About version and SDK question in nRF52810 ， and 2.4G question

[tony55723]

Hi ,

SDK : nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a

Chip : nFR52810
【1】Is nRF52810 only use pca10040e （nRF52832 = pca10040 , nRF52840 = pca10056） ? And can't use wrong （nRF52810 use pca10040 ）?

【2-1】In examples proprietary_rf , Here is only the example of pca10040 , So I have to download a lower version of the SDK ?

【2-2】This examples ,esb_ptx should be transmitter ,  and esb_prx is  receiver?

【2-3】What is the difference between esb_low_power_ptx  and esb_ptx ? esb_ptx  transmission distance is far?

【2-4】In example file proprietary_rf \ gzll , what is gzll ? Many abbreviations don't know what it is.

（gzp and ack are the same）（Or where is the document detailed ? Instead of every project, go in and see...）

Thank you all, my foundation is not good, but I will study hard.

Hi,

I can help you only with few points.

1. nrf52810 does not have dedicated DK (development kit). You can "simulate" nrf52810 using nrf52832 on PCA10040DK. There are very few limitations related to that but you can find details in the documentation:

http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.0.0/nrf52810_user_guide.html?cp=4_0_0_5_0

Nordic already provides few simulated projects and they are called pca10040e. These projects shall be flashed to PCA10040 board.

If you wish to have a real nrf52810 DK you would need to replace (resolder) nrf52832 with nrf52810 on the PCA10040 DK ;)

2-4. gzll is abbreviation of Gazell

Thank you for answer，

I have samples here,（nRF52810）

I want to download the proprietary 2.4G to test, but there is no pca10040e project in SDK15

I was thinking about it before， is there a pca10040e project for the low version SDK?

But I saw the link for you provided.，i feel that all pca10040e projects are not all，just like proprietary_rf examples 

If I want to do a 2.4G product, should I refer to the pca10040 example instead of tangling the pca10040e example?

Hi,

• The SDK only have project files for nRF52810 (pca10040e) in a few examples. However, you can follow the Transferring the project to nRF52810 hardware description to adapt a nRF52840 example.
• You will not find more example projects for nRF52810 in any older SDK, so I strongly recommend that you stick with the latest (currently SDK 15.0.0).
• Yes, the esb_ptx is a transmitter example and the esb_prx is a corresponding receiver example.
• You can refer to the  Low Power Transmitter/Receiver Example documentation for details about the low power transmitter example. Essentially, the receiver is always on so that the transmitter can send data at any time, and sleep the rest of the time (thereby conserving power).
• gzll is Gazelle, which is a Nordic proprietary protocol. It has some similarity with ESB, but is more complex, supporting frequency hopping and pairing. You can refer to the User Guides for details.
