https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/7660/mbed-or-nrf51-sdkHi, i hope i&#39;m not duplicating any questions, but i couldn&#39;t find a similar one. I worked with other ARM micros in both mbed and Keil before, but i&#39;m new to Nordic Semiconductor chips and BLE stuff in general. I&#39;m to do a BLE project, and i shoulden-USTelligent Community 13Wed, 15 Jul 2015 05:39:41 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/27289?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 15 Jul 2015 05:39:41 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8c9c792f-2c79-475b-a691-abfd375bd8eaMahesh Venkitachalam<p>I have a write-up on getting started with nRF51 using GCC on OS X and windows here:</p> <p><a href="http://electronut.in/nrf51-adc-test/">electronut.in/.../</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/27288?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 17 Jun 2015 12:33:04 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:5c2fa364-7e72-4501-8406-ccdb791ca8cfnightgoat<p>Oh Thanks a lot ! Almost forgot about the 32KB Keil limitation, will probably have to use eclipse, so thanks for the link too.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/27287?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 17 Jun 2015 12:01:38 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:4e2fc5ed-647b-4edb-9ebe-4c118ee7066cNguyen Hoan Hoang<p>For me, I find the SDK more flexible, more support and you can debug with jtag directly. On the other hand mBed is easier to start but very limited. Starting with mBed for quick start and migrate to the SDK once you are ready to do more is probably the best route.</p> <p>To work with Eclipse &amp; GCC follow this <a href="http://embeddedsoftdev.blogspot.ca/p/ehal-nrf51.html">blog</a>. You won&#39;t be limited with the 32KB of Keil.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
