nRF5 action!

@Nca78
Here's the board settings that I use:
-
Like NeverDie I am also having some trouble getting started with the NRF5 programming.
Here is my setup:
The problem "No valid JTAG Interface Configured":
Did I miss some step to configure the J-Link somewhere?
-
I've always used the IDC connector. I'm not sure that it works if you don't.
-
@korttoma I have the same problem with the official jlink drivers. So I drag/drop the hex file from output directory to the Jlink drive at the moment.
-
@nca78 that worked! thank you thank you thank you!
My first NFR5 node is ALIVE!
-
@neverdie said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
I've always used the IDC connector.
i.e. the 10-pin connector.
-
@neverdie thank you for pointing to the power problem. I had one jumper left for my adapter to connect GND to GND and "as usual" it had a contact problem, I just replaced it and I can see the module in nRFgo Studio, even without external power.
-
Question;
I've been using the Ebyte modules and I'm making progress. But somehow the energy consumption is far too much. 11,7 mA when I use a clean sketch with hwSleep().
When I change to "Normal" Sleep() I get 0.1mA.
which one should be the right one to use, keeping in mind, I would like to wake up from an interrupt.
-
@omemanti sleep. See https://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_20#sleeping for details.
-
@Mika what is your experience regarding battery consumption on these?
I put together a sketch witch seems to work fine but one CR2032 just lasts a couple of days.
Sketch:

I noticed that the chip sais:
N51822
QFABC0
1646UUQFAB translates to 16kB RAM, 128kB flash and I can not even select this option in the arduino IDE. Can this be the problem?
@d00616 refer to his document for some high current consumption issue but I'm not sure what to do with the info.
Is there something wrong with my sketch or is there just an old crappy chip on the device??
-
Same result, battery out within few days, I want to do a check of current consumption, but not yet free time...
I want to try this:
https://github.com/ThingPulse/ESP8266PowerMonitor
https://thingpulse.com/2018/02/25/esp8266-monitoring-power-consumption/
-
@korttoma have you tried the code @NeverDie put together using the LPCOMP ? With a QFAAH0 (which I believe is the same version than QFABC0, but with 256K flash) he went down to something like 4Β΅A.
From the document you link, anomaly 70, it will be necessary to add an extra wait of 36us after that line, it's strange that @NeverDie never had any problem with it. Or maybe I misunderstand the documentvoid activateLpComp() { ... while (!(NRF_LPCOMP->EVENTS_READY)) {} //wait until ready ... }
Test code from @NeverDie using LPCOMP is here:
https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/6961/nrf5-bluetooth-action/1307I will try it on my board (using a module with QFAAH0) tomorrow, if power consumption is as low as expected I'll try on the beacon board.
[Edit] Just checked quickly my "beacon" board and it's using a QFAAH1 chip (made in 2017), so the test might not be relevant...
-
I don't remember. I've lately been using LoRa modules, plus getting distracted by CNC, so my nRF5 work has been on hold. I'm hoping that d00616 continues to work on the software though so that more than one nRF5 interrupt can be active at a time.
-
@nca78 thanks for the hint.
I tried to merge my sketch with the code provided by @NeverDie but I can not seem to get it to detect my button and I don't quite understand where I should attach my button that is on pin 28 to the interrupt thingie.

I thought that I should do it like this:
void activateLpComp() { NRF_LPCOMP->PSEL=28; // monitor AIN3 (pin P0.02 on nRF51822 for coincell_multisensor_v10) while (!(NRF_LPCOMP->PSEL==28)) {} //wait until confirmed
But then it does not seem to run the loop anymore because I do not get the 10s blink.

