Description

The OES8800-211 BLE 5.3 Plug-in Board is a compact, surface-mountable wireless transceiver module engineered for seamless integration into IoT endpoints and smart metering systems. It leverages the Bluetooth 5.3 specification to provide enhanced low-energy performance, supporting data rates from 125 kbps to 2 Mbps to balance throughput and power efficiency for periodic telemetry data.

Built for industrial reliability, the module features a wide supply voltage tolerance compatible with single-cell Li-ion batteries or regulated DC supplies, and its extended operating temperature range ensures stable performance in outdoor or thermally challenging installations. The integrated antenna simplifies design-in, while three configurable GPIO pins offer flexibility for interfacing with sensors, LEDs, or control signals, making it a versatile core for building wireless sensor nodes and automated meter reading (AMR) devices.

Key Features

  • BLE 5.3 compliant transceiver with 2.4 GHz operation and 40 channels.
  • Integrated on-board chip antenna for simplified RF design and reduced BOM.
  • Over-the-air (OTA) upgrade capability for remote firmware deployment and feature updates.
  • Configurable data rates from 125 kbps (for maximum range) up to 2 Mbps (for higher throughput).
  • High transmit power up to 8 dBm coupled with excellent receiver sensitivity (-102 dBm @ 125 kbps) for robust communication links.
  • Wide supply voltage range from 1.7V to 3.8V, ideal for direct battery-powered operation.
  • Industrial-grade operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C for harsh environment suitability.
  • Three user-configurable GPIO pins for peripheral control and system integration.

Applications

  • Smart energy meters and automatic meter reading (AMR/AMI) systems.
  • Solar inverter monitoring and solar pump control networks.
  • Wireless sensor networks for industrial telemetry and building management.
  • Alarm, security, and asset tracking systems.
  • General-purpose IoT endpoints for battery-operated sensor nodes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I interface with and program the OES8800-211 BLE module?

The OES8800-211 module is typically configured via AT commands sent over a UART interface. You need to connect the module's TX, RX, VCC, and GND pins to a host microcontroller or USB-to-serial adapter. Establish communication at a standard baud rate (e.g., 115200) and use the manufacturer's AT command set to configure BLE parameters, advertise data, or establish connections. For firmware updates, utilize the built-in OTA functionality through a compatible mobile app or gateway following the specific OTA protocol provided.

What is the typical power consumption and sleep current of this BLE module?

While exact sleep current figures are not provided in the datasheet excerpt, BLE 5.3 modules like this are designed for ultra-low power operation. Power consumption is highly dependent on the configured advertising/connection interval and transmit power. For battery-operated designs, you should implement deep sleep modes between transmission events. The wide 1.7V to 3.8V supply range indicates compatibility with efficient DC-DC converters and direct battery connection, allowing for optimized power management in your application firmware.

Can I use an external antenna with the OES8800-211, and how do I configure the GPIO pins?

No, the OES8800-211 model comes with a fixed, integrated on-board chip antenna and does not have an external antenna connector (like IPEX or SMA). The three configurable GPIO pins are accessible via the board's castellated edge pads. Their function (input, output, PWM, etc.) is set through specific AT commands or by the module's internal firmware. You must refer to the official technical reference manual for the exact pin mapping, electrical characteristics, and the command syntax to configure them for driving LEDs, reading sensors, or controlling external switches.
