how to program nrf51822 prior to mounting on a PCB

[km2019]

Hi, I just finished prototype using nrf51822.   I programmed my part while it's mounted on my PCB.

I am preparing for mass production.  So I need to program the parts quickly before I mount the part.  I bought a standalone socket for the part,  How can I get a connector to connect my socket to the PC to program my part?

THanks.

Which connector do you have on your socket board ? Which JLINK programmer you have ? 

What is the volume of the chips you are planning to program ? 

If you are talking about thousands you may want to talk to 3rd party companies that provide production programming as Andrew suggested. 

We usually suggest Hi-Lo and Elnec