Guys, help me understand: when do I need to enable DC-DC?
My breakout board consists of Ebyte module and a couple of buttons. Battery is CR2450 directly connected to the module.
Do I need DC-DC?
-
@toyman With DC-DC, it uses roughly half the current during Tx and Rx. Seems like a no brainer to me, but you don't literally "need" to have it. I'm not aware of any downsides to it.
-
@neverdie thx. What is needed hardware-wise? Two inductors between dc and dec4? Like in your breakout board?
-
@toyman Correct. You can review the schematic for this project: https://www.openhardware.io/view/472/Ebyte-nRF52832-Prototyping-Board
-
I guess this is why I cant get LPCOMP to work on the device.
Eight input options (AIN0 to AIN7)
I would have to use the analog inputs because pin 28 is just a general purpose I/O pin.
-
ebyte module is currently on sale at roughly $2.5
Total bargain!
-
@korttoma using MySensors NRF5 boards you should be able to assign one AINx pin to physical pin 28.
The index you need to put in the code is the AIN index not the pin number.
-
@nca78 sorry but I cannot figure out how to do this. Should I do it in the MyBoardNRF5.cpp, MyBoardNRF5.h or in the sketch?
-
@korttoma sorry I said stupid things as I'm a beginner too, you can't reassign analog inputs and LPCOMP to different pins on NRF5 chips.
-
@nca78 it is ok, I think I will have to set up a test system with a different device with witch I can measure current consumption, attach serial logging and then try to fiddle with the code. I'm flying in the dark with this bluetooth beacon device since I cannot access any pins.
-
@neverdie thx. Why don't you have a capacitor between DEC4 to GND? I can see only 2 inductors, while Nordic power guidelines prescribe an LC filter between DCC and DEC, ie inductors and a capacitor. nrf52dk also has it.
-
@toyman I guess I made an error then. Thanks for pointing that out. In general, I haven't gotten much feedback on the PCB's that I've posted, so any feedback is always appreciated.
-
@neverdie Question is, did the DC/DC still work without the cap?
-

@neverdie Question is, did the DC/DC still work without the cap?
I believe it did. If you look at: https://www.openhardware.io/view/471/Ebyte-nRF52832-Small-Breakout-Board
which has the inductors soldered on, I believe that is the one that I tested. Enough time has passed though that I can't be 100% sure now. I made a number of different variations, and I didn't post all of them.
-

I used your schematic for a PCB I ordered yesterday :), did saw the post about the cap until it was too late
part of the game!Edit: according to your post https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/6961/nrf5-bluetooth-action/797 it did work
-
@nca78 said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
I will try it on my board (using a module with QFAAH0) tomorrow, if power consumption is as low as expected I'll try on the beacon board.
@NeverDie I have tried the sketch nearly unchanged (only changed to lines because I use pin P0.01 so AIN2) and my current consumption is a bit over 30uA, do you have any idea of what I should check ? (I tried with both versions 0.1 and 0.3 of MySensors NRF5 boards).
At the moment my board only has a led and a DRV5032FB (<<1uA) in addition to the nrf51 module.
-
Just to close the loop on DC-DC:
Figure 2
-
@nca78 said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
do you have any idea of what I should check ?
Have you tried disabling serial?

Unsure then.

At the moment my board only has a led and a DRV5032FB (<<1uA) in addition to the nrf51 module.Ok, case closed, it was just because the SWD pins were still connected to my NRF52 DK. When I just connect VCC and GND it's down to something a bit below 5uA. I'm using a multimeter and DK is at 2.8V so real consumption will be a bit higher. But it should give me a battery life around 1year for my bedroom doors, so I'll just use my nrf51 modules for that and move to the more interesting nrf52.
-
@nca78 would you mind sharing your sketch files for your door sensors?
As I'm not a programmer and not so good at programing I usually rely on example code to get anything done. More examples gives me more understanding how things should be done.
-
@korttoma sure I will when I make them next week, I just tested with LFCOMP script from neverdie at the moment.
-
@neverdie said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
@toyman I guess I made an error then. Thanks for pointing that out.
I actually think you were correct in your design, @NeverDie
A while ago part of the e73-2g4m04s schematic was posted on this forum:
Clearly the inductors to use the DC/DC converter are not connected to DCC. There is however a capacitor C17 from DEC4 to GND.
The Nordic reference schematic shows the missing L2 and L3, but capacitor C10 is actually present in the e73-2g4m04s (the mentioned C17, albeit only 100nF instead of 1.0uF in the reference):
Therefore I think your breakout is correct, as only the inductors between DCC and DEC4 need to be added to match the reference schematic

I put together a sketch witch seems to work fine but one CR2032 just lasts a couple of days.

Is there something wrong with my sketch or is there just an old crappy chip on the device??
So I tried your code with a more recent version of the chip and I have a power consumption around 1mA.
This is not surprising because in fact issue 39 seems to not be completely fixed, if I believe this link:
https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/577/current-consumption-when-using-rtc-ppi-and-gpiote#post-id-18533"The third revision hardware of the nRF51 has a solution for the GPIOTE OUT tasks, which has very low current consumption (<1uA). The third revision nRF51 hardware will be released in a few days. The third revision hardware still does not have a solution for the GPIOTE IN events, they still consume high current, so for low current applications, use the GPIOTE PORT event instead or the app_button libary."
From what I see it was never fixed.

