I noticed the nrf52840 DK does not have any capacitance on the nRST line. At least none that I can find, tracing that signal on the schematic is a bit tough. 
 There is 100 pF on the 52840 dongle</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 12 Apr 2021 12:28:12 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/73806/is-it-recommended-to-put-capacitance-on-the-nrst-pin" /><item><title>RE: Is it recommended to put capacitance on the nRST pin?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/304270?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Apr 2021 12:28:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d9585305-20e9-445d-85ac-b3878bbf45cd</guid><dc:creator>ketiljo</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;There are on-chip reset circuitry on the device including pull up, so external capacitor and resistor is not needed. But it doesn&amp;#39;t harm to place the usual 10 kohm / 100 nF on the pin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The USB dongle has this to make the reset line a but more robust since the board doesn&amp;#39;t have a housing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
