NRF24L01 compatibility with NRF24L01+

Hello all,

I would like to ask you something,

I've done all my development with NRF24L01+ but now I have some NRF24L01 modules.

I know that NRF24L01+ is fully compatible with NRF24L01, but the other way around, is it also true?

What are the differences between the two?

Best regards, Mauro.

  • Hi Mauro,

    Yes, nRF24L01 is compatible with nRF24L01+ both ways. The nRF24L01+ has better receiver sensitivity than the nRF24L01, only the nRF24L01+ features the 250kbps data speed mode, and only the nRF24L01 has a LNA gain setting. As long as you don't use the 250 kbps data speed mode on the nRF24L01+, you will be able to establish a link between a nRF24L01+ and a nRF24L01.

    Best regards, Jon Gunnar
