https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/55145/programming-nrf9160Dear Team, I have nRF52 DK and nRF52840 DK, Can we program nRF9160 using nRF52 DK? Please let me know the process and detailed wiring to program nRF9160.

See <a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fug_nrf91_dk%2FUG%2Fnrf91_DK%2Fhw_debug_out.html">this link</a>.

The reason is that the ARM Cortex M33 on the nRF9160 is one generation never than the nRF52 series (ARMv7), hence you need a newer programmer.</span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
