I am designing a Bluetooth proximity tag using nrf52832 SoC. I have designed and tested the circuit and it works fine. 
 What is the best method to read the coin cell battery level for my Bluetooth tag? If I use potential divider method will it</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 12 Sep 2016 12:00:29 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/16307/nrf52832-proxymity-battery-level-circuit" /><item><title>RE: nrf52832 Proxymity Battery Level Circuit</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/62339?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Sep 2016 12:00:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2e56d880-5c4d-43b8-aa1a-aa89aa45e781</guid><dc:creator>awneil</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Depends what you mean by &amp;quot;level&amp;quot; - the voltage level is not a very good indication of the level of charge ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: nrf52832 Proxymity Battery Level Circuit</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/62340?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Sep 2016 09:41:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:dd5642af-c861-43df-9118-53e3ce94f0a3</guid><dc:creator>Einar Thorsrud</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;You do not need any external circuitry at all if you have connected the battery directly to VDD, as the SAADC peripheral can use &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.nrf52832.ps.v1.1/saadc.html?cp=2_2_0_36_3#saadc_inputs"&gt;VDD as a input&lt;/a&gt;.
