USB communication between nRF52840-DK and Android

[MVA]

I'm working on the project where data from nRF52840 need to be send to Android over wire. The customer does not want to use BLE.

I can connect nRF52840-DK development board to PC and use virtual com port driver to communicate with nRF52840 chip.

I can make similar connection to Android using OTG cable, but I need driver for Android OS.

Does anyone know if virtual com port driver exist for Android device?

Currently I'm using Android version 5.0, but I can switch to newer one if necessary.

I'll be using custom Java app on Android.

Thank you.

Hi,

 

I would recommend asking in android related forums on this matter. We do not have much experience with USB devices directly connected to android systems.

 

Kind regards,
