NFC Samples on Thingy:91

[arizaerese]

Hello,

Is there any NFC sample for Thingy:91.

I need to connect a device to Thingy:91 using NFC for a project.

I am using v1.1.0 tag of ncs repo.To understand how NFC libraries works I wanted to look NFC samples. But when I tried to open a NFC sample (from ncs/nrf/samples/NFC) for Thingy:91, I got "board nrf52840_pca20035 is not supported" message.

How should I proceed? What is your advice?

Regards,
Ali Rıza

Yes, unfortunately, this is correct. There is, at the moment, only support for:

• nRF52840 DK board (PCA10056)

• nRF52 DK board (PCA10040)

 I will forward your inquiry to our software team to see if we have any other solutions. Will get back to you as soon as possible.

Sorry, for the inconvenience.

Kind regards,

Hello,

Note that next week is Christmas holiday for the Nordic support team, and you must expect some delay in your answers. Full support is back at the beginning of January.

The response from the Thingy:91 team is that official NFC samples are not available at the moment. I do not have any schedule, unfortunately. 

You can try porting the current NFC samples, remember to include the board in the CmakeLists.txt. (For example nrf\samples\nfc\record_text\CMakeLists.txt.). 

Happy holidays!

Kind regards,
Øyvind
