Introducing Raytac's nRF54L15 AT Command Module Series – Pre-loaded firmware with Lower Power Consumption

 [CA, USA/Taipei, Taiwan]


Raytac Group, a worldwide leader in wireless modules, wireless solutions, and a Nordic-recommended third-party module manufacturer, is pleased to announce the official release of the AN54LQ-AT and AN54LV-AT series, our newest Bluetooth® Low Energy AT Command modules built upon Nordic Semiconductor's nRF54L15 ultra-low-power wireless SoC.

Designed for engineers who want to integrate BLE quickly and easily, the AT Command series comes with pre-loaded peripheral (slave) role firmware, enabling straightforward UART communication with a host MCU through simple AT Commands.
Built on Nordic's next-generation nRF54L15 SoC, the series delivers exceptional power efficiency, reducing power consumption by approximately 50% compared to previous-generation nRF52-based AT Command modules.


The nRF54L15 AT Command family is available in five variants to satisfy different RF and mechanical requirements.

AN54LQ Series
- Ceramic chip antenna: AN54LQ-AT (Click here for full product details)
- PCB trace antenna: AN54LQ-PAT (Click here for full product details)
- u.FL connector for external antenna: AN54LQ-UAT (Click here for full product details)

AN54LV Series
- Ceramic chip antenna: AN54LV-AT (Click here for full product details)
- PCB trace antenna: AN54LV-PAT (Click here for full product details)

AT Command Development Kit
- AN54LQ Series: AN54LQ-AT-UART-S (Click here for full product details)
- AN54LV Series AN54LV-AT-UART-S (Click here for full product details)


The standard AN54LQ family measures only 9.5 × 13.7 × 1.8 mm, while the AN54LV family further reduces the footprint to just 6.4 × 8.4 × 1.5 mm, making it an excellent choice for wearable devices, portable products, industrial sensors, medical devices, and other space-constrained applications.

Engineers can integrate Bluetooth communication(peripheral role) into an existing MCU platform without implementing the Bluetooth LE protocol or maintaining a Bluetooth LE firmware stack.

Acting as a seamless bridge between the host MCU and Bluetooth devices, the AT Command module enables easy wireless communication without any complexity of firmware development.

1. Hardware Environment Setup
The required equipments are as follows:

  • 1 x Nordic nRF54L15-DK: PCA10156(1.0.0)
  • 1 x AN54LV-DB-15 (Raytac nRF54L15 module Development Board)
  • 1 x IDC Ribbon Cable
  • 2 x USB Type-C Connection Cables

* Reminder: The "Nordic nRF54L15-DK" and "Raytac AN54LV-DB-15 Development Board" must be used together to proceed with application development and flashing firmware into the Raytac AN54LV-DB-15 development board.

Setup Steps:
Step 1: Connect the J-Link on the Nordic DK with the AN54LV-DB-15 using the IDC ribbon cable.



Make sure to match the red side of the IDC ribbon cable with "1" printed on the AN54LV-DB-15's J-Link socket.


Step 2: Use the Type-C USB cables to supply power to both the nRF54L15-DK and the AN54LV-DB-15.


The outcome should be same as the picture above.

2. Software Development Kit Resources and Environment Setup
Software Tool kits & Download Links:
Download nRF Connect for Desktop: Download nRF Connect For Desktop (Please Click Me)
Download nRF Command Line Tools: Download nRF Command Line Tools (Please Click Me)
Download Visual Studio Code(VS Code): Download nRF Command Line Tools (Please Click Me)

Setup Steps:
Step 1: Download the latest version of nRF Connect for Desktop. Choose the Windows 64-bit - version 5.3.1 installer (nrfconnect-setup-5.3.1-x64.exe). Once finished, you will see " nRF Connect for Desktop" on your PC.

Step 2: Download the latest version of nRF Command Line Tools. Choose the Windows X86 64 - version 10.24.2 installer (nrf-command-line-tools-10.24.2-x64.exe)

* Reminder: During the installation of the above two programs, a window may pop up prompting that SEGGER J-LINK needs to be installed or updated concurrently.

