Confused by versions

OK, there are multiple versions of:

  • nRF51 chi
  • PCA10028 dev board
  • example projects
  • SDK
  • soft device
  • Keil dev environment

I getting all sorts of errors about the example projects referencing files that are not installed. If I hit OK through all those errors then the project builds. But when I try to download the hex file I get errors about the download failing.

My dev board is the PCA10028 version V1.1.0 The Nordic chip has the following printed on it:

NS1422

QFACA1

1503A0

My SDK is version 9.0.0

My version of Keil is MDK-Lite Version: 5.16a

My dev board is loaded with the S110 softdevice that came with the SDK. I'm not sure how to report the version of that.

What have I got wrong?

  • It looks like you are using old J-Link USB drivers. So first please try to upgrade your drivers. You'll find the latest J-LInk drivers here and you can update the Segger IC firmware on your kit by using the Segger J-Link Configuration tool. I don't really think it is the drivers that are causing your problems though.

    Have you installed the latest Microcontroller Development Kit, nRF5x_MDK_8_0_3_Keil4 found in the SDK zip file?

    Have you seen this and this link?

    You don't need to worry about the differences between 422 and 822. In terms of BLE applications they can be regarded as the exact same IC. All BLE code will run unmodified on both ICs. The only difference between the two is that the 422 has ANT capabilities as well.

    I cannot open your first link. Maybe you can edit your initial question and post the images in the post?
