https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/12842/wifi-with-nrf51Hi We are thinking of using NRF51 for BLE and CPU capabilities. But we also need a Wifi add-on to connect to cloud. What is the right chipset for this? Which ones are tested and practical for usage in production in volume? Are there right librariesen-USTelligent Community 13Tue, 29 Mar 2016 11:44:46 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/48845?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Mar 2016 11:44:46 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8b74e6f1-994c-4194-962d-dfa59e8ade84bjorn-spockeli<p>As both @wtbn (Wojtek) and @anders-strand has pointed out, this question should be posted on the TI and ESP forums as this site is for Nordic Products only.</p> <p>However, the nRF51 has a lot of serial interfaces (I2C, UART and SPI) that could be used to interface with the ESP8266 and the TI CS3100, but there are no examples\libraries for this in our SDK.</p> <p>You might be better off choosing a chip/module with both Bluetooth and WiFi, like the Intel-Edison.</p> <p>Best regards</p> <p>Bjørn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/48844?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Mar 2016 10:51:37 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:1f6e7115-8231-4d14-bbe7-924e85842b29Anders Strand<p>Raspberry pi 3 has both BLE and wifi :) But yeah, i would try other forums like Wojtek said.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/48843?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Mar 2016 10:28:44 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:45245579-07bb-4207-a44a-0980bb04d8aaWojtek<p>I think you should ask that question on ESP or TI or Intel forum... why do you expect nordics to have libraries to these devices? :? As far as i know there are some IoT examples based on connection with raspberry pi... but that is not exactly what you want to achieve i think. Also, Intel Edison has in-built BLE. Also... nRF51 as CPU capabilities and Intel Edison as WiFi only? xD</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
