nrf51822 Minew's Module is not recognized by NRF51DK

[fercholas]

Hi guys

I am trying to program a nrf51822 module but it is not recognized by the development kit.

These are the pins that I am using:

I can not see the module with NRFGo on Windows or on linux with Jlink console.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

What is the output of JLinkExe (J-Link Commander in windows)? If this successfully finds a target and a valid voltage, you shall also be able to contact the device using nrfjprog from command line:

nrfjprog --recover // do this just in-case nrfjprog --program nrfjprog --pinreset

The "blinky" demo is a good application for a visual indication to see if you are programming the nRF51-DK or your external board. The "program external board" feature is a bit tricky, as the voltage must be equal on the external board and the nRF51-DK, for it to work properly.

edit ; my first answer was incorrect. sorry.

Cheers, Håkon

Hello Sir, I also designed one custom board and trying to program it.

Do i need to connect the Vnrf(pin 1),SWDIO,SWCLK,GND pins to my custom board and short the vdd and vtg pins? please confirm
