nRF52810
A Bluetooth 5 SoC for everybody
The nRF52810 is the third member of the nRF52 Series SoCs.
It features a powerful CPU (ARM Cortex-M4), and together with
the nRF52840 and nRF52832 it completes a lineup of Nordic’s
Bluetooth 5 ready devices that together offer the full spectrum of
possibilities when designing
Bluetooth
®
5 into your products.
The nRF52810 supports key Bluetooth 5 features of high
throughput (2Mbps) and increased broadcast capacity with
advertising extensions (x 8), as an optimized solution that makes it
attractive in a very wide range of applications from a performance
and minimal Bill of Material (BOM) perspective.
The nRF52810 and all nRF52 Series are flash-based SoCs and as
such, fully support over the air firmware upgrades.
Stand-alone performance or network processor
The nRF52810 uses the same hardware and software architecture
as other nRF52 Series SoCs. This means migration between
the nRF52 Series is straightforward and simple. It uses the
ARM Cortex-M4 CPU and is capable of supporting demanding
performance requirements.
The nRF52810 has a reduced feature set compared to nRF52840
and nRF52832 and is an ideal compromise between advanced
performance and functionality and cost. The nRf52810 is ideal for
middle to lower tier applications and is the perfect companion
network processor when adding Bluetooth 5 connectivity to
designs that employ a significantly bigger main application
processor to perform their function.
Bluetooth 5 – More speed, less energy
The nRF52810 supports two of the three flagship features of
Bluetooth 5, high Throughput Mode and Advertising Extensions.
High throughput doubles the on-air data rate to 2Mbs offering
new use cases and up to a 50% saving in energy usage.
Advertising Extensions offers significant increases in broadcasting
capacity (x8) for broadcast applications, including beacons.
Maximum re-use and easy migration
The nRF52810 has binary compatible peripherals with other
devices in the nRF52 and nRF51 Series for most functions. The
common hardware and software architectures mean use and
porting of existing code is straightforward, allowing developers to
re-use firmware libraries they have developed previously with ease.

nRF52810 Product Brief Version 1.0
OTA DFU
The nRF52810 is supported by and Over-The-Air Firmware
upgrades (OTA DFU) feature. This allows for in the field updates of
application software and SoftDevices.
Nordic SoftDevices
Nordic protocol stacks are called SoftDevices, and complement
the nRF52 Series SoCs. SoftDevices are qualified, pre-compiled
and link-free libraries and can be downloaded from Nordic
Semiconductor. SoftDevices reside in separate memory space to
the application and are interfaced by their API making application
development simpler and more predictable.
The S132 SoftDevice is compatible with the nRF52810 and the
nRF52832 SoCs. It supports Bluetooth 5 high throughput feature
(2Mbps) and all Bluetooth roles. S132 can support up to 20 concurrent
links in various role combinations and has configurable bandwidth
settings to optimize connection throughput and energy efficiency.
Power Profiler Kit
The Power Profiler Kit is an affordable and valuable tool for
accurate measurement of energy usage whilst developing you
application. It connects directly to the nRF52 DK and has software
that allows detailed monitor and measurement on a PC.
