Nordic genuine chips

[franck]

Hi,

I've just discovered that there are counterfeit copy of nrf24l01 Are there also copies of nRF24LE1, NRF24LU1 or NRF51822 ? Is there a guide to recognize genuine Nordic chips ?

Thanks, Franck

To my knowledge there hasn't been other counterfeits than nRF24L01(+). There is no guide, but as long as you buy from listed distributors you should be safe. If you have any suspicion you should contact Nordic technical support.

Yes you're right, for chip only listed is distributor is fine But the problem is that I'm thinking using modules and I want that the components embedded are working correctly.

As I will use for production solutions based on NRF51822 + nRF24LE1 or nRF24LU1 + nRF24LE1 then I will not have to be carefull with this problem

Thanks