@gohan Gee, I don't know. Can you really afford $2.55?
-
I don't know if it is a good one and I already have a bunch of stuff I bought still in the drawer
-
@gohan For the price, it's good. I like Fanstel's better, but they have fewer exposed pins and cost more.
-

@gohan you mean programmer? Nothing beats DK with jlink.
Other options: jlink EDU, DIY BlackMagicProbe or STLink
-
ok, I bought 2 of the nrf52 at half the price, now what would be the cheap solution among the programmers? Jlink is on the pricy side.

Cheap jlink clones with 4 wires from AliExpress/Ebay seem to work. So does the ST-Link v2 which is probably the cheapest option.

I got kind of lost with all those jlink clones with so many different versions. The ST-Link V2 I found it on digikey and similar sites for around 18/19β¬, is it the right one?
-
@gohan I use both the ST-LinkV2 (2 dollars from eBay) and the NRF52832-DK both work like a charm.
-
@gohan LOL, i need to stop buying these things, got 12 just waiting to be used.. but at this price, its almost impossible to not buy them

Don't do that. Either buy $2 clones or invest into DK or:

Is this one ok? https://www.ebay.it/itm/ST-Link-V2-Programming-Unit-mini-STM8-STM32-Emulator-Downloader-M89/122178354704?hash=item1c7265be10:g:xx4AAOSwm7pZ2Kb-
NRF52832-DK is kind of way over budget
-
@gohan sure, I bought some of those. Works great. One crashed so now I bought a couple, just to be sure..

@nca78 said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
So I tried your code with a more recent version of the chip and I have a power consumption around 1mA.
This is not surprising because in fact issue 39 seems to not be completely fixed, if I believe this link:
https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/577/current-consumption-when-using-rtc-ppi-and-gpiote#post-id-18533"The third revision hardware of the nRF51 has a solution for the GPIOTE OUT tasks, which has very low current consumption (<1uA). The third revision nRF51 hardware will be released in a few days. The third revision hardware still does not have a solution for the GPIOTE IN events, they still consume high current, so for low current applications, use the GPIOTE PORT event instead or the app_button libary."
From what I see it was never fixed.
Took time but after failure trying to make a version by myself I decided to include app_gpiote library from SDK in my script and it works, it's using around 1uA more than LPCOMP (I measure 5.5 uA with my multimeter) but it can use any pin and in theory any number of pins without increasing power consumption.
The behavior is similar to pin change interrupt on ATMega328, you have one interrupt for all the pins you are watching, so you have to check which pin generated the interrupt but app_gpiote is preparing the work for you.
I have this consumption with a similar script than @Neverdie for LPCOMP: using MySensors with MY_CORE_ONLY, preparing the interrupt then calling the sleep(ms) function from MySensors library, and it works as expected changing status of led immediately when I change status of pin, and waking up at the end of the interval if I don't.
I'll do more tests tomorrow including a full MySensors script, and post the info here. It needs a bunch of files from SDK and adding a (weak) attribute to GPIOTE_IRQHandler() in sandeepmistry's code so it can be overridden in the script.

I bought some of those. Works great
Do you use them with windows?
I tried to get them to program an nrf52832, but openocd in Arduino ide under windows doesn't detect them...
Both stlinks work in Linux.
-
@yveaux I have used a ST-Link v2 (clone) on Windows 7, didn't run into any problems.
-
@mfalkvidd from the arduino ide? Did you follow any guide or remember specific settings?
-
@yveaux yes from the Arduino IDE. I just followed this guide.
-
I did follow https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-BLEPeripheral as well (for a non-MySensors use case). Not sure which one I did first.
-
@mfalkvidd hmmm... No specific mention of any st-link stuff to configure. Must be me then
I just wanted to try some ST-links I ordered.
Ah well, I'll give it another try and otherwise go back to my j-link, which works flawlessly.Thanks anyway!
-
@yveaux jup, both work on Windows . I had to install the right drivers using zadig.
I only use the Arduino IDE for uploading, just select the st-link and it works.
-
@omemanti ok, thanks for the feedback. I'll give that a try then
-
@omemanti yup, installed WinUSB driver with Zadig and worked instantly! Thanks again!
-
@yveaux I have messed with some SDR dongles and might have installed WinUSB with Zadig earlier to get the SDR to work.
-
@mfalkvidd yeah, now you tell me
-
So I made a version of script with MySensors library, it's not a final version and needs some cleaning and improvements but it seems to work well (I didn't test so much yet :)) and shows basic usage. Comments should be enough to understand what to change to adapt to your board. Current script is for my board:
- BUTTON_1 on pin 1, it's a hall sensor for door so no pullup and sensing on up=>down and down=>up changes
- BUTTON_2 on pin 3, push button with pullup and debouncing, sensing only on up=>down when button is pressed. At the moment it just makes some light blinking to show it's detected.
- led on pin 2.
I join the main script file and the MyBoardNRF5 files, for using with MyBoardNRF5 nrf51822. Files to include are described in the main script file, but don't forget to add a weak attribute in the WInterrupt.c file before the GPIOTE_IRQHandler so it can be overridden.
__attribute__ ((weak)) void GPIOTE_IRQHandler()
On my Windows PC this file is in C:\Users[your user name]\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\sandeepmistry\hardware\nRF5\0.5.1\cores\nRF5

