What is their advantages and disadvantage? Can they switch between each another in the program code? I try but cannot.

They both have the same functions available and names. The HW one will be slightly better for battery, but the HW had initially when the nRF51 was launched some anomalies that was discovered. To create a workaround while waiting for the HW fix, the SW implementation was made. I would recommend you to stick with one of them and not switch between.</p> <p>You can use either of them for your project.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
