Hi Michael,

I am sorry but I need to update my answer. As it's explain in the information notice, it is stronly recommended to upgrade to the latest MDK (version 8.40.1 or later) in order to debug the chip if using nRF52832-QFAA-G.

You can download the newest version of the MDK from: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-tools/nRF-MDK/Download

But there is no need to make changes to your code or to SES.

Best regards,

Marjeris

Hi Michael,

Access port protection blocks the debugger from read an write access to all CPU registers and memory-mapped addresses when enabled. Access port protection is enabled and disable differently depending on the build code of the device. See here.

The build code AA-G means that the access port protection is controlled by hardware and software, instead of only hardware for AA.

Both your firmware and your development enviroment can continue being the same regardless of the build code you are using.

Read more about Access port protection here.

Best regards,

Marjeris
