Laptop mouse
The Laptop mouse reference design is based on a nRF52810. The nRF52810 is a low-cost device of our nRF52 Series. This makes basic nRF52 Series features available and enables you to choose a cost-optimized design. The hardware and firmware layout is made for our nRF52810, the nRF52811, or the nRF52832 SoC in a QFN package. The laptop mouse features three buttons and a wheel.

Dongle
Key features
The dongle included in the reference design is based on our nRF52840 Dongle. It comes preloaded with corresponding firmware. We offer alternative reference layouts and firmware for dongle variants based on our nRF52833 and nRF52820 SoCs. It uses Bluetooth 5 to connect to the other HID devices. This results in enhanced security, radio performance, and better power consumption. The dongle embeds Bluetooth 5 to HID USB, so the user can plug in the dongle and start using the keyboard and mouse without setup. The devices are paired out of the box on first use. The software is preinstalled on the dongle for out of the box plug and play experience. For the development of a dongle, we recommend using the nRF52833 DK. This allows you to use the debug interface on the DK.
- Bluetooth LE (used for connection to the keyboard, laptop mouse, and gaming mouse)
- Supports LLPM for 1-4 concurrent connections with LLPM-capable devices (for example the Gaming Mouse) to deliver down to 1 ms report rate. (LLPM is only available on nRF52833 and nRF52840)
- 8 dBm TX power
- Application controlled RGB LED
- Application controlled button used for pairing
- Button dedicated for programming
- USB HID
- DFU
- AES 128 and all Bluetooth 5 security features
