Can MAX32625PICO be used to flash nRF52840 Dongle ?

I have a nRF52840 dongle.

My understanding is that the nRF52840 has an on-chip regulator (Vdd out) that can be set from 1.8 to 3.3V.

So it's recommended to use a debugger that supports level shifting such as the "J-link EDU" which has a target voltage range of 1.2 to 5V.  But the "J-link EDU" is $60.

But I see a much cheaper debugger with level shifting , the MAX32625PICO : https://os.mbed.com/platforms/MAX32625PICO/ , which is about $12

From the firmware list for the MAX32625PICO ( https://os.mbed.com/teams/MaximIntegrated/wiki/MAX32625PICO-Firmware-Updates ), one of them says, "VIO is input.VIO is input", so I think that's will work.

Has anyone tried this ?

Thanks
