Bluetooth 5 module with ST32

Hello,

I'm designing a custom PCB with STM32L476RG. I need to add Bluetooth 5 connectivity. I'm looking for a BT module with the following requirements:

  1. Transmit at least 2Mbps
  2. As small as possible
  3. It would be great if it will come with code example
  4. I don't really care who is the manufacturer, as long as it is compatible with the above MCU, good quality and has a USB dongle receiver and PC app for testing and development.

Is there a recommended module?

Thanks in advance

Hi bro, few notes:

"Transmit at least 2Mbps" - 2M is a PHY layer speed so real data throughput is less (1-1.5 Mbps max). May be it is a good idea to use Wi-Fi for your application if more speed is needed

"As small as possible" - if dimensions are critical you can use SoC with MCU+BLE in 1 IC

"..compatible with the above MCU.." it's no problem, because every module supports UART, SPI

You can look at the SaBLE-x-R2, I worked with it, it's decent BLE5 module
