Nordic Semiconductor recommends following the PSA Certified IoT Security Framework in your product development process. The four-step process of analyze, architect, implement, certify, provides a framework to guide your decisions from conce...
This is an updated field test of the one we did in 2019 at the same location. During this updated field test, we also captured more parameters for both LTE-M and NB-IoT devices and, we captured power measurements of the cellular devices on each ...
Preface
The bulk of the development work described in this blog post occurred during the 2021 calendar year. This means it reflects the state of iOS, Mac, Swift, and SwiftUI Development before and after the transition from the iOS 14 "family" of rele...
The embedded world trade fair presents itself as the leading trade fair for embedded systems. It allows the embedded community to get information about new products and innovations. But also allows us to exchange information and maintain and develop ...
The Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) connectivity standard has gained immense popularity in recent years, mainly due to the growing ubiquity of IoT solutions in both consumer electronics and industry. Thanks to its low-power nature, it is widely used in hea...
The highly anticipated nRF5340 Audio Development Kit and nRF Connect SDK software module is finally available. On that occasion, I am writing this blog post to quickly get everyone up to speed on the most important features and as...
I am an avid conference attendee, speaker and organizer, but all in the area of software development and testing for cloud-based software.
My colleagues have reached out to me in search for interesting conferences that focus on embedded software development (in C), testing and quality, but I came up pretty empty handed.
So I reached out to my network and was able to get some great tips, which I am happy to share below…
Tell me if this has happened to you before.
You open some file, one you haven't touched in a while. This might be because you need to use an API, a coworker of yours wrote. Maybe it's a library or package you need to learn. Sometimes (and let this no...
In this blog post, we will show you how to build a pager with a micro:bit v2 and nRF Connect SDK. Writing application in C using nRF Connect SDK gives you the highest level of control over the micro:bit v2 in terms of functionality and power consumption.
FYI: The video above shows a similar test as this blog post, just using two nRF52840 DKs and two nRF21540 DKs. The blog post uses one nRF52840 DK and two nRF21540 DKs. One of the reasons we did multiple tests was to verify the range results in diffe...
Introduction
The Asset Tracker v2 is a highly configurable asset tracker application available in nRF Connect SDK, that supports, among many things, multiple cloud services and configuring the behavior at run-time via cloud services. This allows...
Introduction
Machine Learning in the wireless edge-device space leverages the processing power of the local microprocessor to minimize the amount of data being transmitted. Since radio transmissions are high current events, this lowers the overall po...
Do you want to learn how to design advanced wearables with Nordic SoCs? The winning projects from the Advanced Wearables Contest on Hackster.io are available for your reference now.
The world has encountered so many challenges to ...
Nordic and Nowi have partnered to develop an energy autonomous version of the Nordic Thingy:91, an easy-to-use prototyping platform for cellular IoT using LTE-M, NB-IoT and GPS. The energy autonomous Thingy:91 plug-in board enables the user to develo...
In the last few years, the field of IoT and especially smart home applications has seen a near exponential growth in both customizable protocols and out-of-the-box applications which everyone and their mother have in their homes. These applications a...
The nRF Connect for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) lets you develop, build, and debug applications based on the nRF Connect SDK using the VS Code Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
Objectives
The objective of this blog is to guide the user in the optimization of power on the nRF5340 SoC. The goal is to understand what is needed from a software, hardware, and system level design to minimize the power in your device. This b...
The Bluetooth Core Specifications v5.3, released mid-July 2021, is the latest version of Bluetooth, the number one short-range wireless protocol. This new version introduces several features enhancements and a new feature. Enhancements includes the P...
MIDI is a well-known protocol used by musical instruments to communicate. A typical modern application is connecting a musical keyboard to a DAW, letting you record directly into software and edit your notes. MIDI devices do not transmit sound, but r...
During the development of nRF5340 - a chip that may power your next headphones or gaming mouse - an important question came up: can it run the classic game Doom? A fully functional version of the game, with little to no compromises? To run smoothly, ...
When working with Real-Time Operating systems like zephyr it is necessary to know how to differentiate between the threads while debugging. This Blog shows you how to accomplish that.
One of the things you asked us for after launching the new Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) was extending the maximum logging time, some of you wanted hours or even days of continuous logging. We went to work and have now released an update for the nRF C...
