CONFIG_NBLE:

Note: This feature is deprecated and will be removed in a future Zephyr version.

Enables support for using Nordic Semiconductor nRF51 Bluetooth LE chips with a custom firmware. The API for this is a subset of the normal Bluetooth API (include/bluetooth/). This driver can only be enabled if CONFIG_BLUETOOTH has not been enabled.

A fundamental assumption that the driver makes is that it is run on an architecture with the same ABI (e.g. struct packing & endianess) as the nRF51 chip. The driver cannot be used on any architecture that doesn’t fulfill this requirement.
