How To USE Nordic Connect SDK (NCS) Flashing Built Code into nRF5340 Module

Intro:  With the ready built code of zephyr.hex file for net core and application core individually, we would like to proceed code flashing into the MDBT53/53V Nordic nRF5340 BLE module.


Step1.  

Execute nRF Connect >>  Programmer  > > Open




Step2. 

Click “SELECT DEVICE” >> Find icon of “nRF5340 DK” which is detected by the programmer app





Step3. 

Click icon of “nRF5340 DK” >> “Erase All” to remove the flash memory from MDBT53/53V BLE Module







Step4.

Click “Add File” to load the net core zephyr.hex and application core zephyr.hex both into programmer







Step5.

Do “Erase & Write ” to execute the flashing process for both zephyr.hex into memory of MDBT53/53V Module.




Step6.

To validate the wireless broadcast of default name “Nordic_UART_Service” from MDBT53/53V Module, please check on the “nRF Connect for mobile” APP and do “Scan device” through your mobile.   Once the device name is detected in your mobile , the wireless connection is successfully done.

    1.3  To recognize your nRFConnect SDK version case by case

     

    Intro: The preparation of nRF Connect SDK Vx.x.x(NCS SDK version, ) and Nordic Example code will help you get through the program code building and trace debug in VS Code IDE or Segger Embedded Studio IDE. Here’s the brief way to recognize your nRFConnect SDK version which suits your project development.

     

    Step1.

     

      Activated your “nRF Connect for Desktop” 一張含有 文字, 標誌, 室外 的圖片

自動產生的描述 >> “Toolchain Manager” >> “Open” >> “Install”

     

    (**Note: The development nRF Connect SDK(NCS) provides with free VS Code IDE and Segger Embedded Studio IDE as compiling system)

     

     

    Step2.

    To recognize your project is with or without Audio inquiry and download the “nRF Connect SDK(NCS)” by the following classification.

     

    A.) Project with Non-Audio case

     

    Option1. Go with NCS V1.9.1 (Included) and previous version.

    There’re either “Open VS Code” or “Open Segger Embedded Studio” IDE options could be selected for program coding.

    Option2. Go with NCS V2.0.0(included) and the later.

     There’s simply “Open VS Code” IDE that could be run for program coding.

     

     

     

    B.) Project with “Audio” inquiry


    You would only have option of NCS V2.0.0(included) and the later version working in “Open VS Code” IDE.

     

    Step3.

     Please make sure the nRFConnect SDK is installed at same base directory with compiling system  (the root of Open VS Code)

     

    (This is using D:\ncs-work base as example.)

Nordic nRF5340 Module MDBT53 and MDBT53V By Raytac Corporation

Nordic nF5340 is the first wireless SoC with dual core processors which aimed to optimized the performance of complex IoT applications and LE audios. The dual core contains a 1MB Flash / 512K RAM M4F MCU for application processor and another 256K Flash / 64K RAM for network. This structure remarkable optimized the performance also low power efficiency.

Raytac released 5 modules with 2 form factors, MDBT53 and MDBT53V,  with different antenna options for selection. The modules deployed nRF53 SoC supports high-speed SPI, QSPI, USB, I2C, I2S, and NFC interface and 105°C industrial temperature specification. BT5.3 pre-qualified, FCC/IC/CE/Telec (MIC)/KC/SRRC/NCC pre-certified is a MUST for all Raytac modules.

MDBT53 is a System-on-Module (aka SoM) with a good size of 9.3mm x 14.3mm and 48 GPIO which is an ideal dimension to fit in most applications. MDBT53 provides 3 antenna options, Chip antenna; PCB antenna; and u.FL connector for external antenna which deliver a maximum feasibility for most IoT projects.

MDBT53-1M (Chip Antenna)

MDBT53-P1M (PCB Antenna)

MDBT53-U1M (u.FL Connector for External Antenna) 


MDBT53V is designated for the application which has a space constraint design. A 7.8mm x 12.4mm with 25 GPIO is small enough to offer the opportunity of employing nRF5340 modules in the project. MDBT53V provides 2 options of antenna, Chip and PCB, for developers’ selection which is capable of optimizing the project plan in terms of performance and budgetary.
