I just wanted to let you know my nRF52840 dongles got shipped yesterday, from Mouser.

Thanks.

Since I'm in the US, the below Symmetry Electronics link was easier and cheaper at $10 US.

Avnet appeared to have no stock in the US.

I placed the order for a few nrf52840 dongles with Symmetry Electronics, but they will follow up to let me know if they have stock, so we'll see if this works out...

You could try to get one from Avnet, they say they have it in stock right now.

Hi Aryan,
It looks like this dongle is now listed on the Nordic site:
https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/nRF52840-Dongle

But it appears to be only available through Mouser starting in late August.
https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nordic-Semiconductor/nRF52840-Dongle?qs=gTYE2QTfZfTbdrOaMHWEZg==&utm_source=oemsecrets&utm_medium=aggregator&utm_campaign=nRF52840-Dongle&utm_term=nRF52840DONGLE&utm_content=Nordic+Semiconductor

Is this the only option for getting the nRF52 dongle?

did you ever make an nRF52 dongle? Is it FCC certified?

Is it currently for sale?

Thanks Adrian Eggenberger, that was helpful. I did a little write-up of flashing the dongle with custom firmware (in this case iBeacon) here, if you're interested:

Kudos to AprilBrother for allowing and documenting it!

Hi,

Unfortunately, this has been delayed due to some unforeseen challenge. The latest news that it will be out in production in June end. Yes, they should be coming preloaded with a bootloader.

Any updates on this? Will they come preloaded with the bootloader?

Hi,

We are very close to produce nRF52840 dongles without segger on board. you might be able to buy them in a month or so.

Did you flash sniffer_pca10040_51296aa.hex according to nRF_Sniffer_User_Guide_v2.0.pdf ?

I also had success reprogramming the ABSniffer USB Dongle. Note that there's actually 4 pads in a row used for programming (the GND and VCC pads to the bottom-left of the SWCLK and SWDIO pads). If you contact April Brothers via email, they will sell you the POGO-pin assembly they use to program the device ($8 per + $6 shipping). If you plan on programming several, this may be the better solution. See photo of the assembly here: i.imgur.com/cPDdzFa.jpg

Or if you want to make your own assembly, the pads are designed for a 5-pin 1.27mm pitch POGO pin assembly (middle pin not connected, sits between VCC and SWCLK pads).

Just a short help if you try to use the "ABSniffer USB Dongle 528" as nRF52 Dongle. To program the nRF52 you need to connect the J-Link to the pins marked in the picture below.

Just a short update about our test with the ""ABSniffer USB Dongle 528". We have just received 5 pieces of the dongle and could program the dongle with our firmware over an external J-Link. Now it's working as a Nordic connectivity device. The nRF52 on the dongle is connected to the UART-USB bridge by the same pins as on the nRF52 DK. The same firmware that runs on the nRF52 DK can be used for the dongle.

Did someone test the "ABSniffer USB Dongle 528"? It seems to include a nRF52832 connected to a serial to USB bridge.

Might also be interested in a nrf52 dongle, especially if I could plug it into a laptop and sniff/talk BT5 and 802.15.4 flavours.

I'm also interested (very)!

Hi guys, We have designed and prototyped a nRF52-dongle based on our nRF52 module. We are thinking of manufacturing it if there is any potential business. Are you still interested in it ? either did you find any alternative solution ?
