It is also compliant with EMC, Safety and Medical standards, and Bluetooth qualified, and has embedded Classic Bluetooth stack (SPP, DUN and PAN profiles), Bluetooth low energy stack with the company's Low Energy Serial Port Service, serial RS232/422/485 interface, and support for seven slaves connected at the same time.
