PCA10059 Different version ?

[Gaétan]

Hi,

I have make an application for PCA10059, that uploaded with nRF Connect (using embedded USB DFU).

All work normaly on multiple PCA10059 board manufactured on 2018...

Now, I have buy some PCA10059 manufactured on 2019 and after DFU upload, my application don't start on last buyed dongle !

I use SoftDevice S140 v6.1

I join the application HEX file (Start on USB CDC mode) name: RavenGateway

DongleGateway.hex.zip

Is exist different version (software or hardware) of PCA10059 ? All PCA10059 are marked V1.0.0

Found it!

In the application, UART is initialized but not used... It's OK in 2018 production but generate an UART error on 2019 production !

WorkAround: comment APP_ERROR_HANDLER() function

 /**@snippet [Handling data from UART] */
      case APP_UART_COMMUNICATION_ERROR:
          NRF_LOG_ERROR("Communication error occurred while handling UART.");
          //APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_communication);
          break;

      case APP_UART_FIFO_ERROR:
          NRF_LOG_ERROR("Error occurred in FIFO module used by UART.");
          //APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_code);
          break;
