Can't upload code to PCA10095 (nRF5340-DK) via Segger Embedded Studio

[Jamal]

Hi,

I have started learning nRF5340 recently and have got the development kit as well.

I compiled first example of "peripheral_uart" but I am not able to program the board. It gives error while programming. You can see the errors i get in the images.

ALSO, is it possible that i can compile the hex file and upload it via J Flash Lite software to both cores at the same time?? Or via nRF Connect Programmer etc?

One more thing i want to add is that i am using nRF5340-PDK. Not the DK. And the nRF Connect Programmer does not detect my DK at all.

Any assistance on this matter will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

Which nRF Connect SDK version are you using? Could it be that you are seeing this issue? Note that the PDK is deprecated and cannot be used with any recent releases (the latest version with support for the PDK was 1.4.99-dev1). So I strongly recommend that you use a DK instead so that you can work with later SDK releases (the latest is 1.9.1 and 2.0.0 is right around the corner).

Hi, 

I am using nRF Connect SDK version 1.9.1.

Let me install version 1.4.1 to see if that will work fine.

Also, is it possible to have both latest and older versions at the same time and in different directories? So that we can use the version which is needed.

Thank you

Yes, you can have multiple installs. I roomed you install the nRF Connect SDK using the toolchain manager (See Installing automatically), which will place each version in a separate folder.

Please note that there is no point in developing for the PDK, as that is no longer in sale and the engineering A samples that are on it is no longer in production and was never in mass production nor intended for anything other than early evaluation.