As an example, if you need to change the pin mapping for Arduino pin 5 to P0.12 of the MCU, you have to write the 12 after PORT0 into the sixth position in the "g_APinDescription" Array. The extended attributes only affects the nRF5 variants provided with official Arduino boards. The arduino-nrf5 variant ignores the extended attributes.

I'm struggling to get my EByte NRF52 to work. I'm on a mac, so it should be easy..
I installed the two boards in the Arduino IDE.
https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-nRF5
https://github.com/mysensors/ArduinoBoardsThen I carefully soldered some wires on it, and connected it to my ST-Link V2:
gnd ->gnd (in the corner)
3.3v -> vcc (in the same corner)
SWDIO -> SWDIO
SWDCLK -> SWDCLKDownloaded the example app with three files in one folder (like the post above this one)
- Main file
- MyBoardNRF5.h
- MyBoardNRF5.cpp
In Arduino I set things up:
- Board: "MyBoardNRF5 NRF52832"
- Reset: "don't enable"
- Bootloader/SD: "none"
- Low frequency clock: "RC Oscilator" (tried others too)
- Port: none
- Programmer: ST-Link V2
Then I try "sketch -> upload via programmer"
I tried to 'wipe' the chip by clicking "tools -> burn bootloader"I always get:

I found loads of things online and in this thread.
- Could it be some kind of security bit that needs to be erased?
- I also suspect I have not connected it properly? Does the board have a power / indicator LED that should light up when its connected to power? Nothing lights up currently..
- Does the STLink V2 not provide enough power?
- I replaced the wires. Same problem.

STLink V2
I can't comment on the STLink V2, but if using a JTAG, you want to power the module independently from the programmer, because the programmer is meant to sense the voltage there more than to supply it. Maybe worth a try? Looking back, I've often thought it may be the reason why my early attempts with the STlink V2 failed. At least it's something you can look into while you wait for the cavalry to come rescue you.
Also, not sure as to whether running on a Mac is a good idea.

W00t! Hurray! Nevermind. I just tried my other module, and that one worked fine!

I had to do "burn bootloader" once to remove the security. And then it worked!
Hmm "reset enable" is still turned on. What does that do exactly?
-
Glad you found the breakout board useful. I hesitated to post it, thinking it might be too "easy," and it never did get many likes.
-
@neverdie: yes very useful! I was thinking I should buy some, and wanted to explore which ones could be bought without a credit card (Europe..).
Perhaps you can entice some Chinese manuafacturer to put create a lot of them and then sell them on Aliexpress
-
@neverdie I think these are your design? Bought some when I was ordering some other stuff from Pcbway but haven't gotten around to using them yet.
-
Yup. Those little boards are really quite handy.
Thanks for the photo!
-
Nice indeed. I was just about to order some of those breakouts after receiving 4 Ebyte modules (β¬8 total).
But just to make sure (I didn't read the complete thread...), the capacitors for DEC1, DEC3 and DEC4 are already present on the Ebyte module, so no need to add these on your breakout, @NeverDie ?
-
No need to add anything not already on the board.
-
You could add some inductors for dcdc mode
-
@omemanti Yes I will. This is a long thread to catch up ;-), but I did find that the latest revision of the breakout added room for the inductors to use the DCDC mode.
I guess it takes some more reading & doing to get the firmware loaded on those Ebyte modules, but as others did that already I'm confident that that will be ok!
It will be my first nRF52 application.

