Hi, I'm experiencing a significant performance drop when switching from the nRF9160 to the nRF9151DK.
I have a firmware that sends around 300 kBytes of data over UART in about 20 seconds using data mode with the Serial LTE Modem (SLM) on the nRF9160. However, running the same firmware (with minor adjustments) on the nRF9151DK, the same 300 kBytes take about 2 minutes to transmit.
Data is being sent over UART in SLM data mode (i.e., after AT+CFUN=1, AT+CMEE=1, AT+KTCPCNX, etc.). I'm using UART2 with HW Async mode enabled (CONFIG_UART_2_NRF_HW_ASYNC=y) and a baudrate of 921600.
I would like to ask:
-
Are there any known differences between the nRF9160 and nRF9151 that could explain this performance drop?
-
Are there specific UART, modem, or clock configurations required for the nRF9151 to achieve similar throughput?
-
Does using
HW AsyncwithTIMER2on the nRF9151 require special considerations?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
