[ashokraj]

Hi,

            I am currently using nrfgo mother board ( nrf6700). I could able to connect to nrfgo studio and see it is connected I can also program external device through ISP. Cant this board be programmed directly like how nrf51 or n52 development kits we can upload any precompiled hex file in it? I wanted to upload files into this board and test the board and software. how can i do that?

Hi,

 

The nRFgo motherboards are designed for the 8051 based nRF24L-series devices, and does not have a SWD capable debugger (required for programming our nRF5-parts).

In order to program a nRF5 device, you have to use a SWD capable debugger. If you want to use our tools for programming, you have to use a Segger debugger/programmer.

 

Kind regards,

Håkon
