UART device

HC-05 Bluetooth

The HC-05 Bluetooth is a UART device in the LabWired part catalog. Its catalog type is hc-05. It connects to the MCU over UART. The catalog gives a supply range of 3.3–6 V. It has 6 pins. A registered peripheral model runs in the engine: the firmware talks to it over the real bus and gets device-accurate responses.

From the catalog: AT command shell only; no Bluetooth air link.

How to simulate the HC-05 Bluetooth in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the HC-05 Bluetooth (catalog type hc-05).
  3. Connect VCC and GND to the supply and ground of the board. Use a supply inside the catalog range of 3.3–6 V.
  4. Cross the UART lines: connect TX to the RX pin of the board, and RX to the TX pin of the board.
  5. Connect STATE and EN to free GPIO pins.
  6. Run the firmware. It sends and receives bytes on the simulated UART as on hardware.
