Schematic for nRF 52840-DK wanted.

[fabi]

Hi all,

may someone send me the schematic for the nRF 52840-DK devkit ?

That would be awsome!

Greetings,

Hi,

You can download that from here (nRF52840-DK HW files).

Why does the 'Get Documentation' button take you away from there to a place which does not have the schematics?!

https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf52840_dk/UG/nrf52840_DK/intro.html

Surely, the schematics are an essential part of the documentation?!

Why is it not included in the Hardware Description?

https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf52840_dk/UG/nrf52840_DK/hw_desc_intro.html

Again, surely, the schematics are an essential part of the hardware description?!

Exactly the same issue with the nRF52832 DK:

Hi awneil,

if you visit the documentation landing pages on infocenter (e.g. https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf52840_dk/UG/nrf52840_DK/intro.html?cp=3_0_4 )

You will see this statement for both those devkits:
"For access to firmware source code, hardware schematics, and layout files, see www.nordicsemi.com."

So it IS possible to find - but I will try and make it even simpler for you. For example, that link could be more visible not to mention take the user diretly to exactly the correct page.

But why are those things not included in the 'Hardware Description' page of the Info centre?

Again, they are an essential part of the hardware description!

Why is the documentations spread over two different places, with neither being complete?

Clearly, it's not just me - there are two questions here within one month asking the exact same thing.

Surely, a button that says 'Get Documentation' should take you to a place where you can get all the documentation?

And that just takes you to the Nordic Home page.

You then have to trawl through the website to find the Product Page.

Why can't it link directly to the downloads section of the Product Page?
