Nordic nRF boards (``microbit``)
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
The `Nordic nRF`_ chips are a family of ARM-based System-on-Chip that
|
|
are designed to be used for low-power and short-range wireless solutions.
|
|
|
|
.. _Nordic nRF: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products
|
|
|
|
The nRF51 series is the first series for short range wireless applications.
|
|
It is superseded by the nRF52 series.
|
|
The following machines are based on this chip :
|
|
|
|
- ``microbit`` BBC micro:bit board with nRF51822 SoC
|
|
|
|
There are other series such as nRF52, nRF53 and nRF91 which are currently not
|
|
supported by QEMU.

|
|
The Micro:bit machine can be started using the ``-device`` option to load a
|
|
firmware in `ihex format`_. Example:
|
|
|
|
.. _ihex format: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_HEX
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ qemu-system-arm -M microbit -device loader,file=test.hex