I'm working on a gesture sensor connected to a Fanstell BT832 via I2C. It is a Sparkfun APDS9960 breakout I have had lying around for a while. Unfortunately I can't get my sketch to compile. It gives 'Wire' was not declared in this scope.
Wire.h is included in the library and in the sketch. I'm using MyBoardNRF5 for an NRF52832. Using Arduino 1.8.3 on Windows 10.
There is a wire library in:
\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\sandeepmistry\hardware\nRF5\0.5.1\libraries\Wire
Which I think is the one that this sketch should be using.
Usually I can sort out the compile errors, but this one has me stumped.
Anyone have any suggestions?
-
@nagelc if you turn on "show verbose output during compilation+upload" in File->preferences you should get output telling which library the Arduino IDE has chosen.
The following sketch:#define MY_RADIO_NRF5_ESB #include <Wire.h> #include <MySensors.h> void setup() { } void loop() { }
Gives this result for me:
Using library Wire at version 1.0 in folder: C:\Users\Micke\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\sandeepmistry\hardware\nRF5\0.5.1\libraries\Wire Using library MySensors at version 2.3.0-alpha in folder: R:\Documents\Arduino\libraries\MySensors
-
@mfalkvidd Thanks. The verbose settings show it using the sandeepmistry library.
Wire.h works fine when I include it in my sketch. There is something about the way it is called in the Sparkfun library that fails to compile. I'll keep poking at it.
Duh . . . Found the problem!
I had left WIRE_INTERFACES_COUNT defined as 0 in MyBoardNRF5.h
It has to be #defined to 1 or more, or the sandeepmistry library doesn't extern Wire.
I looked at the SDA and SCL pin definitions in MyBoardNRF5.h, but missed setting the define for how many I2C interfaces were to be used.
Change #define WIRE_INTERFACES_COUNT 1. Now it compiles as expected.
-
This might be a silly question, but: there there a number of NRF5 smart watches available on Aliexpress, like this one. Would it theoretically be possible to turn that into a MySensors smart watch? If you had access to the programming pins, for example?
-
@alowhum Usurping control of it by uploading code wouldn't be difficult, assuming access to the programming pins. However, taking control of the screen and making good use of it might be difficult
-
yes it's doable, maybe not for those who are not smd friendly. And once opened it should be less waterproof
-
@alowhum there is a whole "movement" of people who are trying to reprogram them. Key issue is openability (how hard is to open it)
The last easily openable watches are based on nrf51822, but the good thing is that programming pins are easily accesable and even marked SWD/SCLCK.
Search Ali for ID107HR and google for "roger clark smartwatch"
I am yet to find a watch that would be both nrf52 based AND easily openable

Mark is a fantastic guy

"roger clark smartwatch"
Seems like there is hope then of accessing the screen after all. On http://www.rogerclark.net/arduino-on-the-id100hr-fitness-tracker/ it says: "Display: 0.49 inch OLED display (64Γ32 pixels) which uses the SSD1306 display controller"
-
Maybe someone here can figure out how to 3D print their own nRF52832 smart watch? i.e. one that's meant to be taken apart and put back together so that it's as good as new.
-
@neverdie read Issues section in Mark Cooks's repo referenced above. He's just committed a PR to support the display.
I need nrf52 to able to use Central role in my projects. For Mysensors nrf51 is pretty adequate if someone wants to create something like a wearable weather station
Everything is in place.
-
@toyman Seems like it has a lot of potential as an awesome notifier/remote-control that's conveniently always with you. If you succeed in getting it to work, please do post a photo and let us know!
-
Note: to hack it you need a J-Link device:

@nca78 I tried to follow your instructions in post #1514 but I must be doing something wrong when I add files from the NRF5 SDK to my sketch folder because I keep getting some errors about missing files, so I keep adding and now I got to this point:
WARNING: Spurious .ci folder in 'MySensors' library WARNING: Spurious .mystools folder in 'MySensors' library In file included from C:\Users\Tomas\Documents\Arduino\NRF5SceneCtLC2Protoboard\NRF5SceneCtLC2Protoboard.ino:4:0: nrf_gpio.h:67: error: #error "Not supported." #error "Not supported." ^ exit status 1 #error "Not supported."
-
@korttoma sorry it seems I messed up with the files, this one is not from sdk.
Please take the one here, I'll clean up and reorganize later:
https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie2-nrf-mbs/blob/master/include/nrf/nrf_gpio.h
-
@nca78 still not getting anywhere with this. Would you mind ziping your sketch folder, then I should have all the correct files (right?). If I still have issues to compile I must be missing some library or are using the wrong version of something.

Sure, but unfortunately I cannot upload a zip file here, please send me your email by private message.
Ok here is a google drive link, it should be easier:

Fortunately, there seem to be a plethora of different inexpensive nRF52832 watches available. Gobs of them.
