Hello
I got to know that we can improve the bluetooth capability of Raspberry pi 3 using QCA4020.
I have Raspberry pi 3 and Qualcomm QCA4020, but i don't know how to replace raspberry pi beacon by QCA4020, there is no any documention.
can you please provide help on it.

You can refer to Design package under Hardware Docs of 4020/4024 for pin connection between Raspberry PI and QCA4020

We don't have any documentation on connection sequence, however we support SPI/ I2C/ I2S/ UART/ SDIO communication between arduino shield and QCA4020. You need to develop a custom application to communicate between Raspberry pi 3 and QCA4020 stack to repalce bluetooth beacons.
