On Arduino boards, connect to the hardware UART pins (RX0\/TX0) or use SoftwareSerial on any digital pins. Configure your Arduino sketch to initialize serial communication at the module's default baud rate of 9600 bps, then send AT commands to configure the device name and PIN if needed. For example, sending AT+NAME=MyDevice will rename the Bluetooth device, and AT+PSWD=1234 will set the pairing PIN. Once configured, the module automatically enters transparent mode where any data sent via serial UART is transmitted wirelessly to the paired Bluetooth device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo establish a wireless connection, pair the module with your smartphone or another Bluetooth device using its standard Bluetooth settings menu. After successful pairing, open a Bluetooth serial terminal application on your mobile device and select the module from the available devices. Data transmitted from your microcontroller's UART will appear in the terminal, and any text entered in the terminal will be received by your microcontroller as serial data. This transparent serial bridge approach allows you to use existing UART-based code without modifications, making integration straightforward for developers familiar with serial communication protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the difference between HC-05 and HC-06 modules, and why use this v3.0 version?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HC-05 used in this module operates as both master and slave, allowing it to initiate connections to other Bluetooth devices or accept incoming connections. The HC-06 operates only as a slave. The v3.0 designation indicates Bluetooth 2.1 EDR compliance with improved power efficiency and faster connection establishment compared to earlier versions. For most projects requiring flexible connectivity options, the HC-05 master-slave capability makes this module more versatile than HC-06 alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this module with 5V microcontrollers like Arduino Uno?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, but with important caveats. The module operates at 3.3V logic levels, so the RX pin must be protected with a voltage divider or level shifter to prevent damage from 5V signals. The TX output at 3.3V is generally safe for 5V microcontroller inputs due to their higher input thresholds. We recommend using a simple resistor divider on RX (10k and 20k resistors) or a dedicated logic level converter IC for reliable operation and maximum module lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I change the baud rate from the default 9600 bps?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend the AT command AT+UART=115200,0,0 to configure the module to 115200 bps. The format is AT+UART=baud,stopbits,parity. Common baud rates are 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 bps. After sending the command, you must reconfigure your microcontroller's UART to match the new baud rate. The module will remember the setting after power cycling, so you only need to configure it once during initial setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the maximum wireless range of this Bluetooth module?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe theoretical maximum range is 100 meters in open space with clear line of sight and minimal RF interference. In typical indoor environments with walls and obstacles, expect practical range of 10-30 meters depending on building materials and competing wireless devices. Range decreases significantly in environments with high RF interference from WiFi routers, microwave ovens, and other 2.4 GHz devices. For applications requiring extended range, consider external antenna modules or mesh networking approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhen will I receive my order?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are dispatched within 1-5 business days from our Bengaluru warehouse.
