Using a nRF52 SoC as a RF radio.

Post by Zhey »

We are using a nRF52840 dev board (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4062) for a wireless mouse project. Using the BLE library, there's quite significant delay between packet sends (~50ms), while the rest of the code takes less than 10ms to execute. That's makes the project feels sluggish and unresponsive.

I had used a nrf24l01 radio chip before, and the delay was better with that. But it's NRND. Is it possible to use a nRF52 microprocessor as a RF radio? Has anyone attempted doing something like this before? I would be tremendously grateful for any tips/resources.
