nrf52832 and Arduino

Hi, I'm planning to add bluetooth LE support to my Arduino based project. I want to use nrf52832, but I couldn't find any example on Arduino interaction with this radio. I know that nrf8001 has an SDK for Arduino, but I wanted to use all the new cool features of nrf52832 (e.g. NFC pairing). Is programming nrf52832 with Arduino more difficult than programming the nrf8001? I'm a beginner with BLE, should I stick to nrf8001? Can anyone point me to an example? Thanks

  • I don't know about nRF52, but on nRF51 you could use serialization library to communicate with nrf51's bluetooth. Anyway, using Arduino (atmega328p?) as host for nRF51 is not really good approach. nRF51 is much more powerful than arduino. nRF52 is much more powerful than nRF51. Interfacing it with arduino as a slave would be... weird. nRF8001 would be better- i think there are some arduino-compatible libraries to use it. Or just try porting your app to nRF52? It is not that hard as it looks like...
