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

Hi.

You are correct that the advertisement features depend on the softdevice.

Unfortunately the Softdevice s132 v6.1.0 does not support periodic advertisement, nor syncing to periodic advertisers. 

Best regards,
Joakim

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,
