BoSL Board nRF9161

This is a temporary page to discuss an upgraded version of the BoSLboard where the AVR/SIM7000 stack is replaced with a nRF9161.

The nRF9161 is an evolution of the nRF9160 and its main advantage for our applications is the ability to perform PSM on roaming networks [1]

In terms of loading applications onto this new board. It seems possible to use MCUboot to upload new firmwares over UART [2][3][4]. Though the specifics, I am not yet sure of.

Flowing this guide [5] has been very useful. With it I have been able to update the firmware on the nRF9160, though the last step about confirming the image is throwing an error so I am unable to keep the updated firmware after reset. This seems like a small hurdle however and I am happy that I have been able to load a new program via UART.
