  • Hi,

    Are you going to program a lot of boards or just the one?

    The most popular approach is to use a SEGGER J-Link programmer. Please see these DevZone posts for more information:

    You may also find some low cost alternatives in this blog post.

  • hi ketil,

       now the new problem rises to me i will explain one by one.

    1. i had designed a custom board for nrf52840 10 numbers. i am waiting for soc chip 52840 but it is not available now. so i am going to nrf52832 soc chip. can i load softdevice and application program using my nrf52840 pdk to my custom board which as nrf52832 chip. if not what is the procedure for that.

    2. i have designed a custom board 52840 will the same board will work for 52832 or i want to change any changes.

    3. as i came through previous questions there are something like st link is not preferable to load softdevice and application program for nordic chips in custom board. because the link you provided for bluey. 

    4. after my task is fullfilled with my custom board. i will go for mass production. so i think segger is best option. in that which flasher is user friendly, cheap and best as i already provided a link which is from nordic website.

    please clarify me for all this? thanks
