Can the new nrf21540 extend the range of a nrf52840 in long range mode?

Hello,

Can the new nrf21540 extend the range of a nrf52840 in long range mode?

Late 2018 I developed equipment using the nrf52840 in Long Range Mode.

In some use cases, we need to extend it't range, and wondered if the new nRF21540 would support this?

Thanks for any help!

  • Hi

    Yes, the nRF21540 supports long-range BLE as well and should extend the range of your device.

    Best regards,

    If you got the time: When will this Chip be available for the public?
