How to understand SoftDevice version

[PMichael]

Dear Sirs

I try to read SoftDevice version using 

ble_version_t version;
sd_ble_version_get(&version);

As I understand I get version of SoftDevice in field subversion_number of struct.

But I do not understand, how to translate this version to SoftDevice version for example 3.0.0 or 7.0.0

Best regards

Michael

Hi, 

I guess you are using nRF5 SDK/S132. If so, you can check S132 SoftDevice:ble_version_t::subversion_number: 
Layer Sub Version number corresponds to the SoftDevice Config ID or Firmware ID (FWID).

You can find the Firmware ID in the release notes located under nRF5_SDK\components\softdevice\s132\doc

Unfortunately, today I use in my product SDK 12.2 and SoftDevice 3.0.0.

This product was developed 8 years ago.

I only consider upgrading. Because it I need solution that works from SDK 12.2

I need to be able to get version of SoftDevice from 3.0.0

There is nothing about it in SDK 12.2

Please advice

The SoftDevice firmware ID is stored inside the SoftDevice HEX file and is retrieved through the macro SD_FWID_GET. Also, see FWID in this post for s132_nrf52_3.0.0.
