Hi Keshav,

We have the nRF Connect SDK or the nRF5SDK that can be used to program all of our products.. For newer development, we recommend using the nRF Connect SDK.. To flash an application onto a third party product, you will need to connect it through a JLink programmer or connecting it to the debug out pin of any one of our DK's as mentioned previously..

Best Regards,

Swathy

It says to program the nRF module need to solder SWD on the module and can use the J-Link programmer. So I want to confirm do I need any SDK for it too. Or I can just directly flash code to nRF52832 Bluefruit Module with the J-link programmer?

Hi Keshav,

Sorry.. But since Adafruit nRF52832 Bluefruit LE module is a third party module, it is not possible to program the 52832 chip directly by connecting using the usb cable.. you will need to program the SoC, by connecting the board to the debug-out port of either nRF5340-DK, nRF9160-DK or any other DK and then flashing the code.. In case of nRF5340-DK, your device need to be connected to P19 using a 10 pin cable.. See here: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf5340_dk/UG/dk/hw_debug_out.html?cp=3_0_4_3_9

Hello Swathy,

It doesn't show any devices under the " Connected device" section. I can't flash the code to module.

Hi Keshav,

Yes, I believe it should be enough to use the USB cable..
