https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/66718/how-to-connect-nrf52840-ble-in-a-desktop-appI am very new to the Embedded world and very confused about some stuff, I have searched the internet for 8 hours and then asked here. I am being assigned to the task of searching the internet for the source code to make nRF52840 connect with the Desktopen-USTelligent Community 13Tue, 06 Oct 2020 12:16:33 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/273219?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 06 Oct 2020 12:16:33 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:47e10499-03a7-44eb-a953-16304e4d90bdKenneth<p>Check out the app and source code by Microsoft here:<br /><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/bluetooth-le-explorer/9n0ztkf1qd98?activetab=pivot:overviewtab">https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/bluetooth-le-explorer/9n0ztkf1qd98?activetab=pivot:overviewtab</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Then you can use the native BLE in the desktop to connect to a peer device such as nRF52840.</p> <p>In terms of what firmware to program to the nRF52840 that will depend on what application you want to develop, but a good starting point may be the simple BLE blinky or nRF UART examples:<br /><a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_blinky.html">https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_blinky.html</a><br /><a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_nus_eval.html">https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_nus_eval.html</a></p> <p>Note that if you need to support bonding I recommend to check out the heart rate sensor example:<br /><a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_hrs.html">https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.0.2/ble_sdk_app_hrs.html</a>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
