Firmware flashing

How to flash the firmware using IDAP-link. Which is the better , J-link or IDAP-link ?

Parents
  • The IDAP-Link is a CMSIS-DAP Jtag. You can use it with Keil, CrossWork, Arduino and many other IDE including OpenOCD & Eclipse. It also comes with a command line flashing program made for nRF5x series, the IDAPnRFProg. This utility can flash multiple boards in parallel. There multiple way to flash nRF5x with IDAP-Link.

    • Using IDE (Keil, Crossworks, OpenoCD, Arduino...) great for development and debugging.
    • Using IDAPnRFProg : flashing Softdevice + App + DFU without merghex + readback protection and parallel programming. This mode is the fastest.
    • Using SDCard also no merhex require. Copy SD.hex firmware.hex and dfu.hex onto a SDCard. Put in the IDAP-Link and press the program button.
    • Drag & drop mBed style (require mergehex)
    • Using serial terminal program such as CoolTerm (mergehex is require). See devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../
