 Can a phone (v4.2 bluetooth) connect to a nrf52840 board that uses 5v bluetooth? 
 
 
 How many (BLE) connections (simultaneously) can nrf52840 board handle?

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, v5 is backward compatible with v4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nRF52840 running S132 support up to 8 connection as a central, and 1 connection (for now) as a peripheral. Usually we use the phone as central, then the nRF52840 can only connect to one central at a time unless you setup the phone as a peripheral and nRF52 as central. See S132 Product Spec at section 16.1 .&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, it&amp;#39;s possible. It&amp;#39;s described at 2. It&amp;#39;s either the phone have to be peripheral and connect to a common nRF52840 central  or one of the nRF52840 have to be peripheral and central at the same time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
