silicon build revision on nrf51822-dk

[NK]

Hi,

Do all NRF51822-DK (development kit) have the same silicon build revision? If not, which distributor should I approach for the latest revision and is there a specific product code that I can use while ordering the latest revision?

Regards, NK

Most (if not all) distributors have the latest version of the chip/DK. You should get the DK with nRF51822 part number QFAAG0. There's no specific ordering code, but you should get the latest chip revision kit when you order now. If you're in doubt you could ask here or contact the Nordic technical support once you've received the kit to be sure.

EDIT: nRF51822 Development (DK) and Evaluation (EK) kit revision number 2.2.0 or later will have QFAAGx or later chip revisions.

Hi Asbjørn,

Thanks for your reply. I want to be certain since I would be ordering from India & returning a shipment would be cumbersome.

Would you know if the the NRF51822-DK & NRF51822-beacon kits sold on semiconductorstore.com would have the latest revision (QFAAG0)? Links below.

I did try contacting semiconductorstore.com but they seemed unsure.

Updated my reply with the kit revisions that you would be interested in.

Thank you Asbjørn - I can confirm [for the benefit of others who might have the same doubt] that the development kit I have received from semiconductorstore.com has revision number 2.2.0.

If the dev-kit (with QFAAGx chip) is revision number 2.2.0 does that translate into rev 2 or 3 of the nrf51822? Thanks
