TechNERVE: Make Your own FREE Bluetooth Serial Module : PART 1

Hi Guys, as promised, this is an Instructional blog on how to make your own FREE Bluetooth 2.0 Module for your projects.

First of all You need one of the Modules :
Step 1 : Make a free Account on Ti.com (Use any Email ID, GMail works fine)
Step 2 : Make sure you are logged in and browse to www.ti.com/product/LMX9838/samplebuy
Step 3 : Click on the "Free Sample" icon and click "continue with free sample" icon.
Step 4 : Fill in the details and Click "Check out" link.
Step 5 : Follow the On-Screen instructions and you are done.

NOTE: Sometimes you will be asked about why you want to sample the IC, you have to explain about your project in brief.
NOTE : TI only allows approx 30$ of Free IC's per transition, and A maximum of ONE transition pre month. So If you are ordering the same IC twice in one month the former Order may be canceled, in which case you have to re order the sample next month.

So the shipping will take approx 3-4 Days after order conformation, mean while, if you already dont have the required components, you will need the following :

Now that we have everything with us, LETS BUILD :)
