Periodic Advertisement

[Mihir Tailor]

Hello,

I am using nRF52832 based development board (PCA10040) and softdevice v6.1.0.

I want to ask that does the feature of Periodic Advertisement of Bluetooth 5 depend on the SOC nRF52832 or softdevice v6.1.0 or both?

Thanks

The SoC is just an FSK transceiver with a processor, peripherals, etc.  It knows absolutely nothing about Bluetooth. Everything Bluetooth is part of the softdevice.

Ok Thanks.

Now i got that periodic advertisement feature of Bluetooth 5 depends on the softdevice.

Does Softdevice 6.1.0 support the Periodic Advertisement feature?

[Mihir Tailor]

Ok Thanks for your support

Hi, is there any update on support for Periodic Advertisements? Is it supported by the latest versions of the Softdevice and SDK?

[Joakim Jakobsen]

Hi. 

I'm afraid that Periodic Advertisements is not supported in the latest version (SDK v.16 at writing time). 

Any questions related to future releases or the roadmap should be directed to the Nordic RSM for your area. 

Best regards,
