nRF52840 & Bluetooth 5.0 example

[ratharn]

Dear,

I am trying to test nRF52840 Preview DK. Is there any method to test bluetooth 5.0 feature or spec? Especially on speed and distance.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

nRF5 SDK v13.0.0-1.alpha contains examples to show the new long-range and high throughput features of Bluetooth 5 with nRF52840. From the release notes:

Highlights:

• Updated the BLE ATT_MTU Throughput Example (ble_app_att_mtu_throughput) to showcase a PHY data rate of 2 Mb/s and coded PHY for long-range transmission.

You can find details about the example here.

Best regards,

Jørgen

Hey Jorgen, thanks for your reply. Actually, i am a hobbyist and I don't know how to start with this board but I am interested in playing with it so if you guide me that how should I start, will be very helpful. I installed MDK-Arm from Keil website. I worked on Keil vision for microcontrollers but never use this one so I am confused what to do? Thanks for helping me
