Can I use an nRF52805 module like BC805M for a HID device? How?

Dear Sir/Madam,

While I did take a course in Bluetooth I am still a beginner.

I know some boards have HID "support" (RN42 for example) I find it hard to believe that it's not something that can be added to any module.

If so, what is the minimal/simplest path to use a BC805M  for sending Mouse/Keyboard commands from the UART/GPIO to a Bluetooth-connected phone or computer?

I mean what IDE do I need to use, programming pod, library, maybe example code.  Maybe evaluation board, although I believe I can connect the module myself to the rest of my device.

If the nRF52805/BC805M is not right for me (I need smallest, cheapest MODULE, not chip), can you please recommend another, again with IDE to use, etc.

Thanks and best,

Cat

  • Again I can't reply to your last message, so I might as well reply to the first. (What am I supposed to do about this? What should I be doing?)

    Anyway, the code builds fine and I can load it to the board in "release" mode.  I just can't see it with other devices to connect to it.

    When I build in "debug" mode it does not fit anymore.  Remember; I had to use NRF5 SDK instead of your big new one because the device has little memory.
