 So we are currently debugging our custom nrf52832 board. It is equipped with both a 32.768khz and 32Mhz Oscillator, which both SEEM to work. 
 I tested both using the tips found around the forum, for the HFCLK using this loop 
 
 and for the LFCLK</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 05 Feb 2020 08:47:37 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/57385/bluetooth-advertising-cannot-be-seen-on-other-devices" /><item><title>RE: bluetooth advertising cannot be seen on other devices</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/232749?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 05 Feb 2020 08:47:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:6d3c5d40-8eaa-4e28-8fed-5b31730514b3</guid><dc:creator>haakonsh</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;If this is a 2-layer board, then you&amp;#39;re missing the return path for the antenna. Without a proper return path, the antenna won&amp;#39;t oscillate properly.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom ground plane needs a clear path from the antenna into the radio&amp;#39;s GND pin.&amp;nbsp;See our reference design for comparison.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The placement of the nRF52&amp;#39;s LC filter is also not ideal, the same is true for the alternative antenna connector. There will be some power losses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suggest you open a private case where you request an HW review of your design files.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
