nRF5340-DK models

Hi,

I want to buy a nRF5340-DK.

This is the image of the official Nordic web page https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nrf5340-dk

It appears that the interface MCU is a nRF5340, in addition to the radio MCU. It correspond with schematics file (PCA10095_Schematic_And_PCB.pdf).

However in the video "Introducing the nRF5340" in the same web page and in Mouser, the interface MCU is not a nRF5340, it is similar to the MCU in the nRF52840-DK.

Is there different versions of the nRF5340?
Are they compatible?

Thanks

  • Hello,

    Yes, the first versions of the nRF5340 DK used the same debugger chip as the early versions of the nRF52840 DK (and the nRF52 DK), but we have since then updated the DKs to instead use a nRF5340 SoC as the on-board debugger.
    The changed debugger itself does not make any difference for the user of the DK.

    Best regards,
    Karl
