Does PCA10001 board is supported by sdk 10

I am facing wierd behavior after migrating to sdk 10 serialization code i.e ble_connectivity example program. Unable to scan peripheral devices, some times unable to connect.

Hi,

As seen in this table, the nRF51x22 Evaluation Kit(PCA10001) uses an nRF51 IC revision 1 or 2. This is an outdated chip revision, and is not support in the newer SDK versions. As seen in this compatibility matrix, SDK 10 only supports nRF51 IC rev.3

I would therefore recommend upgrading to a Development Kit. For new products I would recommend a nRF52832-DK, where you have support for the latest SDK versions and Bluetooth 5.

Unfortunately, the chapter “Using the SDK with other boards” is not very accurate.

I think the idea behind the table is to show that the nRF5 SDK’s versions combined(i.e. SDK 5+6+7+8+9+10, etc,) supports these boards in total. I.e. it does not show what the individually SDK versions supports. For that information, you have to use the compatibility matrix.

I have reported it internally that the “Using the SDK with other boards” should state this more clearly. I’m sorry for the confusing this have caused.
