How to connect nRF2740 to Arduino Micro

Hi, I'd like to connect my nRF2740 to my MCU Arduino Micro and test it with the sample codes found in your GIT repo. How can I do this? Best regards, Alessandro

  • Hi,

    Please take a look at the readme file for the Arduino SDK. You should open one of the projects to see which pins are configured by default. I suggest starting with the hello world project.

    The HW layout of the nRF8001 module can be found here.

    Notice the following in the main readme file: “When using the nRF2740/nRF2741 modules directly wired to the Arduino:

    When the Arduino uses a 5v microcontroller, you may have to use level converters or a resistive divider to get the voltage to 3.3v for the lines that are output from Arduino to the nRF8001. The Arduino(3.3v-1.9v) or the Arduino DUE can be wired directly to the nRF8001 without any level converters or resistive dividers.”