If you’re initiating Segger Embedded Studio (SES) application, please check the guideline here(Click me)\


Step 3: Download the latest version of Visual Studio Code (VS Code). Choose Windows VSCodeUserSetup-x64 version 1.122 (VSCodeUserSetup-x64-1.122.1.exe). Once complete, you will see "Visual Studio Code" on your PC.

Step 4: After installation is complete, you can verify the installed packages in your PC's Control Panel under "Programs and Features":



3. Software/Firmware Application Development
You can develop application programs within the VS Code IDE development environment.
Below steps are how to install and select your target SDK version (nRF Connect SDK v3.3.0 in this article):

Step 1: Launch "VS Code"-> Select "nRF Connect" icon/extension on the side menu.


Click "Manage SDKs" and then select "Install SDK".


Step 2: Select "nRF Connect SDK".


Step 3: You will see several available versions of nRF Connect SDK vx.x.x. It is highly recommended to choose and install NCS v3.3.0 or later. In this guide, we select nRF Connect SDK(NCS) v3.3.0.


Step 4: Before starting the download for (NCS)v3.3.0, confirm your preferred target installation pathway.
By default, it is configured to c:\ncs\v3.3.0. Press 'Enter' to confirm.


Step 5: Once the nRF Connect SDK v3.3.0 environment setup finishes successfully, open the Bluetooth sample folder and select the "peripheral_uart" application template, then click "Open".


Step 6: In the "nRF Connect" layout, go to "Applications" --> "Add build configuration".


Under "Board target", look up and select "nrf54l15dk/nrf54l15/cpuapp" --> "Generate and Build".


* Note: You can also choose the board name “raytac_an54lv_db_15/nrf54l15/cpuapp” for subsequent building and development.


After completing the configuration, you will see "Build complete".


Step 7: Compilation completed. Once completed, a binary file named "zephyr.hex" will be generated in your "build" directory.


Step 8: Under the "ACTIONS" interface, you can switch between Build, Debug, and Flash functionalities dynamically.

Build


Debug


Flash


Step 9: CRITICAL BEFORE FLASHING/DEBUGGING: You have to change the VDD voltage configuration on the nRF54L15-DK board to 3.3V.

To do this: Launch "nRF Connect for Desktop" -> choose "Board Configurator" -> click "Open"


Change the VDD target selection value to "3.3V" -> click "Write config".



4. Flashing / Programming
The nRF Connect SDK (NCS) natively supports direct programming.
You can utilize the "Programmer" application tool to flash the compiled zephyr.hex binary file onto the target chip.
The exact procedure is detailed below:

Step 1: Open "nRF Connect for Desktop" -> select "Programmer" and click "Open".


Click "Select Device" and choose "nRF54L15DK".


Click "Add file".


Step 2: Select your compiled target ".hex" file.


Click "Erase & write" to initiate the programming/flashing process.


While flashing, a progress diagonal pattern will display on the right-hand panel.


When the LOG shows a "completed" status text, it means that the programming/flashing is successfully done.


Step 3: After the flash operation completes, you can download the "nRF Connect for Mobile" app to scan and verify that the Raytac AN54LV-DB-15 development board is advertising normally.

Product Change Notice (PCN-26041701) on Raytac MDBT40 module's Chip Antenna Replacement

  New Taipei, Taiwan / Los Angeles, USA, 04/23/2026


Raytac announces a Product Change Notice (PCN-26041701) for below modules, change effective on the Date Codes stated within.

Device Affected:
1. MDBT40-256RV3: 618 and after
2. MDBT40-256V3: 618 and after

The supplier(of the original chip antenna) notified Raytac in March 2026 that the original chip antenna has reached its end-of-life (EOL) status, thus the introduction of an alternative(new) chip antenna from the same supplier to ensure long term supply continuity.

There are no changes on Form, Fit, Function, and Quality of Reliability.  Only change in Chip Antenna Appearance.

Upon receiving this notice, our R&D team promptly conducted comprehensive validation. The results confirm that there is no impact on RF performance, EMC compliance, or related certifications. 

In conclusion, all existing certifications and technical documentations remain valid.




The change is already effective as the existing inventory of the original chip antenna has been depleted. All production batches are already using the new chip antenna.

We kindly invite our customers, distributors, and partners to update your records accordingly.
For any questions or support, and further document requests regarding this update, feel free to reach out to Raytac Sales Team via: sales@raytac.com.
