Ok, let me try to explain.

Below you can see a section from the release notes for SDK v15.0.0:

As you can see, in SDK v15.0.0, there is support for the pure ANT softdevice S212 v5.0.0.
This can be downloaded from thisisant.com. When writing this, the latest softdevice available is S212 v5.0.0.
How to download and add the softdevice and header files is explained in this link: Running ANT examples.

There is, however, NOT support for the concurrent ANT/BLE softdevice S332 in SDK v.15.0.0.
If you want to know if or when there will be support for softdevice S332, please contact your RSM.

Best regards,
Joakim

I know I have to download ANT SoftDevice from website "thisisant". But there isn't compatible version available in thisisant.

Hi!

ANT SoftDevices for the nRF52 Series are not distributed by Nordic Semiconductor. You need to download and add them yourself.
You can download them from thisisant.com.

The SDK doesn't include the header files for the ANT Softdevices either, so you will need to add them as well.

All this is explained here:
Running ANT examples.

Best regards,
Joakim

There isn't SoftDevice hex file under S212 folder. Btw, I do need S332 to meet customer's requirement.

Hi!

As you can see from the SDK v15.0.0 release notes, there is support for the ANT Softdevice S212 v5.0.x.
Release notes.

However, there is currently no support for the concurrent ANT/BLE Softdevice S332.
Questions about when or if support for this will added, should be directed to your RSM.
If you don't know who that is, send me a PM with your location and I'll provide the contact information you need.

Best regards,
Joakim.
