How do I access softdevice version string

[Anthony Ambuehl]

According the BLE specification, the software and firmware revision strings are mandatory. I would like to set put information about the softdevice version in the firmware revision string.

Is there a way I can access version info from the softdevice?

I'm using SoftDevice s132 nrf52 v3.0.0. Can you tell me what the softdevice firmware ID for this SoftDevice will be? I'm currently getting 0x8C.

Is there a document that lists all the current SoftDevice Firmware IDs that I can look at?

IMO there is no official documentation with all available FWID. I started to make a list for some of them but I think the most updated list is the accepted answer above.

Brian,

0x008C is the correct ID for S132 V3.0.0, if you move to S132 V3.1.0 then the ID is 0x91. I'm not sure why Nordic doesn't add a string representation for this.

0x00A6 - S112 v5.1 is missing, and v6.1 is out - sdk 15.2 (have no idea what is the fwid).

Worth updating as this is the one single existing concentrate source for this mapping.

Hi,

Thanks for the reminder.

About a year ago we started printing the FWID in the SoftDevice release notes. In SDK 15 you will find those in <sdk folder>/components/softdevice/<sxxx>/doc/, where <sxxx> is the particular SoftDevice (e.g. s132, s140, etc.)

I guess this overview is still useful also for new releases, so I will try to keep it updated.
