Hi,

It because of the uECC library. The debug information generated by GCC is not compatible with IAR. Try to compile the library without '-g' or compile with '-gdwarf-3' to override the default DWARF version.

hi,

Thanks for reply. 

Can you please share step to compile uECC? I have downloaded uECC library from github but haven't compile it.

Hi,

I have run this script and output is shown below,

But still having the same error.

Hi,

You need to change the compile flag in the Makefile as well: "CFLAGS +=  -Wall -Werror -Os -g3" --> "CFLAGS +=  -Wall -Werror -Os -gdwarf-3"

Which memory variant of the 51 are you using? And does the bootloader work if you just program it nrfjprog, etc.? 

[Urvisha Andani]

Memory setting is as like below,

And use nRF51822 QFAA.

[Vidar Berg]

The memory settings are for the 32K RAM variant, while your chip has 16K. Try to change the RAM end address to 0x20004000 and start address to 0x20002500.

Edit: RAM base must be at least 0x200025e0 for the bootloader in SDK 12.3.0

Actually I am using mdbt40 custom board in which nRF51822 use.And in this module 32K RAM is available showing in specification of mdBT40 and link is given below,

I also change of RAM address as you told but not run show like below,

[Vidar Berg]

The APP RAM base must be 0x200025e0. Can you try this and see if you get the same result?
