UAER Printf shows noting using nRF52840 dongle and a USB to TTL module (Arduino Uno as the USB to TTL)

[AbbaS7]

Hello,

I am trying to send "Hello" through the UART and the nrf52840 dongle using a USB to TTL approach. The main.c code and the sdk_confg.h are uploaded here. The problem is that neither printf nor the NRF_LOG_INFO command shows nothing at the serial monitor!
Please note that in the configuration, ble, uart, spi, and PWM is enabled since this is the final thing that I need.

I have done the ble+pwm+spi and it works fine. The only problem now is that I need UART to see the SPI data and this simple code for the UART does not work!

BTW, I have checked the USB to ttl and it works fine. I have used to Arduino to send hello using uart with that and it works!

Can you please help me with this part?

Thanks,

Abbas
