 Looking the examples of SDK16, I noticed that every example has a hex folder with some .hex files inside . This applies for both peripheral and ble examples. The path is shown below

&lt;p&gt;These are &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v16.0.0/getting_started_precompiled.html?cp=7_5_0_1_0"&gt;pre-compiled .hex files &lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that also combines softdevice (for ble examples). So, you can flash the example directly using the programmer of nRF Desktop or the&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;nRF Command Line Tool&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
