 I am using the development kit nRF 52840DK running a firmware called pc-ble-driver . as USB-BLE dongle, together with the related python library. 
 I know that they have been deprecated. 
 
 I notice that the firmware running on this DK is the following</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 22 Jan 2025 12:37:02 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/118217/pc-ble-driver-for-nrf52840-dk" /><item><title>RE: pc-ble-driver for nRF52840 DK</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/519553?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jan 2025 12:37:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:45b33bd7-3cb9-4377-ab10-d921df89231c</guid><dc:creator>Riccardo Gaiati</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks so much Simonr for the reply and information.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: pc-ble-driver for nRF52840 DK</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/519499?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jan 2025 10:28:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:7e96336c-a039-470e-adde-00cf4127f1d7</guid><dc:creator>Simonr</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Riccardo&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The pc_ble_driver is deprecated, and no longer maintained, and we never added .hex files for the v7.x.x versions of the S140 for it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My recommendation would be to move to the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/"&gt;nRF Connect SDK&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/connectivity/bluetooth/bluetooth-shell.html"&gt;Zephyr Bluetooth Shell &lt;/a&gt;instead, as we can&amp;#39;t provide much support for the pc_ble_driver anymore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alternatively you can check out the BLE RPC sample here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/libraries/bluetooth/rpc.html"&gt;https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/libraries/bluetooth/rpc.html&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Simon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
