NRF connect SDK NFC driver without Zephyr or freeRTOS compatible

[TomSt]

Hello,

We need to produce a driver for the ST25R3911B NFC chip working with NRF52840.

We just need to read NFCA tags so we thought that the example nfc/tag_reader included with your nRF Connect SDK would be ideal. I.e. it does not contain unnecessary features and it uses precisely the same HW we are planning on using.

 

We managed to build and successfully run the example on our dev setup (nRF52840-DK + X-NUCLEO-NFC05A1).

 

The problem we are facing to produce our code is that we are planning to use FreeRTOS, but the demo uses Zephyr.

The demo code is heavily dependent on Zephyr features that are not easily translated into FreeRTOS.

 

We wonder if anyone at Nordic is working on a version easy to port to other RTOSs, or usable without one.

It would be truly helpful if you had a FreeRTOS version!

 

Thank you very much for your time.

Hi,

Unfortunately, we do not have any such example. You can probably get some inspiration from the Zephyr example, though. And the nRF5 SDK also comes with another NFC reader example which might be interesting to look at, but that uses the PN532 chip-set, so the low-level stuff will not be relevant for you.

Br,
