 I am developing a PCB with the nrf52840 chip. The chip is implemented as described in the datasheet ( Circuit configuration no. 6 for QIAA aQFN73 ), using the files that can be downloaded from the nordic webpage. The chip will act as a central</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 14 Sep 2021 11:58:03 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/79592/using-a-switching-regulator-to-step-down-voltage-from-21-6v-to-3-3v-to-power-nrf52840" /><item><title>RE: Using a switching regulator to step down voltage from 21,6V to 3.3V to power nRF52840</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/329424?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Sep 2021 11:58:03 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ad088468-76c3-4128-abdb-3776ea9600e5</guid><dc:creator>ketiljo</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;This shouldn&amp;#39;t be a problem. The switching frequency is high enough to be properly filtered. Use a ferrite bead in series with the nRF52840 power supply in case there are high frequency components that&amp;#39;s slipping through.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Use the recommended decoupling caps from both regulator and nRF52840 reference schematics and you should be fine.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
