Can the nrf52840 as the peripheral be controlled by msp430fr5994?

Hi There,

I want to make a BLE controller by using msp430fr5994. And the ned52830 as a peripheral. Does it work?

With best regards,

Hi,

1) What do you mean by "controlled by msp430fr5994" ?

2) Why do you need to use the msp430fr5994? Can't you achieve your use-case with nRF52840 alone?

Yes. I want to control the nrf52840 by other MCU drivers. I know 52840 can compute, and communicate. But, I have some specific requirements, like restoring system status when coming from the outage. 

Yes, if so. Can you provide me with some driver examples for 52840?

Best,

Gaosheng

Hi,

Maybe you can do this on the nRF52840 as well.

Anyways, there are some options on how you can control the nRF52840

E.g. using serialization, see this link: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v17.1.0/lib_serialization.html

Another option, if the other MCU provider have a Bluetooth Host implementation, you could then use the SoftDevice Controller as the Bluetooth Controller(running on the nRF52), connect to the other MCU with e.g. UART, and run the Bluetooth Host on the other MCU.

Thank you! Sigurd!
