Custom Board Not Running Code

Figured it out! I had used "blinky" for the Section Placement Macros, which failed to upload without --chiperase after flashing the softdevice. I used Section Placement Macros from ble_app_alert_notification_pca10040e_s112 instead, as my project uses the s112 softdevice.

Thanks for the help!

Please see attached a schematic of my design.

I will also add that I after flashing the softdevice, I get an error when flashing my custom hex "Data does not match in address range [0x00001000-0x00003ec0]". It does work if I add --chiperase though.

And for the 810 migration, I wasn't able to manually edit ROM_END, RAM_END, so I just copied SES Linker "Section Placement Macros" from the pca10040e blinky example, as I think that accomplishes the same thing.

Uploading the hex file you linked worked, which means that the error must be in the hex I'm creating.

The dev kit I have is this one. I unfortunately built off a PCA10040, so I had to follow the instructions to switch to 810 hardware. However, the compiled hex file I get still does not run. devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../main_5F00_device.hex

Hello,

Do you have a nRF52810 on the dev kit as well? I would also suggest to try the "blinky" hex attached below to see if it runs. It does not rely on any of the crystal oscillators.
