3 Introduction
DA14580/581/583/585/586 is a Bluetooth Smart chip, working with extremely low power while
providing world-class RF performance, a small footprint and flexible peripheral configurations for a
wide range of applications. The development kit includes a set of hardware (e.g. development board
with on-board debugger), a Software Development Kit (SDK) (e.g. development tools, source code
examples documents and so on) along with documentation. This document helps users to set up
hardware/software development environment, install required software and quickly start product
development with the help of example source code.

3.3 Software Development Tools
3.3.1 SmartSnippets Studio Introduction
Figure 2: SmartSnippets Studio platform
Dialog SmartSnippets Studio™ is a royalty-free software development platform for Smartbond™
devices. It fully supports the DA1468x and DA1458x family of devices.
SmartSnippets Studio™ contains:
SmartSnippets™ Toolbox: A tool suite covering all software developer needs, including:
Power profiling
Programming and loading of firmware into SRAM, OTP and Flash
SmartSnippets™ IDE: Eclipse CDT based IDE pre-configured plugins allowing easy out of
the box set-up of build/debug environment
SmartSnippets™ DA1458x SDK
SmartSnippets™ Documentation
RF master is a tool supporting the Bluetooth SIG defined Direct Test Mode for RF PHY
testing of Bluetooth low energy devices. In addition it supports a number of vendor specific
HCI commands for device testing. User can access RF Master by selecting RF Master
under the Layout tab of the ribbon menu, which loads RF Master with Log. Alternatively, user
can select RF Master tool under Tools tab of the ribbon.
The SmartSnippets™ IDE is supported by an on-board debugger from SEGGER. This offers
standard debugging capabilities such as single stepping, setting breakpoints, software download and
many more. For more details on the debugger capabilities, visit https://www.segger.com/.
3.3.2 Installation
The description of the needed steps is presented:
Download the SmartSnippets tools from the Dialog Support Website:
https://support.dialog-semiconductor.com (registration required).
Unzip the zip.
Run SmartSnippets Studio installer (.msi).
oInstall the recommended version of SEGGER J-Link GDB server.
oSelect the destination folder for the SmartSnippets Studio.
Run the application.

3.3.3 Starting SmartSnippets Studio
When SmartSnippets Studio starts for the first time, the user must configure it. The necessary
configurations are the following:
Select the workspace folder for SmartSnippets. The dialog is shown in Figure 3. It is
suggested to choose the root directory of the SmartSnippets DA1458x SDK. If this is not
done correctly, then the message “you have not selected the latest SDK” will be shown. The
correct message should be: “You have not yet selected a SDK. Click the Browse button
above and select the SDK location”.
Figure 3: Dialog for Selecting Workspace
If necessary, specify how the selected workspace should be treated. (DA1468x 1.0.8 SDK or
DA1458x 5.0.4 SDK)
A set of tools required for all SDKs are getting automatically detected, such as GNU ARM
GCC, SmartSnippets Toolbox, etc. If required version of software cannot be found, they will
be downloaded and installed by the SDK Tools Installer (See Figure 4).
Figure 4: SDK tools installer
And now, the SmartSnippets Studio is ready for use.
Note, that Ozone and GNU tool chain are not needed for the DA1458x family.

3.6.3 DA14583 pin assignment
In Figure 11 the pin out of the DA14583 is shown. Different, compared to the DA14580/581, are the
connections to the internal SPI flash memory.

Note 1 shared with internal flash memory
When external SPI components are used, SPI_EN is occupied for internal use. Another pin should
be chosen for SPI_EN of the external component.
By using a Secondary Bootloader the proper pins are programmed to load the booting software from
the SPI-memory at startup.
See more info from UM-B-012 [10].

3.6.4 DA14585 pin assignment
Figure 12: DA14585 - QFN40 pin assignment
DA14585 - QFN40 pins assignment differentiation:
●DA14580/1/3: Pin 38, VDD is assigned instead of VPP. VDD is input and it is used for testing
purposes only. In normal operation this pin must left floating. Please notice that for DA14585
OTP programming, the 6.8V external voltage is not required.
●To DA14583/6: Pin 5, is assigned to P3_0 instead of VCC_ Flash for DA14583 and DA14586.
On DA14585, this is a general purpose IO pin.
