Unfortunately, we cannot comment on future releases. Questions about this should be directed to your regional sales manager. If you do not know who this is, please message me your location and I will provide contact details.

Is a automotive grade version available or planned for nRF52, like 824 in nRF51-Series?

There are migration documents in the softdevice zip-files I linked above for S132 v3.0.0 to S132 v4.0.3. You can find migration document from S132 v2.0.0 to S132 v3.0.0 in the S132 v3.0.0 download.

OK, this was my understanding too. Is there information how to migrate from softdevice v2.0 to v4.0 available?

S132 v2.0.x does not support multiple connections as a peripheral. Only S132 v4.0.x and S132 v5.0.0-2.alpha support this.

Hello,

Does also softdevice v2.0 (nRF52832) support multiple peripheral roles simultaneously?

Hi,

The nRF51 series can only support one connection in the peripheral mode. In central mode, up to 8 connections is supported. If you want multiple connections as peripheral, you need to upgrade to nRF52832, which support up to 20 concurrent connections in total.

The devices are capable of doing non-connectable advertising during connection. Note that the Bluetooth specifications limits the advertising interval in this mode to 100 ms minimum.

Best regards,

Jørgen
