NRF52840 DK with NRF52811

Question

Hi, 
 I would like to evaluate the NRF52811 chipset module (BMD-360 from UBlox) using the NRF52840 DK. 
 If I am to read the Constant Tone Extension that will be transmitted by the NRF52811 chip, will I be able to read this tone from the NRF52840 DK? 
 
 Thanks a lot!

Hi 
 The Constant Tone Extension will not be possible to transmit or read (receive) from the nRF52840 DK, as the nRF52840 is not hardware compatible with this feature. For a Nordic product that is, please check out the nRF52833 DK instead. 
 Best regards, 
 Simon

Hi 
 You can do any evaluation not specific to Bluetooth 5.1 (that is AoA/AoD, CTE, and IQ sampling in particular) with the nRF52840DK. Note that the nRF52811 module does support things like CTE, but the nRF52840 won't be able to pick up and handle these transmissions. 
 Please note that we're entering the summer vacation period here in Norway, so delays must be expected as we are low on staff for the month of July. Sorry about the inconvenience! 
 Best regards, 
 Simon
