Programmer for nRF52832

[Agoff]

Hi,

I've got a suggestion to use for nRF52832 Multilink Universal FX or Cyclin FX  programmers.

Even though the Segger programmer only suggested by Nordicsemi.

Can you suggest please what is the proper choice?

Do you mean you're making the suggestion, or you have received this suggestion from soneone?

If the former, what do you see as the particular advantage(s) of these products?

If the latter, what does that person suggest are the particular advantage(s) of these products?

How about giving a link to those products?

Since the Nordic Dev Kits come with the Segger built-in, then it seems obvious to use that.

Note that the built-in Segger JLink is more than just a programmer - it is also a powerful debugger. It includes an evaluation licence to use Monitor Mode Debgging.

But, at the end of the day, it's just a Cortex-M4 with SWD - so you can use any programmer/debugger with Cortex-M4 support via SWD.

Yes, correct, the local supplier suggested to use it.

Supplier of what ?

That's more expensive than a genuine J-Link PLUS!!

If you have that money to spend, unless you have a really compelling reason to use that, I would certainly recommend the J-Link PLUS!
