Can I use the example code for PCA 10056 for PCA 10100?

[Siddharth Venkatesh]

I have latest SDK, which is nRF SDK 16.00. I have noticed that not all the examples are available for PCA 10100. 

So my question is what is the difference between the PCA 10100 examples and the PCA 10056 examples. Is it a hardware difference or can I use software to make it work with my board. 

Thanks

Hi

It should not be very hard to port a PCA10056 example to be PCA10100 compatible. You will have to do the following in order to make a project suitable for the PCA10100:

• Change the board config to PCA10100
• Change the board definition in preprocessor definition
• Adjust RAM and Flash memory if this differs from the PCA10056 version (only applicable if you use another SoftDevice I believe)
• Alternatively, remap GPIOs if you're using any on the PCA10100 that you don't on the PCA10056 version.

Best regards,

Simon

Hi 

Thanks for that. I see what I was doing wrong before. I did the config and the board definition, but I did not adjust the memory configuration. 

I just had to copy the exact settings from an already existing PCA10100 project's options.
