SDK12.3 flash storage

[Mr.Wu]

I want to store some data into flash. Whether there are relevant application notes or program code? Thanks

Do you use softdevice or not ? If you use softdevice please have a look at this fds usage here.

If you don't use softdevice, please have a look at the SDK example \examples\peripheral\flashwrite

[Mr.Wu]

use softdevice, this test code：link text

Called directly in the main.c， no problem。 If, called in a callback function， the application stops running
