updating my S132 from 2.0.0-7.alpha to 2.0.1 or 3.0.0

[manymany]

Hello, I am still using S132 version 2.0.0-7.alpha with Keil uVision V5.21.1.0 Should I move to newer version. Why uVision doesn't see new S132 versions in the pack installer ? Maybe stupid question but thanks for giving answers.

Hi,

This depends on which IC revision you are using. I would definitely recommend that you upgrade to the latest version of the softdevice supported by your chip revision. Which SDK version are you using?

The reason why no newer S132 versions is available in the pack installer is that we don't support CMSIS packs anymore.

You can download the latest SDK versions from here, and the softdevices here: S132 v2.0.1, S132 v3.0.0.

Best regards,

Jørgen

My chip was N52832QFAABA so I unsoldered and soldered a new one N52832QFAAB0 so if I understand I should be able to use S132 3.0.0 + SDK 12. Can I do that with keil without the package installer ?

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

Yes, QFAB is the latest revision of the chip and will support SDK12 an S132 v3.0.0. You cannot do this update inside Keil, you will have to download the latest SDK and port your project to the new SDK. There is a Template Application that you can use as base for building your new project.

I mounted QFAAB0 not QFAB, is that OK ? (I corrected also my comment QFAAB0 not QFAB0). Thanks a lot for your answers.

Yes, QFAAB0 is also revision 1 chip, just with more Flash and RAM than QFABB0.
