TRACEDATA pins during debug

I found it. It was never in my code. The Segger J-link debugger has a setting that you can turn it off. For anyone else:

uncheck this box, and it will program without the SWO enabled.

Eclipse, gcc makefile project, sdk 16.0, nRf52833.

'ENABLE_TRACE' does not exist in the project. Where would this macro be located? Is the debug module configured through the debugger, or is it compiled somewhere? If so, where is this set?

Hi,

We are missing some information here. For example which IDE are you using? And are you working on nRF SDK, NCS or bare metal?

If you enable the ENABLE_TRACE macro when compiling, then the startup code will enable trance and configure the pins accordingly.

Some IDEs will set the device for tracing only if specified, but by default the pins are set as application GPIO pins after a reset.

BR,
