Can DAPLink be used to program and debug nrf52832?

[Bhaumik]

Hey Guys,

Please pardon me if this is stupid question, I am trying to create a development board with nrf52832, and I want to have a debug probe on board.

I found open source debug probe from mbed called DAPLink, they have reference design called SWDAP, given its a CMSIS DAP probe can it be used to program and debug nrf52 devices over the SWD pins?

Here are the links to the hardware and software. developer.mbed.org/.../ github.com/.../README.md

Do I have to do anything special to make it work with NRF52 devices?

Thanks, Bhaumik

I tested that recently and it just worked fine. You cannot use it in nRFGo Studio, but as far as i remember, nrfjprog was good with daplink.

Ok so SWDAP or DAP link can to drag and drop programming and HID debugging. It does not use SWD (thats what is my understanding, please correct me if I am wrong). If I create my own the reference SWDAP hardware, I will have to create a firmware for NRF52 device. DAP Link firmware has steps on how to add new targets. Do have the changes that you made to the code?
