The softdevice will specify base addresses for CODE and RAM in the SoftDevice resource requirements section of the specification. These need to be reflected in the linker control file (.icf) in ICFEDIT_intvec_start__, ICFEDIT_region_ROM_start__ and ICFEDIT_region_RAM_start__.

You'll also want to add --drv_vector_table_base=0x0 to the Extra Options tab of the project options Debugger setup, as described here.

Hope this helps, Matt

Hi max, I'm not sure why this isn't working for you, your .icf looks correct. I just verified for myself by going through the following steps on a PCA10004 (nRF51822):

Unpack nrf51_sdk_v6_1_0_b2ec2e6.zip and s110_nrf51822_7.0.0.zip.
Use nRFgo Studio to Erase All, then program s110_nrf51822_7.0.0_softdevice.hex and verify.
Edit nrf51_sdk_v6_1_0_b2ec2e6/nrf51822/Board/nrf6310/s110/ble_app_hrs/iar/ble_app_hrs.icf and change intvec_start and ROM start to 0x00016000, it looks just like your .icf at this point.
Open the IAR workspace in that same directory, I'm using EWARM 7.20.2.7431 w/ Windows 7 x64.
Change Project Options: Debugger Setup tab: Set Diver to J-Link/J-Trace (Run to main is checked) Debugger Download tab: check Verify Download and Use flash loader(s) Debugger Extra Options tab: check Use command line options and add --drv_vector_table_base=0x0

I left the J-Link/J-Trace settings as they were, except for enabling Log communication in the Connection tab. After doing a Rebuild All I am able to successfully Download and Debug:

The Go (->->->) button starts application execution, I can connect using the Master Control Panel app on my android phone. Here is ble_app_hrs.zip from my nrf51_sdk_v6_1_0_b2ec2e6/nrf51822/Board/nrf6310/s110/ for your reference.

Again, I hope this helps.

Best Regards, Matt

I haven't migrated from Keil to IAR and do not have an answer for you on that question. Maybe someone else can help you out

Or i miss something?

I edited your code snippet to use the code formatting. I've seen that call lock up when there was a bad clock on the 32KHz external oscillator pins. What are you using for a low frequency clock? If it isn't an external oscillator with 20PPM of error, you could see this problem.

Hi,

I changed(start adress 0x16000), it is now goes to main but stack on

// Initialize SoftDevice.
    SOFTDEVICE_HANDLER_INIT(NRF_CLOCK_LFCLKSRC_XTAL_20_PPM, false);

You know how solve it?

The error window is indicating you are trying to program address 0x15000 which is 84K. With SDS 7.0.0 the stack goes up to 88K. I suspect you need to edit your linker config file for the proper start and size of your projects code space. You can do that by selecting projects->options->linker->config in your IDE.
