BLE AT command support and MFI query

[Vignesh Lal]

Hello, 

We are at initial stage of design proposal.  

Could you please provide the clarification on following points?

1. nRF9160 SoC is interface with BLE chip nRF52480 via UART. Will nRF52480 Software compatible with AT command interface support?
2. Is nRF52480 BLE module and software are approved for MFI program of Apple iOS support?

Thanks,

Vignesh

Hi Vignesh,

1. I am not entirely sure what you mean by this.
Are you going to send AT commands from the 52 to the 91? --> see sample here: https://github.com/NordicPlayground/nRF52-clients-for-serial-LTE-modem and run the SLM application on nRF91.

2. What type of accessory are you planing to develop? It is a few special cases where it is required that you are in the MFI program. (e.g. Homekit)

Best regards,
Martin L.
