 I think this question is generic and covers all Nordic chipsets. Anyhow, I&amp;#39;m planning to use a nRF52810 but I don&amp;#39;t have a board to confirm this yet. 
 Question is: 
 It is possible to use SWD pins as UART?

&lt;p&gt;As &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/members/zara-wu-"&gt;Zara Wu&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;mentioned, the SWDCLK and SWDIO pins cannot be used for anything else and you can only use the Digital I/O pins mentioned in the Product Specification for the UART.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Per our understanding, SWD does not support multiplexing as&amp;nbsp;UART pin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
