Using Softdevice S332 (ANT+ & BLE) on an nRF 52832 is making me headache

HI,

I am super confused about which direction to go forward...

I need example code and tool chain where I can build a

1) ble bootloader that supports the Nordic Semi DFU app (using S332)

2) being able to develop an app that both can send ANT+ packets and also bluetooth peripharal with S332 as softdevice

What is the way to go forward in your opinion?

nRF Connect 2.9? This makes me even more confused and I can only get the "hello world" and "bluetooth" quick examples to work.

I cant seem to be able to build examples from the SDK in VS Code with alle the extensions

  • Hi,

    Assuming you already have a project with the nRF5 SDK.

    1) ble bootloader that supports the Nordic Semi DFU app (using S332)

    The nRF Connect SDK does not support DFU in the bootloader. In the nRF Connect SDK, the application has to do DFU.
    If you want to use BLE directly from the bootloader, I suggest you stay with the nRF5 SDK.

    2) being able to develop an app that both can send ANT+ packets and also bluetooth peripharal with S332 as softdevice

    The nRF Connect SDK no longer uses softdevices in the same manner as the nRF5 SDK. See the nRF Connect SDK and nRF5 SDK statement for more info.

    I cant seem to be able to build examples from the SDK in VS Code with alle the extensions

    Nordic Developer Academy as an excellent place to start learning the nRF Connect SDK.
