nRF52 SDK 0.9.2 compatibility with nRF52 SDK 17.0.2

[Marques]

Hello again,

I saw this Github's post and I was wondering if is possible to use some of the libraries and drivers with nRF52811 and if so should I pay attention to some incompatible driver 

I was trying to use the external rt-thread which uses different SPI drivers.

I am also using Direction Finding AoA and Segger (SES).

Sorry for bothering you again  

Best regards,

Catarina Marques

Hi Catarina Marques,

I do not know which SDK the Github is based on, as there is no nRF5 SDK v0.9.2, but from the commits I can see that it is a rather old SDK. The two SDK versions will not be compatible with each other, and I would not recommend using them together. Additionally, as you can see from nRF52811's compatibility matrix, only nRF5 SDK versions 15.3.0, 16.0.0 and 17.0.2 are supported on the nRF52811 SoC. If you want to use a RTOS in nRF5 SDK I would instead recommend looking at RTOS support in our documentation.

I am also using Direction Finding AoA and Segger (SES).

 If you want to develop an application for direction finding, I would recommend taking a look at nRF Connect SDK (NCS) instead of nRF5 SDK. You can find the documentation for this SDK here: nRF Connect SDK. In NCS we have two examples for direction finding: Direction finding connectionless locator and Direction finding connectionless beacon, with support for AoA. NCS is based on the Zephyr project, and includes the Zephyr RTOS, so you will also get a real-time operating system using that SDK. Please note that the direction finding samples are officially supported on the nRF52833 DK only as of now, so we cannot guarantee support with other boards.

Best regards,
