Does SoftDevice S112 or S113 offer mesh support on a nRF52811?

Does SoftDevice S112 or S113 offer mesh support on a nRF52811?

The intended use is for an end-device running very simple app-logic. According to the SoftDevice properties in "s112_nrf52_7.0.1_release-notes.pdf" the combined MBR and SoftDevice memory requirements are 100.0 kB flash and 3.7 kB RAM. That leaves about 24 kb so it ought to be doable if the application fits within that space, isn't it? 

What I also couldn't figure out, is if the mesh functionality affects the call stack heavily. The release notes states that the worst-case stack usage is 1.5 kB but that seems a bit low.

Btw, what's basic difference between S112 and S113? I couldn't find any comparison charts regarding this.

  • I just got an update from the development team, and since the nRF52811 isn't mentioned in the Mesh compatibility section, it can not be considered to be officially supported (even limited), but that doesn't mean that it doesn't work. We just can't guarantee that it will work. Although I don't see why it shouldn't. I just wanted to mention that as a sort of disclaimer for you.
