Can I use a newer softDevice(v5) on an old SDK(SDK12.2 SoftDevice v3)?https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/25307/can-i-use-a-newer-softdevice-v5-on-an-old-sdk-sdk12-2-softdevice-v3Hello I was wondering whether is possible to use an updated version of the softDevice into an older SDK, my current hw is a nRF52832pca10040 DK For example, I am currently working with the SoftDevicev3 since I use SDK12.2, however I would like toen-USTelligent Community 13Tue, 19 Sep 2017 19:34:38 GMTRE: Can I use a newer softDevice(v5) on an old SDK(SDK12.2 SoftDevice v3)?https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/99732?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 19 Sep 2017 19:34:38 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:15e7f184-6e2d-46f4-bdcf-a5dd47281c8aendnode<p>Yes, each SD version has usually slightly different RAM settings (in major versions or alpha/full release changes also flash limits)...</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: Can I use a newer softDevice(v5) on an old SDK(SDK12.2 SoftDevice v3)?https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/99731?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 19 Sep 2017 19:26:04 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d11bc5f0-bc5d-4705-a7f3-84d6345d7516ndarkness<p>@endnode thanks!

However it can break compatibility with examples (logically - if SD API changes you need to change it in the source code and if some SDK module uses Soft Device it needs porting/review) so unless you want to do manual review of all SDK source files you use stay with the SDK which uses your favorite version of Soft Device.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
