Is nRF8002 is backward compatible with nRF8001

berkan

Hi,

I am curious what is the main difference between nRF8001 and nRF8002.One is for connectivity and the other is for proximity. However, I would like to develop an application about both proximity and connectivy. So I cant choose which one suits better for my application. When Proximity is reached device has to start sync trough uart channel. IS nRF8002 supports that?

Thanks Berkan

    Your application will best work with the nRF8001. The nRF8002 does not include the UART Service and does not require any firmware, it only requires configuration from the nRFgo studio and no coding is required (this also means that you cannot change the firmware on the nRF8002).

    It would be simple for you to combine the Proximity and the nRF UART applications on the nRF8001. Remember that the nRF8001 requires an external mcu. The Arduino SDK for the nRF8001 can be used to get started on the nRF8001. See devzone.nordicsemi.com/arduino
