It’s that time again The Nordic Global Tech Tour is about to hit the road again. This time it is all about the goodies inside our nRF52 Series for Bluetooth Smart and what they enable you to do. The Nordic Global Tech Tour (GTT) is always an exci...

Since I couldn't find the information of how the supply current would change with different supply voltage for nrf51 chip, this is the result of a little test that I made to get this info. Setup: nrf51 DK with variable voltage source connected to P2...

I have been using Eclipse to programming+build+flash+debugging my nRF51 DK apps. This requires carrying a Makefile forward, modifying as stuff changes...handling flash programming in less integrated way.... I was successful taking the Blinky exampl...

I've updated my article on external SWD programming using the nRF51-DK. I have also designed an adapter board for these modules. http://electronut.in/nrf51-dk-external-programming/#E3BO

Here is a small guide on how to build Wireshark with a BLE plugin under linux, with a small example on using this plugin with the Nordic Sniffer API. ##Prerequisites nRF Dongle (PCA10031/PCA10000) or similar Working installation of SEGGER J-Link...
