nrf52833 DK and Jlink debugger

[NCKGTW]

Deasr staff,

• we are going to design some nrf52833 board wich will be updated by SWD debugger. Could you please send the item part for basic configuration about Mouser distributor ?
• we are going also to buy nRF52833 DK - nordicsemi.com , can you confirm we dont need any external debugger for it ? 

Thanks a lot.

Hi Nicola,

 I suggest that you take a look at the layout of the nRF52833: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/nRF52833/Downloads#infotabs:~:text=you%20should%20download.-,Reference%20layout,-for%20the%20nRF52833 .. You can also find the hardware files of the nRF52833-DK here: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nRF52833-DK/Download#infotabs:~:text=Hardware%20files,files%202_0_0.zip 

we are going also to buy nRF52833 DK - nordicsemi.com , can you confirm we dont need any external debugger for it ? 

You do not need an external debugger on any of Nordic's DK's. It has an on-board interface MCU that works as a debugger and can be used to program other custom boards as well.

Thanks SwRa,

im new to nordic.

What are the link above ? do i need them ?

if we make custom board can we also debug and flash them with the DK?

if not could you please send us the exact mouser/digikey part number for a standalone debugger please?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Nicola,

The links that I have shared are the schematic layout and other hardware files of the nrf52833-DK that you can use as a reference when designing your hardware.

Yes.. That is certainly possible. The DK's have on-board debuggers.. You can just use the Debug out port of the DK to program the external hardware. See here: https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_nrf52833_dk/page/UG/dk/hw_debug_out.html 

Best Regards,
