NRF5340 official supported Bluetooth version

[tomislav_z]

Hi,

I have a question about official suported Bluetooth version on NRF5340, becase there's some conflicting informations....

On this link, it's written "Bluetooth 5.4 SoC":

www.nordicsemi.com/.../nRF5340

In the product brief, there's mention of Bluetooth 5.3:

https://www.nordicsemi.com/-/media/Software-and-other-downloads/Product-Briefs/nRF5340-SoC-PB.pdf

And in product specification here:
https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_nrf5340/page/keyfeatures_html5.html

it says "Bluetooth 5.2, IEEE 802.15.4-2006, 2.4 GHz enabled transceiver"


So, is the official, confirmed version 5.2, 5.3, or 5.4?

Hello,

The nRf5340 SoC officially supports Bluetooth 6.0 now.. From nRF Connect SDK 2.4.0, the nRF5340 SoC is capable of supporting Bluetooth 5.4 as seen in the compatibility matrix: https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/comp_matrix_nrf5340/page/COMP/nrf5340/nrf5340_ble_qdid_qual_matrix.html

Earlier version of the SDK's supports Bluetooth 5.3/5.2.. Although the hardware is capable of supporting Bluetooth 5.4 and now 6.0 in nRF Connect SDK v2.8.0 and later, it solely depends on which version of the SDK you are using..

Best Regards,

Swathy
