The S132
SoftDevice is a Bluetooth®
Low Energy Central and Peripheral protocol stack solution. It supports up to
twenty connections with an additional observer and a broadcaster role all running
concurrently. The S132 SoftDevice integrates a Bluetooth Low Energy Controller and Host, and provides a full and flexible API for building Bluetooth Low Energy nRF52 System on Chip
solutions.
