[nRF5340] Modularization of the nRF5340

[DDYD1]

Hello.

I have an nRF9160DK and an nRF7002DK.
My goal is to set the nRF9160DK to use the nRF5340 as a module to connect to Bluetooth.

There are two main things I want to know.
1. Connect from the nRF9160DK to the nRF5340 via the UART connection. Can I then use commands from the nRF9160DK to control the nRF5340's Bluetooth?

2. Does the nRF5340 require any programming steps in this process?

If you have any relevant examples, please help.

Hi,

I am not sure why you still use nRF Terminal if you wifi shell device(nRF7002DK) is connecting with another uart host devcie(nRF9160DK).

Can you show me you HW connection when you test "with uart" and explain a bit more?

My understanding is that the connection should be like the following:

1. with PC terminal: WiFi Shell(nRF7002DK) <--uart--> USB TTL converter + PC terminal

2. with uart: WiFi Shell(nRF7002DK) <--uart-->  nRF9160DK(uart2) ?

Best regards,

Charlie
