Hi,
I have setup the Segger Embedded Studio for ARM (Nordic Edition) V5.10d, and managed to compile a sample app from ,
V1.4.2 -> nrf -> samples -> bluetooth -> peripheral uart
I used my NRF52-DK, hooked up the board to my PC and managed to program the app with "Build and Run" option. I quickly verified that the app is working, by installing the "nrf-tool box" on my phone, and run the app, connect to the device named "Nordic-UART_service". Then did setup the terminal emulator (inbuilt on the segger) with 115200/8/N/1 and managed to communicate with the phone's app, both directions, rx and tx.
Apart from the NRF52-DK, I have designed and built our own NRF52832 based board, which was initially tested with a custom serial/UART bootloader. For this, earlier I used Arduino IDE and managed to program the custom board and run the apps.
Now, I need to migrate to the official NRF SDK studio (Segger which I already setup and tested) and use this SDK to compile and build, but then I need a means to program the custom boards.
My custom boards have the following options (hardware wise)
1. Serial RX/TX exposed
2. SWDIO / SWDCLK pins exposed
With these options, how do I compile an app on the NRF-SDK, and download the Hex file (??) on to the custom board?
I have previously managed to program the bootloader + SoftAPI on to my custom board through the SWDIO/SWDCLK interface, provided from the NRF52-DK board.
I would like to know,
1. Similar to the way I program the bootloader + SoftAPI on to the custom board through the SWD interface, can I program the app on to the custom board?
2. If I want to use a Serial/UART bootloader, where by pressing a button, the custom board goes on to Serial bootloader mode, does the NRF-SDK support to flash/program the app through a serial cable (with a USB 2 serial cable).
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks.
regards,
Dinesh.
