Device ID uniqueness among different products

Hardware

Hi,

I’m about to store data on a database with one key field being the device ID.
Does someone know if this device ID is unique among different products like Photons and Borons, for instance?
Could there ever exist the same Device ID for a Boron and a Photon?

Thanks,
Gustavo.

Hi Gustavo,

Great question! You can rest assured that device IDs do not conflict, even across platforms. For STM32 based devices (e.g. Photon) this is burned in the silicon at time of manufacture. For NRF52840 based devices (e.g. Boron) we have a separate internal scheme for creating unique IDs that also does not overlap with possible STM32 IDs.

Regards,
DJ
