How to program nRF52840?

Marcos Tadeo

HI.

is my first time to using Nordic devices, and I'm going to program nRF52840 to medical product,(oximeter, gyroscope, etc.), I am using a dev, module basic, only to test it. I'm going to use Keil uvision 5 as my IDE, but I have no idea how to start.

where can I see program examples? or in your experience, what program IDE do you recommend?

thank you and regards

pd. I am leaning English, it's not good

    Hi,

    We provide two different SDKs for developing with Nordic devices. Since you are just starting out, I would recommend using the nRF Connect SDK, as it is the main SDK going forward. You can read more about the two SDKs in the blog post nRF Connect SDK and nRF5 SDK statement.

    For nRF Connect SDK we have a getting started guide in our nRF Connect SDK documentation, which you can find here: nRF Connect SDK Getting started. There you will see how to install the SDK, tools, and toolchain, as well as how to build and test applications. I would also recommend going through our nRF Connect SDK Tutorial series. In this SDK, examples are divided into samples and applications, where samples show single features or libraries, while applications are larger applications for specific use cases. You can find more information about this in the documentation: Samples and Applications.

    You have three options when it comes to building and programming samples in nRF Connect SDK: VS Code using our nRF Connect for Visual Studio Code extension, SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES), and command line. I would recommend checking out the VS Code extension.

    If you instead want to use nRF5 SDK you can find the documentation here: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp, and the SDK can be downloaded here: nRF5 SDK Download. The recommended IDE for nRF5 SDK is SES, which is free to use with Nordic Semiconductor devices. You can find a guide for using this here: Getting started with nRF5 SDK and SES (nRF51 & nRF52 Series). Documentation for examples can be found here: nRF5 SDK v17.1.0 Examples.

    Best regards,

    Marte
