Hi,
We are developing a hardware and software solution for a locator tag using a minimalist approach. We want to use both, the Google Find Hub and Apple Find My Network. After seeing some other threads on this subject, we see mentioned that the main limitation of unsupported but BLE capable SoCs is memory footprint ( Apple and Google "Find My" technologies and supported modules ). We are wondering if we can achieve our goal using an NRF52805 anyway but as as a bluetooth controller ( HCI interface ) and run the actual locator tag application on an NRF9151 which has plenty of memory for that.
Are there any limitations for doing so that we might not be aware of and would make this approach unfeasible? If that's the case, we would like to understand why and what SoC would you recommend for us.
Thank you very much,
Marc
