nrfGo Studio doesn't work with micro:bit?

[Andrew Lentvorski]

Just wanted to ask: is this expected that nrfGo Studio doesn't work with the micro:bit?

Presumably this means that nrfGo Studio doesn't work with CMSIS-DAP in general?

What's the alternative?

Thanks.

Hi Andrew.

No, I'm afraid it is not expected for nRFgo Studio to work with the BBC micro:bit out of the box.
To program your micro:bit, you should be able to simply drag-and-drop your file onto the MICROBIT removable drive.

However, you can take a look at this post from SEGGER, about how to upgrade the BBC micro:bits DAPLink to a J-link OB:

"Upgrading to J-link enables the use of a broad range of IDEs"
"Maintains support of HEX file Drag-and-drop"

This might enable the micro:bit to be used with nRFgo Studio (Note that I have not tested this myself).

More information can be found on the micro:bit website.
Also the micro:bit developer community might be of interest, where you can take a look at this post.

Hope that helps.
Best regards,
Joakim.
