Single Device with Multiple NRF52832 modules

I have a device that has multiple NRF52832 modules

Is there any issues with setting the mac address of each of the modules to the same thing...

e.g. would there be any issues with devices connecting,

Also is their any Bluetooth specification issues that are against doing this? because i have been looking and have not found anything wrong with doing this?

  • Hi David,

    It would probably work if you used the static random device address type (see Vol. 6, Part B section 1.3. of the BT core 5 specification for address types). The GAP central would then establish a connection with the first device it sees advertising with the correct address. The problem is that it breaks the requirement of the address to be unique for each device (ref. core spec 5. vol.3, Part C, section 15.1).
