Hello,

It may have been damaged in some way yes, can you try the "recover" steps just in case:
https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/tutorials/b/getting-started/posts/nrf52840-dongle-programming-tutorial 

... modify the dongle so that it can be supplied by an external supply and use the nRF52840 DK to program it.

1. Adapt the dongle hardware as described under External regulated source in the nRF52840 Dongle documentation.
2. Connect VDD from the nRF52840 DK to VDD OUT on the nRF52840 Dongle.
3. Program via SWD as you have previously done (but remember to set REGOUT0 this time).

Best regards,
Kenneth
