Micro Controller Selection

16 May 2017

Hello,

I am new to this forum and hardware world in general. I do apologise I am asking for something very obvious.

I am in process of creating a prototype to control some leds (NeoPixel) via iPhone. And for that I have used RFDuino in the prototype phase, but its not very cost effective.

As RfDuino internally uses Nordic NRF51822 chip, I was wondering if I can use the chip directly on my pcb.

I was thinking of using NRF51822 S130, will it provide me with the same set of features i.e 1) bluettoh conectivity 2) Receiving data from iphone/andriod 3) running leds

Much appreciate your suggestions.

Best
