Hi,

I see I forgot one thing. The linker_section_placements_segments also needs to be adjusted. I have uploaded a new project file for ble_app_multilink_central for the nRF52833 DK here, which has all the changes you need: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../6837.pca10100.zip

just to add : In my opinion, “F:\nrf_sdk\DeviceDownload\nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560\nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560\examples\ble_central\ble_app_multilink_central\pca10056\s140\ses”this code is running on board 52840. I would like to run this code on board 52833. Please paste the modified differences

I am currently using the sample code in 17.1.0sdk, and have not made any changes. You can download it on the official nordic website. The code I am debugging is in the F: nrf_sdk DeviceDownload nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560 nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560 examples ble_central ble_app_multilink_central pca10056 s140 ses directory

Hi,

I don't see any obvious mistakes here. Can you show in what way this fails? And show errors?

Also, can you upload the project files here? (you can zip and drag and drop or use Insert -> Image/video/file). That way I can get a better overview, and if you incldue the full project I can test on my end. (If you do not want to share it in public you can make a private ticket and refer to this one).

According to your modifications, it is still incorrect (52840 to 52833 in Segger Embedded Studio)

hi Due to some reasons, I am unable to try it on the board at the moment. I can only paste the areas that I believe need to be modified to port the example code from 52840 to 52833 chip, as follows：

Could you please check if there are any further areas that need to be modified? I will try again on the board later and then post the results.

RE: What modifications are needed to run the example code for Nordic 52832 on 52833?

Hi,

I would not expect to see these errors. But there are some strange values here, like 32 kB RAM size, which I see is my mistake as I picked a 100100e project to copy values from and not a 100100 project.

The line should be like this (but still with project specific adjustments as needed:

      linker_section_placement_macros="FLASH_PH_START=0x0;FLASH_PH_SIZE=0x80000;RAM_PH_START=0x20000000;RAM_PH_SIZE=0x20000;FLASH_START=0x0;FLASH_SIZE=0x80000;RAM_START=0x20000000;RAM_SIZE=0x20000"

*_PH_* sizes si the total physical size. And the other start address and sizes is the remaning memory (flash and RAM) left to the application, excluding what is used by the SoftDevice.

If you still don't get it working, can you share the project files (all fiels within the project folder) so that I can take a look?

[quote user="curt_z"]I am currently porting the example code of 52832 to 52833 in Keil; On Egger Embedded Studio, the sample code of 52840 is ported to 52833. May I ask which one is better to operate?[/quote]

I would personally prefer Segger Embedded Studio as that is the IDE that we promote with resent versions of the nRF5 SDK. It is also free for use with Nordic devices, unlike Keil. It also has some additional benefits like being cross platform and a slightly more modern feel. But Keil is also a supported IDE, so you can use whichever you prefer.

hi I will configure according to what you said：“FLASH_PH_START=0x0;FLASH_PH_SIZE=0x40000;RAM_PH_START=0x20000000;RAM_PH_SIZE=0x8000;FLASH_START=0x27000;FLASH_SIZE=0x19000;RAM_START=0x20002ae8;RAM_SIZE=0x5518”；But now there are some errors：

".reserved_ram is too large to fit in RAM1 memory segment

.data_run is too large to fit in RAM1 memory segment

.bss is too large to fit in RAM1 memory segment

section .heap overlaps absolute placed section .stack

section .reserved_ram VMA wraps around address space

section .stack VMA [20002000,20003fff] overlaps section .reserved_ram VMA [20000000,00004397]"

As above,The error in the last line seems to be due to overlapping addresses. How should I modify this?

Hi,

With Keil it is easier to change the files in the GUI. But you need to do essentially the same things (change chip variant, change defines, remove startup files etc related to the old chip and add files related to the new chip, and adjust memory start addresses and sizes). It is a good idea to compare with an exmaple project for nRF52833 (there are some of those in the SDK), as it is easy to miss somethings.

Regardign the error, it looks to me like you hav emade a lot of changes but not cleaned the build folder? When you do big changes, you need to clean all before doing a re-build. If it still fails (and after you have updated everythign as outlined), can you share the full log? (You can also change the project so that I can have a look on my end.)

I also tried using Segger Embedded Studio as you suggested and changed 52840 to 52833; But I encountered the following issue during compilation

Could you please help me solve this? Also, if I use Keil, it would be more convenient for such changes compared to Egger Embedded Studio？

Now I am using the example code of sdk17.1.0 s32. After opening it with Keil, I found that it is the example code of 52832. I changed the device to nRF52833_xxAA, but after recompiling, there are still the following issues and it cannot run properly on 52833. What else do I need to do?

Rebuild started: Project: ble_app_multilink_central_pca10040_s132
*** Using Compiler 'V5.06 update 6 (build 750)', folder: 'C:\Keil_v5\ARM\ARMCC\Bin'
Rebuild target 'nrf52832_xxaa'
Note: source file 'RTE\Device\nRF52833_xxAA\system_nrf52.c' - object file renamed from '.\_build\system_nrf52.o' to '.\_build\system_nrf52_1.o'.

I am using Keil software to run the example code of 52832 or 52840 (preferably 52832) on the 52833 chip. How should I modify this?

Hi,

Based on the example name I assume you are using then nRF5 SDK? If so, which toolchain/IDE are you using?

If you are using Segger Embedded Studio (which I would recomend), the simplest is to open the .emProject file in a text exitor and search for a few terms. I would recomend starting with the nRF52840 example project to avoid confusion as several files for the nrF52832 just use "nrf52" for historic reasons. But, if you start with the nRF52840 projectyou can do the following:

search and repalce "nRF52840" with nRF52833". Note that this is case sensitive and the sarch and replace may not handle that so you may want to check each one yourself.
Replace nRF52840_xxAA with nRF52833_xxAA and nRF52840_XXAA with nRF52833_XXAA (used two places with different case, and in the latter case the case matters as it is a preprocessor define)
Replace
Update the sized under linker_section_placement_macros to reflect the memory of the nRF53833. It would be something like this (some application specific adjustments may be needed: linker_section_placement_macros="FLASH_PH_START=0x0;FLASH_PH_SIZE=0x40000;RAM_PH_START=0x20000000;RAM_PH_SIZE=0x8000;FLASH_START=0x27000;FLASH_SIZE=0x19000;RAM_START=0x20002ae8;RAM_SIZE=0x5518"

You can of course also do the changes in the Segger Embedded Studio GUI, but that will be more error prone and take more time.
