Hi,

nRFgo Studio is not compatible with the nRF52840 dongle. However, it should be able to cause any problems either, since nRFgo Studio needs a debugger. Can you double-check that you are using a nRF52840 dongle and not a nRF51 dongle? Or that you are using nRFgo Studio and not nRF Connect for Dekstop?

If you are using a nRF52840 dongle, then please try to program it again from nRF Connect for Desktop Programmer. You may need to press the sideways reset button to get it into USB DFU mode, which is required in order to be able to program it. You will then see a red pulsating LED indicating that it is in DFU mode.

After doing the above procedure the dongle is not detected and getting some mV from VOUT ..initially it was giving 1.8 v ..

connections

3v3  ------------------  VOUT

SWDIO ------------- SWDIO

SWDCLK -----------  SWDCLK

GND  ----------------  GND

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

Did you cut SB2 and solder SB1?

What do you mean by "getting some mV from VOUT"?  After this modification, you need to supply the dongle at the VDD OUT connection point via an external supply. Did you do that?

Ya i have given external power supply to VOUT. swdio and swdclk from nrf52840 dk

Hi,

By VOUT, you mean VDD OUT, right (see image)?

This is where you should apply the supply voltage.

What did you mean by "and getting some mV from VOUT ..initially it was giving 1.8 v .."?

As I understand you already had debugging working with the nRF52840 DK before this issue, and the connection to the debugger should remain exactly the same (like you listed, including GND detect).
