Use PC-BLE-DRIVER on FENSTEL EV-BT840XE (nRF52840 MCU)

[Piwy]

Hello,

 I want to use pc-ble-driver WITH an EV-BT8400XE.

I develop with SDK15.3 (last compatible version of SDK for pc-ble-driver)

I am successfully able to use pc-ble-driver on nRF52840 by using pre-compiled files or by use patch for SDK 415.3 with ble_connectivity\pca10056\ser_s140_usb_hci example.

I think for EV-BT840XE to work with pc-ble-driver i need to use connectivity\ble_connectivity\pca10056\ser_s140_uart example because ev-bt840xe have a bridge USB to UART

 1 ) => Could you confirm that it's the example i need to use or not ?

First of all i don't succed in the use of UART in this board, i tried to use app_uart example with PIN_RX =11 and PIN_TX=12 according to the schematics of the EV-BT840 board, 

I don't understand how to use Uart with EV-840xe and if it's the right way of think to use pc-ble-driver with it ?

Can you help me understand how to configure this board for this use ?

Thanks!

Regards,

Pierre-Yves

Hi,

Did you use the nRF52840 development kit or the nRF52840 on a custom board?

The schematics shows a UART to USB bridge somewhat similar to the one on the development kit. I therefore think you should use the same file that you use for the DK for the Evaluation kit.
