RE: Using TI's JLink debugger to program NRF thingy 53

Hi,

nrfjprog only works with Segger J-Link debug probes, and according to the page you linked to this is not a J-Link: "The Debugger DevPack is a small form-factor XDS110 debugger". The XDS110 debugger is a TI product I have no knowledge about, but I see it supports SWD, so in theory it can be used to debug nRF devices with the proper SW support, but that is not something we provide unfortunately.

You need to use some form of J-Link debugger compatible with ARMv8, like the nRF5340 DK you have. With the right 10 min cable it works out of the box, but as you write it is not included.
