nRF52840 dongle pca10059 development kit for Gazell

[FloBoth]

Hi all,

I started a project on nRF52840 dongle with Segger IDE. I used SDK15.2 given by Nordic and my goal is to develop a program that permits to communicate between 2 usb dongle over Gazell protocol.

My problem is : Only the Blinky project on the SDK15.2 is compatible with pca10059, so I have chosen to start with this basic project. But as soon as I  want to include libraries for example for the button or anything else, there is many errors that appears because of dependencies.

I already tried to include path files to the configuration of the project, adapt the code...but there are always some errors.

So I'm here to know if someone can share a basic project compatible with my dongle (pca10059) that permits to do a minimum of things like push on the button, communicate with Gazell etc.

Thanks for your return.

Hi FloBoth,

Maybe this tutorial can be of help https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/tutorials/b/getting-started/posts/nrf52840-dongle-programming-tutorial

See the part about "Adapting SDK projects for the nRF52840 Dongle"

Wow, the tutorial looks interesting to me as well. I did note that it is only dated today! Many thanks for the info on the voltage; I did notice the code in the Board Support Package relating to voltage control - that had me worried. Now explained in the turorial. I hope that newcomers really read carefully the first paragraph because I would have stood NO chance on getting my application working without the DK and its debugging facilities.

Hi Raymond,

Thanks a lot for this tutorial that's help me.

However, I have an error when I want to generate the DFU for writing the code into the dongle : "AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'iteritems' ".

Do you know why ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Where are you getting this error? Could you be more specific? Is this an error you get while using the nRF Connect Programmer app?
