Running nRF5_IoT_SDK_v0.9.x on the PCA10036 board

Hi, I have PCA10036 board v1.0.0 and I would like to run sample projects from nRF5_IoT_SDK_v0.9.x that are by default designed for PCA10040. Do I need to make any changes in these projects to be able to use them with PCA10036 board?

  • The IoT SDK uses a special version of the SoftDevice, which for IoT SDK 0.9.0 is only tested for the chip revision used on the pca10040 (nRF52832-QFAA BA). This means it may or may not work for PCA10036 (nRF52832-QFAA AA). Previously I was under the impression that it should work, but based on the feedback in this thread it may require some effort to make the IoT SDK work, if at all possible.

    The IoT SDK was ported from nRF51 to nRF52 at a point in time where pca10040 was the newest nRF52 preview DK, and older preview DKs has not been targeted. Previous versions of the SDK were made for nRF51.
