How to flash PCA10040 complied code to nrf52832 using nrf51dk PCA10028

Hi,

I have NRF51DK (PCA10028) board and i want to flash BT832 (NRF52832) device.I have downloaded latest SDK but it only has the option of PCA10040.Is it possible to flash PCA10040 binaries using nrf51dk  or the only solution is to buy nrf52dk board.

Thanks.

  • Hi,

    You can target any nRF5 series chip with the debugger on the NRF51DK. So you can use the 51DK to flash PCA10040 binaries to your module. But note that the PCA10040 (board name for nRF52DK) examples use the optional external 32K LF crystal. For BLE examples, remember to change the clock source to the internal RC oscillator in case you don't have a 32KHz crystal in your design. Clock configuration applied by sd_softdevice_enable() in ble_stack_init().
