 I am trying to use nRF Connect SDK v2.8.0 and nRF52840 to run Matter&amp;#39;s Light Switch and Light Bulb. 
 I was able to confirm that it works with nRF52840-DK, but it doesn&amp;#39;t seem to work with nRF52840 evaluation boards that do not have an external</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 29 Nov 2024 00:34:16 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/116802/questions-external-flash-required-for-matter" /><item><title>RE: Questions: External Flash required for Matter?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/512652?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 29 Nov 2024 00:34:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:61bdfcde-d30c-4755-a5d1-4c5a7cafb05a</guid><dc:creator>Kenta</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you for your quick reply.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I use Matter, I&amp;#39;ll make sure to include an external Flash in my hardware design.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Questions: External Flash required for Matter?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/512575?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 Nov 2024 12:52:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c114806f-2923-4989-8665-d427482fb932</guid><dc:creator>AHaug</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;br /&gt;Andreas&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
