nRF54L15 Development Kit (nRF54L15-DK)
OVERVIEW
The nRF54L15 DK (Development Kit) features the nRF54L15 wireless SoC (System-on Chip) and can emulate the nRF54L10, and nRF54L05 wireless SoCs. The affordable DK makes all features available to the developer on a single board.
The nRF54L15 DK is fully supported by the nRF Connect SDK and the comprehensive set of nRF Connect tools. nRF Connect for Desktop includes the Quick Start tool for easy board setup. Nordic Developer Academy is an interactive online learning platform with free hands-on courses designed to equip developers with the necessary technical knowledge and skills to work with Nordic’s solutions and guide developers through the
onboarding process. Developers can explore the full potential of the nRF54L15 using the extensive range of software samples, modules, and libraries available within the nRF Connect SDK.
nRF54L15, nRF54L10, and nRF54L05 make up the nRF54L Series. All wireless SoCs in the series integrate an ultra-low-power multiprotocol 2.4 GHz radio and MCU (Microcontroller Unit) functionality featuring a 128 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 processor, comprehensive peripheral set, and scalable memory configurations up to 1.5 MB NVM and up to 256 KB RAM.
Ultra-low power consumption is enabled with Nordic proprietary technologies such as low-leakage RAM and design expertise utilized in the advanced multiprotocol radio. With lower power consumption, the nRF54L Series enables improved battery lifetime or reduced battery size.
Designed with versatility in mind, the nRF54L Series wireless SoC options are suited to enable a broad range of applications. The multiprotocol 2.4 GHz radio supports Bluetooth® Low Energy, Bluetooth Mesh, Thread, Matter, Zigbee, Amazon Sidewalk, and 2.4 GHz proprietary protocols with up to 4 Mbps data rate. The radio is also capable of Bluetooth 6.0, including Bluetooth Channel Sounding.
nRF54L Series wireless SoCs are available in a range of memory and package configurations, including pin-to-pin compatible options. The right-sized device for an application can be selected, supporting cost optimization of projects and flexibility late in the design cycle.
