Programming a chip externally using nRF51-DK

[Ehsan]

Is it possible to program the Atmel SAM D20E chip (based on an ARM-M0 cortex processor) externally using the P19 debug out header on the nRF51-DK?

Thanks.

Yes and no. The chip is a Cortex M0+ so it can be programmed over SWD with a JLink and debug out is a JLink. However the onboard JLink is licensed only for programming Nordic chips and if you have any recent version of the JLink software on it you may well find that the ability which used to exist to program other chips, has been disabled.
