e.g. I want to interface the Nordic chip with an open source host stack such as Bluez or Blue kitchen</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 09 Mar 2018 14:03:00 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/11385/using-nrf51822-as-a-controller-to-external-host" /><item><title>RE: Using nRF51822 as a Controller to external host</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/123704?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 09 Mar 2018 14:03:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:33768b8b-386d-454e-a2a2-23d27f1e0ab9</guid><dc:creator>Hung Bui</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;@Jackxl: I guess the question was about HCI interface to do Bluetooth, not the bootloader.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
