nRF52840 Dongle USB Pins usable for uart?

Hello,
Is it possible to use the USB Pins for Uart? no USB Protrocoll
Would be nice if i can use the USB socket for UART with my other projects so i dont have to create a USB HOST or i have to solder to test pins on the dongle.
Kind regards

  • Okay, thanks for confirming. As Dmitry said, the answer is no in this case. The Dongle indeed has very few readily available GPIOs, and you'll need to solder on any pin headers for it to act as an efficient development board. For development, we recommend using the nRF52 DKs instead, which with their on board debuggers and pin header availability are best suited for an easy development process.

    Best regards,
