Nordic 52832 - development

Softdevice - nRF52

• S132 SoftDevice
  The S132 SoftDevice is a Bluetooth low energy central and peripheral protocol stack solution. It supports up to twenty connections with an additional observer and a broadcaster role all running concurrently. The S132 SoftDevice integrates a Bluetooth low energy Controller and Host, and provides a full and flexible API for building Bluetooth low energy nRF52 System on Chip (SoC) solutions.
• S140 SoftDevice
  The S140 SoftDevice is a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) Central and Peripheral protocol stack solution that extends the feature set of S132 v3.0 and supports Bluetooth 5.
• S212 SoftDevice
  The S212 SoftDevice is an ANT™ protocol stack solution that provides a full and flexible Application Programming Interface (API) for building ANT™ System on Chip (SoC) solutions for the nRF52832 chip. The S212 SoftDevice simplifies combining the ANT™ protocol stack and an application on the same CPU.
• S332 SoftDevice
  The S332 SoftDevice is a combined ANT™ and Bluetooth low energy (BLE) protocol stack solution. It supports all four Bluetooth low energy roles (Central, Peripheral, Observer, Broadcaster) and ANT.

¹ SDK 0.9.x is compatible with nRF52 series only.

² If workaround for anomaly 73 is implemented, nRF5 SDK 11.0.0 can be used for development purposes together with SoftDevice S132 2.0.0/S212 0.9.x/S332 0.9.x on nRF52832 Engineering B. For more information, see nRF52 Engineering B Errata or nRF5 SDK 11.0.0 release notes.
