Mesh SDK for nRF52810

[TMiranda]

Hi all,

As I've been researching, the mesh sdk is not supported on the nRF52810 SoC, although being compatible. Is there any development or plan in changing this? I'm planning on doing a project using NORDIC SoCs that uses BLE Mesh Network, and I would like to use the nRF52810, since it's the most reliable considering it's cost.

Although I could change my plans to use the nRF51822, I would prefer to work with Bluetooth 5.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

We do have plans to add support for nRF52810 in the Mesh SDK. I can't provide a specific date but expect it to be available in Q2.

Is latest Mesh SDK (v2.2.0) support for nRF52810?

I am looking specifically on Mesh light switch example project. If current mesh SDK does not support, is it possible to port existing nrf52832 into nrf52810 and is there any guide on this?

Thanks

Hi.

Sorry about the delayed response.

If you look at the documentation for the the nRF5 SDK for Mesh:
"nRF52810 support is limited. It is very limited in both Flash and RAM, therefore it does not currently support DFU and logging is disabled to save flash. Furthermore, it should be compiled with optimization for size, i.e., -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel for CMake or the 'ReleaseWithDebugInformation' setting in SEGGER Embededd Studio."

So the answer is yes. nRF52810 is supported, however with some limitations.

I haven't tested it myself, but I believe it's possible to use the Light Switch examples on the nRF52810.

Best regards,
Joakim.
