Doesnt nrfgo studio read the entire sectors while reading back using nrf51dk

[ashokraj]

Hi, 

       I am currently using two different programmers(nrf51DK, Segger flasher portable plus), programming software's ( NRFgo Studio, Jflash). Here are my issues: 

1. When I flash hex file into my device using nrf51dk, nrf go studios then readback the data the files starts at an address location of 18000 and ends at 40000 . I would like to know the reason for this?
2. When I do the same process as above and with jflash I could able to start at address location 00000 and end at 100013F0.

Hi,

I would like to know the reason for this?

Are using the S110 SoftDevice? That SD starts at 0x18000, so it could be related to that. Anyways, nRFgo Studio is deprecated, please use nRF Connect for Desktop and the programmer app instead.

Yes, I also have devices running with nRF24LE1. As you said nRFgo Studio is deprecated! Can nRFconnect be used for nRF24LE1 or Do you have some other software other than nRFconnect for these?

For nRF24LE1 you can continue to use nRFgo Studio, but for nRF5x I would recommend to use the Programmer app.
