nRF9160

Nordicsemi nRF9160 is an ARM Cortex-M33 SiP (system in package) with support for LTE-M, NB-IoT and GPS.

This demo app establishes a connection to an HTTP server using Nordic BSD sockets.

This app does not require zephyr, instead it uses MDEPX RTOS.

Note: The latest modem firmware (version 1.3.3) is required.

Note: This was tested on nRF9160-DK v1.1.0 and nRF9161-DK v1.0.0.

For nRF9160-DK connect micro usb cable to J4 usb socket.

For nRF9161-DK use USB-C connector.

This app depends on the secure bootloader for nRF9160.
