 Im Nicolas, from Colombia. I want to develop an IoT product, using nRF9160, but don&amp;#39;t want to use the DK (is too big for my application). I&amp;#39;ve been reading about the device, but haven&amp;#39;t find anything on how to use the SoC only, how to</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 26 Mar 2020 11:42:20 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/59511/how-to-use-nrf9160" /><item><title>RE: How to use nRF9160</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/241794?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 26 Mar 2020 11:42:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:31fbd384-424d-47d6-b04f-b17d0b6e3e18</guid><dc:creator>Andreas</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The NRF9160-DK is the recommended development platform for your code, whether or not the target product is big or small. If you need a smaller prototyping platform you can have a look at thingy91, but that does not have a debugger so we recommend you get a DK anyway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note though that there are physical constraints to how small it is feasible to make the product. Antenna performance degrades with the size of the PCB, and you need room for a battery that has enough capacity and that can support high enough load.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Andreas&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
