A really neat discovery. nRF52832 DK board designs in environments need to ensure correct placement of connections to avoid conflicts. Follow along to learn the proper procedures.

block blast, thanks!

By the way that *is* what I have been following. I gave up on the video though as it was recorded using an earlier version of the toolkit and both the code & UI have changed.

Edit: Ah well... A new day so I deleted all my builds and apps and started again, but used the content of the files from the exercise as a template and it builds now with just minor problems (xxx defined more than once) so there must have been a typo or something I missed or duplicated.

[quote userid="75734" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/120685/nrf-connect-custom-board-address-range-collision-warnings/531692"]Have you perhaps added multiple board files with the same name (nRF52832 DK) in your environment which results in these collisions? [/quote]

Not at all - it's a new custom board, then a new application as per the tutorial. There is just one board in my BOARDROOT directory, which is the custom board I'm creating now.

I have just the 2 applications - hello_world and peripheral_uart in my application folders, anything else has been deleted.

Of course there have been previous attempts at creating a board. Maybe some cache files need clearing?

Oh, there is one other problem reported in myboard_defconfig

CONFIG_ARM_MPU=y

The active build context "build" does not use this file

I've attached the board files

devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../5305.board.zip
