Regarding availability of BLE5.1 Enabled SDK

Hello Nordic community,

I found three IC on BLE 5.1 are nRF52811, nRF52833, and nRF5340.

I have to choose one IC for my new project based on availability of SDK and RTOS (Zephyr, Amazon FreeRTOS)support.

suggest me SDK which supports BLE 5.1 and RTOS based BLE example.

Thanks and Regards,

Nikunj

  • Hi Nikunj,

    All version 7.x.x SoftDevices are Bluetooth 5.1 qualified, which means that all nRF52 devices are Bluetooth 5.1 qualified. Note that most features added since 4.0 are optional, so there is a difference in what is supported by the various devices. Which SDK to recomend depend on which chip you are deciding to use and which features you need. Generally, the nRF5 SDK is usually recommended for nRF52 devices, and the nRF Connect SDK (which incorporates the Zephyr RTOS) is recommended for nRF5340. There is also support for the nRF52 series in nRF Connect SDK, but it is not officially supported at the moment.
