Much like its more well-known brother, the HC-05, the HC-06 is a transparent TX/RX pipeline Bluetooth module that allows devices to communicate via a serial connection with all of the Bluetooth specific handling taken care of by the module's software stack.

The HC-06 module itself is mounted onto a breakout board which provides easy, breadboard-friendly 0.1" headers for Power, Ground, TX, RX, and enable pins. This breakout board unfortunately no longer provides on-board logic level conversions. To keep your board safe we recommend adding a separate logic level converter such as ours linked here to ensure that you don't run into any issues with voltage spikes. You are able to power it from an Arduino's 5V pin or a microcontrollers regulated 5V supply

Getting started with the HC-06 is as easy as connecting it up to your microcontroller, configuring it using simple AT commands, and then pairing it with other Bluetooth devices.

Some HC-06's come with an onboard button that is connected to pin34 of the HC-06 module to enter into AT command mode, whereas others have a pin broken out to the header. We've covered using both versions of the board in our Bluetooth tutorials below.

**Note that the HC-06 can only be configured as a Peripheral device. If you need a module that can be used as either Controller or Peripheral, take a look at the HC-05**

Check out our guide on the more well-known HC05 for getting that one up and running!

Specs:

  • Logic Level: 3.3V
  • Power input: 3.6V - 6V
