UART data sending issue in custom board using nRF52832

Hi,

We are doing a project on nRF52832 which uses UART for QR-code sensor, I2C for OLED and SPI for external flash.

The code works fine as expected when tested in nRF52832  DK (PCA10040), and we have designed a new PCB for our project.

Now we are testing the new board . While testing we have found something strange.

Now the OLED, EXTERNAL FLASH and QR-code sensor works fine, we can scan QR code and save it in the external flash and display contents on OLED based on commands received via BLE.

But we are unable to debug the code. ie, Printf doesnt send data in to the serial console.

After further testing for hardware issues we have found that UART peripheral example is working fine in the new board, we can send and receive data via serial console.

Its bit confusing and looks strange. Is there any suggestion to rectify it.

Another issue found that when ble commands are send to the device device reboots and Bluetooth gets disconnected. Actually debugging is not possible now due to the UART issue mentioned earlier.

We are using SES v5.42a

SDK version 17.0.2.

Chip  used MS50FB-nRF52832 from MiNew

Any help would be appreciated

thanks & regards
