nRF51: Expectable flashing speed in production?

[Adam Heinrich]

Dear developers,

we are considering purchase of a reliable programmer capable to flash the nRF51822 in production, one possible option is the SEGEGR FLASHER PORTABLE or FLASHER ARM. I know that the programming speed highly depends on the actual target hardware.

The programmer I use for development is able to achieve just 23.7KiB/s. Is it reasonable to expect a significant improvement when using a production-grade programmer? What speeds do you achieve for production programming?

Thank you,

Adam Heinrich

Hi Adam,

Try to increase the SWD speed[typically given in kHz]. For production programming we have a infocenter page here you should take a look at. We also have a more detailed whitepaper here.
