jlink lite replacement

[Paul Russell]

My JLink Lite seems to have died (nRFgo Studio can see it, but can't connect to a target). What is the latest replacement for a JLink Lite?

Preferably something that can work with my own future PCB, and isn't hundreds of dollars.

I have an nRF51822-EK and an nRF51822-mkit, but I don't see an easy way to isolate their SWDIO/SWCLK signals from the onboard nRF51822.

That's unfortunate. You could try asking Nordic to sell you a replacement, they might be allowed to do that if it's broken, I don't think Segger will sell you one.

The new nRF51-DK also has an onboard JLink which you can also use to program an external board, if you'd prefer to buy another board rather than use your mkit. I'd probably start by trying to use the mkit myself.

Thank you RK, Its great the new DK supports user PCBs and mbed. When budget allows I'll order it.
