 I have built a project(ex: matter bulb) in Nordic SDK, the generated load is zephyr.hex which size is about 2345kb ; 
 Then I open nRF Connect Programmer, and choose the zephyr.hex file, in the file memory layout page , I found only green</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 07 Nov 2024 07:36:30 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/116164/fw-size-confusing" /><item><title>RE: FW size confusing</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/509362?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 07 Nov 2024 07:36:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d3d1e74d-8102-4022-b1c6-05c27520f66b</guid><dc:creator>susepc</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/members/turboj"&gt;Turbo J&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you convert a hex to binary, you will usually get a file with about 1/3 the size.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Warning: Does not work with hex files that contains UICR on NRFx - because hex files support large &amp;quot;holes&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
