I appreciate the help. I'll try out using the SPI and nrf24L01+; the test app is a good starting point.

Many thanks,

Jake

Hi Jake

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away I wrote a small example for controlling the nRF24L01+ from the nRF52DK (nRF52832).

As mentioned by Andrew the interface is SPI based, plus the interrupt and CE lines, and my example sets up the SPI driver to access the nRF24L01+.

The API is similar to the old nrf_hal interface that was used for the nRF24LE1 and nRF24LU1+ embedded versions of the nRF24L01+.

You will find the example included. Please be aware that it was written for SDK v13.1.0, and does not include nRF52840 project files, but in the hope that it will be of some use to you I have included it here "as is":

l01_test_app.zip

Best regards
Torbjørn

[quote userid="75469" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/43227/nrf52840-dk-nrf24l01-chips"]is there any way to attach a nrf24L01+ transceiver to my nrf52840 DK [/quote]

Yes: the nrf24L01+ transceiver uses an SPI interface; the nrf52840 has SPI
