Compatibility matrix and what SDK I need.

[Tyler]

I'm trying out different SDK's and some of them are working to an extent (they load the softdevice, and the app, but when I test run in debug they start at a different location on the app other than main()). I am looking at the compatibility matrix, and I don't entirely comprehend what I am looking at.

I know for starters that this is the model of devkit board I am using. http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nRF52832_PS_v1.1.pdf

Am I supposed to go with Revision 1? If so, why does 13.0.0-1.alpha act the way I described above? Is there any reason I should go with a lower version SDK?

Check this.

If you are using PCA10040 0.9.0, you have Engineering B version of the chip. But It is more probable that you have PCA10040 1.1.0 or 1.1.1 (or newer?) so you have Revision 1 chip. If you have any of them, you can use any of SDK from 11.0.0 version, all from the last (currently) row. I would stick to 12.2.0 right now if you don't need any features from bluetooth 5 though.
