Doubts about programming

[Anderson Silva]

Hello.
I'm having problems to programme the nRF52832.
I'm just connecting the VCC (+3,3V), GND and SWDIO and SWDCLK.
Is it ncessary to connect any other devices like capacitors or reset pins in the circuit?
My problem is with programming process... I'm not beeing able to receive a "success" from the programming process.

I'm using the devkit nRF52-DK as programmer.
So I connecting the VDD (3V) pin (of P1 connector) to VTG (of P20 connector).
I connecting the GND pin (of P1 connector) to GND detect (of P20 connector).
And connecting VDD, GND (of P1 connector) to my board application. And connectiong SWDIO and SWDCLK (of connector P1) to my board application too.

This process occour very well with other boards that I bought few weeks ago (that are full assempbled but now, I'm tryng to do it in my application and it don't occour.
I'm not sure if is necessary to fill (solder) the PCB with all components to able the programming... because I believe that is necessary just the nRF and power supply.

Thank you.

Hi Anderson

Glad you got it working! Yes, it should not be a problem to make a HelloWorld example that can be flashed onto your nRF. You can take a look at our blinky example that should be ready to be flashed when downloading our SDK.

However, we try to keep each ticket to its own topic as that makes the forum easier to navigate for people with similar issues in the future, so if you have any further questions on MBED development, I suggest you make a new ticket dedicated to that subject.

Best regards,

Simon
