Technical Introduction and Usage Areas of Bluetooth Modules

Bluetooth technology is revolutionizing wireless communications, and Bluetooth modules such as the HC-05 and HC-06 provide access to a wider range of this technology. In this article, we will technically examine the HC-05 and HC-06 Bluetooth modules, provide examples of their usage areas and provide some basic information on how to use these modules.

HC-05 Bluetooth Module
HC-05 Bluetooth module is a low-cost, user-friendly and widely used Bluetooth module. Here are the technical specifications of HC-05:

Bluetooth Version: Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR (Enhanced Data Rate)
Working Voltage: 3.3V or 5V
Working Current: 30-40mA
Maximum Communication Range: Up to approximately 10 meters (Class 2)
Communication Speed: 1 Mbps
Data Transmission Modes: UART (Serial)
Operating Frequency: 2.4 GHz
Supported Profiles and Services: SPP (Serial Port Profile)
Areas of Use: Wireless serial communication, robotics, remote control, smart home systems.

HC-05 Bluetooth module Circuit
The HC-05 is especially popular for integration with microcontroller platforms such as Arduino. Thanks to the UART interface, serial communication can be easily established and can be used to transmit sensor data, control commands or any serial data.

HC-06 Bluetooth Module

The HC-06 Bluetooth module has similar specifications to the HC-05 and is generally used for the same applications. Here are the main technical specifications of the HC-06:

Bluetooth Version: Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR (Enhanced Data Rate)
Working Voltage: 3.3V or 5V
Working Current: About 40mA
Maximum Communication Range: Up to approximately 10 meters (Class 2)
Communication Speed: 1 Mbps
Data Transmission Modes: UART (Serial)
Operating Frequency: 2.4 GHz
Supported Profiles and Services: SPP (Serial Port Profile)
Areas of Use: Wireless serial communication, robotics, remote control, smart home systems.
HC-06 is frequently preferred in projects, especially with its low cost and simple use.
HC-06 works only in Slave mode.

Usage Areas and Examples
Smart Home Automation: HC-05 and HC-06 modules can be used to provide wireless communication of smart home systems with a central control unit. Ideal for remotely controlling lamps, sockets, curtains or other devices.

Robotic Projects: These modules can be used for wireless control of robots or data transmission. Robots can be controlled remotely or send sensor data wirelessly.

Remote Control Systems: TV remotes, toy remotes and other remote controls can be made more powerful and flexible by using Bluetooth modules.

Sensor Data Acquisition: HC-05 and HC-06 can be used to wirelessly transfer sensor data to mobile phones or computers. This is useful in weather monitoring, environmental data collection, and other similar applications.

Mobile Application Integration: Mobile applications can communicate with external devices using Bluetooth modules such as HC-05 and HC-06. For example, a mobile application can use these modules to control an Arduino-based project or retrieve data.
