5. Product Development Tools
5.1. Hardware
In order to assist clients in developing their solutions based on the ISP4520, Insight SIP offers an
Evaluation Board containing:
- One Interface Board with J-Link Seeger integrated SWD/JTAG interface
- One Test Board
- One Rx Gateway Board
- Cables
Using this evaluation board, product developers can use a working solution as starting point to develop
their own products. Time to market is saved by avoiding starting from a blank sheet of paper.

The S132 SoftDevice is a Bluetooth low energy Central and Peripheral protocol stack solution. It
supports up to twenty connections with an additional observer and a broadcaster role all running
concurrently. The S132 SoftDevice integrates a Bluetooth low energy Controller and Host and
provides a full and flexible API for building Bluetooth low energy ISP1507 solutions.
The S212 SoftDevice is an ANT protocol stack solution that provides a full and flexible Application
Programming Interface (API) for building ANT System on ISP1507 solutions. The S212 SoftDevice
simplifies combining the ANT protocol stack and an application on the same CPU.
The S332 SoftDevice is a combined ANT™ and Bluetooth low energy (BLE) protocol stack solution. It
supports all four Bluetooth low energy roles (Central, Peripheral, Observer, Broadcaster) and ANT.
ISP4520 supports LoRa protocol. Stack and examples for P2P and LoRaWan are available to download
