I'm using the Basic BLE Peripheral project and I want to know if I can use OAD with it. If yes, what are the steps to add OAD to the Peripheral project?

Hello Navami,
The current OAD example we have (on-chip, off-chip and dual image) build on top of the basic_ble example. Please look into the following section of our User`s Guide for more information about it: MCUBoot Over-the-Air Download (OAD).
Please find the project examples inside the SDK: <SDK>\examples\rtos\LP_EM_CC2340R5\ble5stack.
You can also take a look at out training material: Bluetooth Low Energy - Over the Air Download (OAD) Fundamentals.
Hope this helps.
David.
Hi David,
Thanks for your reply.
I was going through the example and found that the off-chip example uses external flash to store the image. In our case, we are using only internal flash, not external flash. Therefore, we can use either the on-chip or dual image example.
Now, my question is: what is the difference between the on-chip and dual image example? Also, it is mentioned that the on-chip example needs a persistent application. What is this for?
Hi,
I recommend referencing the MCUBoot Over-the-Air Download (OAD) chapter of the User's Guide as it describes how MCUBoot works and the different OAD configurations. I would also specifically recommend the following sections as they contain more specific details on the differences between on-chip and dual-image.

Hi,
I have one CC2340R5 EVB, and I need to run the dual image example code and test it through the SimpleLink app.
I referred to this https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=A__AbMoFvWD.bZAg65tD.7NsQ__SIMPLELINK-ACADEMY-CC23XX__gsUPh5j__LATEST, and it mentioned that we need two launchpads. But in SDK/examples/rtos/LP_EM_CC2340R5/ble5stack/basic_ble_oad_dual_image/README.html here its not mentioned anything.
Please confirm this and share the relevant document to run Dual Image OAD.
