PCA10028 S110 examples are missing?

Hello everyone, 

  I remember doing a project with PCA10028 board and S110 SDK a year or a year and a half ago. Now i want to do another project but all my materials which i used to have are now gone and now i can't find where to download examples for PCA10028 board with S110 SDK usage examples, i only can find examples with S130 SDK. So are the examples with S110 deprecated or i just can't simply find it? If it is, what is the newest SDK which is ready for production and could be used for a simple peripheral device? Thank you.

    The S110 support was deprecated after SDK v10.0.0, to reduce the amount of chip/SoftDevice versions that need to be tested for each release. 

    The S130 SoftDevice is essentially a super set of the S110, and you can use it for peripheral devices if you like. It will consume a bit more flash and RAM, but I wouldn't expect this to be an issue for most peripheral applications. 

    If you are fine using the S130 you can use SDK v12.3.0, which is the latest SDK to support the nRF51 family (from version 13 an onwards only the nRF52 family is supported).
