1/2) on BlueNRG-MS - enabling precise validation of ultra-low-power sleep modes (7.3 mA RX, 8.3 mA TX at 0 dBm).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| BLE Standard | Bluetooth 4.1 compliant, supporting simultaneous master and slave roles for mesh-ready topology testing. |
| Transmit Power | +8 dBm maximum output - enables extended-range beacon and sensor node validation in real-world RF environments. |
| Receiver Sensitivity | –88 dBm - ensures robust link budget for low-SNR industrial or building automation deployments. |
| Active Current Draw | 7.3 mA RX / 8.3 mA TX at 0 dBm - allows accurate battery life modeling for coin-cell-powered IoT endpoints. |
| Integrated Sensors | STLM75 (±2°C accuracy, I²C) and LIS3DH (±0.0625g resolution, SPI/I²C) - support out-of-box environmental and motion sensing use cases. |
| Debug & Interface | JTAG/SWD header (2×10), USB Mini-B (DP/DM), SMA RF port - provides full hardware visibility for protocol analysis and firmware bring-up. |

FAQ
Does STEVAL-IDB005V1 include production-ready firmware?
Yes - it ships with preloaded BlueNRG-MS firmware and STM32L host code, including BLE profiles (e.g., Battery Service, Device Information), sensor drivers (STLM75, LIS3DH), and PC GUI software for real-time parameter configuration and packet monitoring.
Can the BlueNRG-MS be reprogrammed independently of the STM32L?
Yes - the BlueNRG-MS supports standalone operation via its dedicated SPI interface and can be programmed directly using ST's BlueNRG SDK and Flash Loader Demonstrator tool, bypassing the STM32L for pure network processor validation.
What antenna options are supported beyond the SMA connector?
The board supports direct connection of PCB trace antennas or chip antennas via the RF0/RF1 differential RF pins on the BlueNRG-MS; the SMA port is intended for lab-grade measurement or external antenna testing, not mandatory for functional operation.
Is iOS and Android app support included out of the box?
Yes - the official "BlueNRG" app is published on both iTunes and Google Play, providing immediate smartphone-based BLE scanning, service discovery, characteristic read/write, and OTA firmware update capability without custom app development.
