Cannot find nRF5x-OB-JLink-IF.bin for nRF51 USB Dongle

[changzj]

Hello,

for some reason, I have mistakenly entered in the NRF51 USB dongle bootloader mode, and cannot exit. I have read that it is possible to overwrite the DFU/bootloader by simply drag and dropping the nRF5x-OB-JLink-IF file, but I cannot find it anywhere, looks like the link is broken on the nordicsemi.com.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chang

Hi Zhu,

The file for the dongle is missing on our website. But you should be able to use the file for the nRF51 DK (PCA10028 )  instead. You can find the file here:

https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-Tools/Development-Kits/nRF51-DK/Download#infotabs

To enter the bootloader mode (so that you can do drag and drop) please press and hold SW1 when you plug the USB dongle in, a BOOTLOADER drive should appear.

Hello, I don't find this file on the zip. Could you verify that please. Thank you.

Finally there is a working link here:
