&lt;p&gt;Can you expand on what you tried to do here? Was the project built for the nRF52840 or the nRF52833, and what exactly did you try to do that didn&amp;#39;t work? How did it fail, was any error code returned?&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]1. What problems are anticipated that may arise from using an image built as nRF52833?&lt;br /&gt;[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;The nRF52833 and nRF52840 is very similar but have different level of support for some peripherals. It&amp;#39;s not safe to build a project for nRF52833 and then run it on the nRF52840, there might be some dependencies that will make the project assert.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]&lt;br /&gt;2. Is it possible to operate Reg0 of nRF52840 in LDO mode by appropriate means using the current nRF Connect SDK?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Using nRF52840 with LDO is fully supported. You just have to make sure that the DC/DC is not enabled in the project configs. Have you tried this?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;regards&lt;/p&gt;
