Any example and/or reference design for developping keyboard with nRF52 series ?

[Niconix]

Hello,

For a new project, I'm looking for examples / reference design to developp a classic wireless (proprietary 2.4GHz) keyboard with nRF52 series. Does a such thing exist , Or maybe a "standard" nRF52 module exist to control a matrix keypad ? I saw ghe nRFReady Desktop 2 but it seems to be obsolete?

I'm searching for this to reduce developping time and avoid sofware fevelopment.

thanks in advance for the feedback,

Best regards,

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

We have some very simple HID keyboard and mouse examples in the nRF5-SDK, but they are not reference designs. The nRFReady Desktop 2 is pretty old, and only for the nRF51-series.

For a nRF52 desktop reference design, we are working on the upcoming “nRF52 Desktop”. It uses the new nRF Connect SDK. You can read about nRF52 desktop here, and the code can be found here. It’s not production ready yet, so if this is suitable for you or not might also depend on the timeline you have for your project. I recommend contacting your local Nordic Regional Sales Manager(RSM) if you are interested in the roadmap for the nRF52 Desktop reference design, or if you need more information about it.

Let me know if you need the RSM contact information.

BR,

Sigurd
