Issue: No Support for nRf52840 (PCA20035) in nRF_SDK_16.0.0 ==> Examples

[Tejaswini]

Hi,


I am trying to test the examples provided in nRF5_SDK_16.0.0 on nRF52840 (PCA20035) thingy91 device.
But unfortunately, i didn't see the support files for pca20035.

For example:

       "nRF5SDK16.0.0\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_uart"  I can see the support folders for

         pca10100 | pca10040 | pca10040e | pca10056 |  pca10056e



Please let me know, how can I get the support for nRF52840 PCA20035 thingy91 device for the same examples.

Thank you.

Hi.

The only sample we have for the nRF52840 on the Thingy:91 is here: https://github.com/NordicPlayground/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/v1.1.0-rc2/samples/usb/usb_uart_bridge

In NCS, you can build projects for the nRF52840 on the Thingy:91 by building for the board nrf52840_pca20035. Note that the CMakeLists.txt file must include ncs/nrf/cmake/boilerplate.cmake. See the documentation here: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/ug_app_dev.html#ncs-additions

Also, Sigurd has ported the hci_uart and lte_ble_gateway sample to the Thingy:91 in this ticket: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/52689/nrf9160-lte-sensor-gateway-on-thingy-91/217018#217018

Best regards,

Didrik
