nRF52832 development tools

What development kit should I buy? Is this the right one? www.mouser.hk/.../

What software IDE to use?

  1. Does Keil offer free version for limited code size? What is the size limit?

  2. Which tools is free and un-limited code size?

  3. How is mbed? I have used mbed for simple test with STM32 Nucleo. Is this similar?

  • Hi JS,

    Yes, you need to buy the nrf52 DK. Keil offer free version, but you are limited in size code (32 kB max). You can work with Eclipse and GCC; you can search in Blogs section and Tutorials section for set up the toolchain.

    mBed is very nice for beginners, you have a Bluetooth low energy Team who helps, many examples and the nrf51 Dk is supported (mBed enabled). But for the nrf52 Dk, i don't know if it is enabled, you can search on mBed int the Plateform section: link text
