That is correct. It uses Zephyr's BLE controller.

So this zephyr project doesn't use the SoftDevice Controller from the Connect SDK? It is using it's own BLE Controller implementation?

Hello,

I have not tested this, but I suppose what you are looking for is found here:

https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/zephyr/samples/bluetooth/hci_usb/README.html

This is a zephyr project, so it is not written, or directly supported by Nordic, strictly speaking, as our BLE controller is not the same as Zephyrs. That being said, Zephyr has supported the nRF for a long time, and I believe this is well tested.

Best regards,

Edvin
