BLE Scan Request Filter Demo

This blog is to show how to add the scan request filter on the BLE advertiser. In BLE (bluetooth Low Energy), basically, it has two difference modes on the scanning mode. On the BLE observer, it can be either passive scanning or active scanning. If the observer plays as the active scanning, it would send … Continue reading BLE Scan Request Filter Demo →

Radio Timeslot API for the Multiple Protocols

This blog is to describe more details how to use the Radio Timeslot API usage. The Radio Timeslot API was introduced since Nordic Softdevice S110v6.0 or later. It can be used to implement the concurrent multiprotocol with BLE together. All the timeslot API are based on the framework of Nordic Bluetooth Softdevice stack. For example, … Continue reading Radio Timeslot API for the Multiple Protocols →

How to configure the number of packets per every BLE connection interval

This blog is to show the method how to configure the number of packets per each connection interval. Basically, it is very similar to the blog (https://jimmywongiot.com/2019/12/15/how-to-set-the-bandwidth-on-ble-link-connection/). I would give more details how to achieve for example 3 packet per connection interval. 3 packets per each connection interval Suppose on the Nordic nRF5 SDK, it … Continue reading How to configure the number of packets per every BLE connection interval →

Step by Step to Compile Nordic NRF5 HIDs Keyboard / Mouse Example on nRF Connect SDK

This blog is to describe how to compile and run the nRF5 HIDs Keyboard example from nRF Connect SDK. nRF Connect SDK The nRF Connect SDK is where you begin building low power wireless applications with Nordic Semiconductor nRF52, nRF53, and nRF91 Series devices.
