The firmware of dongle nRF52840

Anthony Ch.

Good day, support!

I have a couple of questions regarding the firmware of the nRF52840 dongle.

1) How to identify the firmware version that is nRF Connect flashing (by its tool Programmer)?

2) What is the difference between nRF Connect firmware (flashing by its tool Bluetooth Low Energy) and connectivity_4.1.1_usb_with_s140_6.1.1?

Looking forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Anthony.

    Hi Anthony

    1. I'm not sure I understand what you mean about this question. Do you want to use the programmer app to identify what application is on the connected device? In that case, you won't be able to, as you will only be able to see what addresses the different regions occupy and what they are called. Other than that, you can't do anything specific with that information.

    2. I'm sorry, but we can't go into detail on what the nRFConnect Bluetooth Low Energy firmware, as that is Nordic's IP and not public information.

    Best regards,

    Simon

    Yes, you understood correctly. There are about a dozen dongles and different people work with them. In case of an error, you need to be sure that the firmware in the dongle is exactly what we need. Is there a way to compare dongle firmware with the required firmware?

    I see. If this is commercial information, then skip this question. Fortunately, we found an alternative dongle firmware with which the nRF Connect works and understood the reason for the failure.

    Best regards,

    Hi Anton

    Using the programmer app you can check that the device memory layout and file memory layout are located at the same addresses to confirm that they are the same for example.
