Creating own custom-board from nrf52840-DK

Hello,

I want to create my own board from the nrf52840. I am planning to copy the schematics given only taking into account what I need.
I went through the schematics and some questions raised:

  • If I will use only SPI with my board, is it needed to include the "Interface MCU(nrf5340)" part, or only with the nrf52840 is enough?
  • If I would like to implement also one button and leds, would the nrf52840 alone still be enough?
  • The soldiering of the nrf52840 seems quite difficult, would you know of a solution for this? Maybe a mounting base or something similar?
  • I see that your schematics are all for Altium. Would they exist also for KiCad?

Thank you so much for your time. I know they may be simple questions but I am a noob to this hardware design.

Adrian Lopez.
