nRF52811 replacement over nRF52832 plug-and-play ?

Hi,

Our entire board is running around a nRF52832. Recently it has been difficult to find some of these SOC. Is it safe to replace it with the nRF52811 without changing the board layout and the firmware ?

Thanks !

The pinout of the two is the same, so you can replace one with the other. But you need to re-compile the FW for the new device. Any radio certifications will have to be done again as well.
