Hi Jorgen

Ok,I know,I will develop thread mesh by nRF2840

Thanks!

nRF52820 is not currently supported in the latest nRF5 SDK for Thread and Zigbee v4.1.0, as the base nRF5 SDK did not have support for this chip at the time of the release. For details on when support for nRF52820 will be added to the Thread SDK, please contact your regional sales manager.

Hi Jorgen

I had known nordic can run the thread mesh(the network mesh is work ipv6 and the may layer is 802.15.4),

so the version of nRF5_SDK_for_Thread_and_Zigbee_v4.1.0 can run thread mesh on chip nRF52820 chip?

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately, the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC examples in nRF5 SDK has not been tested to work with nRF52820. The libraries that come precompiled with the SDK has been written and built for use with the nRF52840 IC only. There may be small changes in the chips and radio peripherals that makes the example not run out of the box on other chips.

I'm not aware of any plans to add support for nRF52820 in this example. If this is important for you, you may reach out to your regional sales manager to request further support.

Best regards,
Jørgen
