Last month Nordic released the nRF7002 DK, our first ever Wi-Fi Development Kit (DK), featuring the nRF7002 companion IC. The DK includes everything you would need to test the Wi-Fi capabilities of our new IC, including a 2.4/5 GHz antenna ...
Bluetooth SIG has finally adopted the Bluetooth® v5.4 core specification. This means that a new set of exciting features are available for Bluetooth products along with all the advantages they provide. Two of the major improvements are Periodic A...
In this blog post, we will get you up and running with your nRF7002 Development Kit (DK). We will first show you how to securely connect the nRF7002 DK to your Wi-Fi network and then how to establish bidirectional communication over Wi-Fi using MQTT.

The summer students in Nordic's application group spent this summer developing an interactive game using Nordic hardware, to demonstrate ...
If you are interested in smart home solutions and trying to keep up with the latest trends, you have likely heard about Matter. My name is Kamil Kasperczyk, I am a firmware engineer at Nordic Semiconductor, and I spent most of my days developing Matt...
nRF Util is Nordic's command line utility for Nordic products. You can easily use it to flash applications onto your Nordic device through a terminal. In the most recent major version update, v7.0.0, we saw major changes to the architecture and ...
The Thingy:53 is a bleeding edge IoT prototyping platform featuring the flagship nRF5340 dual-core Wireless SoC. It also contains several sensors and a rechargeable Li-Po battery, making it an excellent tool to rapidly prototype an application that c...
If you are a human, as opposed to a microcontroller, you might want an easy and intuitive way to read out data from your application. Adding a small OLED display to your project is a simple solution for this. Low-cost OLED displays are easily availab...
Introduction
Storing data is important for analysis and displaying information. Since device messages are stored on the nRF Cloud for 30 days, you have to forward them to another database if you want to store them for a longer time period. This can b...
Edge computing is a powerful way to be able to implement low power resource-saving machine learning in your application. Using Edge Impulse alongside the nRF52840 or nRF5340, you can do simple machine learning tasks such as mono audio processing.
Th...
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...
