I just broke Bluecore 04 external in Toshiba laptop. Bluetooth is integrated inside laptop, so i gues there is no way to repair it? Or is?

[...] had the time to take a closer look on this. Anyway for unbricking your dongles have a look at this post. I used the SPI interface and a Bluetooth Casira Development board to unbrick the dongle. [...]

Any idea how to hook up the csr SPI pins onto the parallel port? I have access in some bluelab software and a 5->3.3v ‘adaptor’ but I got no clue which pin goes where.

Is the CSR’s SPI protocol available ?
I need to implementy the firmware upgrate of the CSR module via SPI from my micro.
(DFU via UART/USB is not a choice because of other reasons)

TDM, this might depend on the hardware design, but i guess it could be enough to supply just the 3.3V. But this is just a guess. Try it out – if it does not work with 3.3V try it with only the 5V of USB.

If I turn the uart on (and use it), do I supply 3.3V to the pin on the side or do I supply 5V to the usb connector to power the dongle?

Thanks

Great!!

I’m a really newbie to this hardware world.
I’ve been looking for a device to connect an accelerometer sensor kit, which supply SPI or I2C data stream, to a SPI/I2C – (USB) – bluetooth device for my PC data acqusition.
I found several SPI/I2C -USB interface boards with rather bulky.
Since my final object is to send the data stream via bluetooth, your solution seems to me really perfect, meaning I don’t have to get the bulky and heavy SPI/I2C. I can settle for SPI only.
I really appreciate your wonderful suggestions.
