Blend is an integrated developement board, we have "blend"ed Arduino with Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy (aka BLE or Bluetooth Smart) into a single board. It is targeted for makers to develop low power Internet-Of-Things (IoT) projects quickly and easily.

Blend is 100% compatible with sketches and Shields that work with Arduino Leonardo. The micro-controller unit (MCU) is Atmel ATmega32U4 and the BLE chip is Nordic nRF8001. Blend runs as BLE peripheral role only, it allows BLE central role devices to establish connection with.

Features:
Utilize Nordic Bluetooth Smart SDK for Arduino
Software development using Arduino IDE
Support 5V and 3.3V operating voltage
Selectable REQN and RDYN pins, from pin 0 to 3, 6 to 11
Flexible RF RESET pin, pin 4 or 5
