RE: Migrating sdk5 ANT Broadcast TX Example from nRF52832 to nRF52840

Kenneth — Mon, 05 Aug 2024 08:46:56 GMT

If you search in the example folder for S340 you can find some examples are setup to use S340:

Also from the release notes of the nRF5 SDK:

The following toolchains/devices have been used for testing and verification:
 
 - ARM: MDK-ARM version 5.25   
 - GCC: GCC ARM Embedded 9.2020-q2.major
 - IAR: IAR Workbench 7.80.4
 - SES: SES 5.42a

I plan to use ant only, however this is good to know. I do not believe that I am including ble libraries in my code.

I do not see any S340 ant examples in the sdk.

Do you have any other suggestions to try to get it to flash? Does my linker file look correct for the 52840?

Thank you for your help!

Hello again,

I was not aware of that, likely that table is the more correct one then in this case yes, but from your description I get the sense you want both ANT and BLE functionaliy, so be aware that S212 is only for ANT.

Hi, thank you for your quick reply. I will give that a try, but from my understanding the latest release of the ant 212 softdevice should work with the nrf52840.

	S212	S312	S313	S332	S340
nRF52805	X	X
nRF52810	X	X	X
nRF52811	X	X	X
nRF52820	X	X			X
nRF52832	X	X	X	X
nRF52833	X		X		X
nRF52840	X		X		X

Hello,

If you search in examples\ant or examples\multiprotocol you should find some example project for s340. The easiest may be just to use one of those as start project, and copy the main.c you already have into one of those (and include paths and source files you may have included). Normally it should only be (as you indicate) update flash, ram and path to the softdevice header files. (The S212 is not intended to be used with the nRF52840, here are the softdevices that can be used with the nRF52840: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/comp_matrix_nrf52840/COMP/nrf52840/nRF52840_ic_rev_sdk_sd_comp_matrix.html)
