nRF52840 maximum data throughput

[DJ]

How many nRF52840 chips can be used simultaneously? Can all data and advertisement channels be used at maximum capacity (2Mbps/each) to result in an overall throughput of 2Mbps*N where N is the number of nRF52840 chips < # of channels available?

Thanks

Hi Roger, I totally agree, going with something like ESP8266 or ESP32 based low-power WiFi should be much easier then fiddling with multiple BLE chips. I cannot exclude that by teaming 3-5 nRF52840 you couldn't achieve same bandwidth as on ESP with still lower power consumption but development cost (on both HW and SW) should prevent you from going that way...
