S332 BLE documentation

[del]

Hi,

I want to develop an ANT+BLE application using the D52Q module. I found the BLE serialization documentation but it's referred to S130, S132 SoftDevices. Is it compatible with the S332 SoftDevice?

Also, the related information is only available on the nRF5 SDK V11. Will it be available on the V12 version?

Thank you

Hi

Thank you for you question.

nRF5 SDK 12.0.0 unfortunately does not support serialization. SDK 12.0.0 supports S132 3.0.0 and S332 2.0.0 softdevices, see the SDK 12.0.0 release notes.

nRF5 SDK 11.0.0 however does support serialization. SDK 11.0.0 is compatible with S132 2.0.0 and S332 0.9.x. This means that S332 0.9.x should be based on S132 2.0.0. After all, the S332 is just a combination of S132 and S212 softdevices. The BLE part of S332 0.9.x should therefore have the same API as S132 2.0.0. Documentation in nRF5 SDK 11.0.0 for the serialization of S132 2.0.0 should therefore also apply for S332 0.9.x. I suspect there will be serialization option again available for later S332 softdevices in the next release of nRF5 SDK.
