https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/48285/nrf9160-dk-nc-pinsHi, I noticed that some of the GND_Shield pins on the nRF9160 (described in the product specification) are not connected on the nrf9160 DK. Why are they not connected to GND?

DK v1.0.0, which has the production version of the SiP, will have these pins grounded as well. You should follow the pinout in the PS for your design.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Andreas</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
