Introducing the nRF5340 DK

[@buzz1ebee]

Ordered one of these Dev boards and and excited to start developing a new wearable powered by it. I picked this platform due to the ease of use with zephyr rtos, the fantastic selection of connection options, and the power you get for such low current consumption. Can't wait to get started! Nice to see you active answering questions on KZbin too.

[@NordicSemi]

Thank you for your kind words, Tom! Let us know if we can be of any assistance, here or on DevZone. Good luck with your project.

[@kushagrapithadiya320]

I was about to order this device kit yesterday. Thanks a bunch Mate.😍😊

One of the best presenters of Nordic. Best explained.

[@aabdev]

Where can I find a sample project to build artefact for nRF5340 from Makefile ?

[@NordicSemi]

We do not have any sample projects for this. Zephyr is a CMake-based system so you must use Cmake to generate the build files. You can read more in the Zephyr documentation about application development: developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.0.1/zephyr/develop/application/index.html

I need to study electronic engineering!

[@NordicSemi]

Go for it!

[@aminollahzakizadeh5888]

I am sorry for telling you this ,but you must work on nrfconnect ide , it does not download and install properly and manual installing is like one thousand kilometers running

[@NordicSemi]

Did you try with TCM (Tool Chain Manager) app in nRF Connect for Desktop? This is the easiest way to get the nRF Connect SDK to your computer when running Windows or macOS. If you still have issues, please reach out to our tech support team on DevZone: devzone.nordicsemi.com

[@yaghiyahbrenner8902]

Does the new 53 dual core allow halting the main app CPU while the networking CPU run uninterrupted.?

[@NordicSemi]

Yes, that is possible. Please check out the sample-project "EMPTY_APP_CORE" in nRF Connect SDK: developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/nrf5340/empty_app_core/README.html For more technical questions please reach out to our tech support team on: devzone.nordicsemi.com

I want to use it in a follower robot project. Do you know how I can get AoA or AoD and what can I program it with?

[@NordicSemi]

AoA/AoD is supported by nRF52833 and nRF5340. On one end you need an antenna array, which can be bought by a 3rd party or you can reach out to a Nordic sales representative for recommendations. In our nRF Connect SDK you can find sample project for Direction Finding, one for transmission: developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/bluetooth/direction_finding_connectionless_tx/README.html and one for reception: developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/bluetooth/direction_finding_connectionless_rx/README.html

How much dBi of the antenna on this DK?

[@NordicSemi]

The dBi of the antenna on the nRF5340 DK is 0dBi.

[@aabdev]

Is it possible to obtain full schematic of this board?

[@NordicSemi]

Yes, you can find the full schematics in the hardware files that can be downloaded from the nRF5340 DK product page here: www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nRF5340-DK/Download

[@nixkoenner23]

can you mention the differences between the dk and the pdk?

[@NordicSemi]

The PDK is the development kit that use an engineering sample of the nRF5340 SoC, while DK uses the production version of the SoC.

[@kushagrapithadiya320]

@@NordicSemi Well Explained🥰😊

[@kushagrapithadiya320]

@@NordicSemi Can I order nRF5340 dev kit? If yes, please share the link. Thanks a bunch in advance.

[@kushagrapithadiya320]

Does it support usb 3.0? Also will sd140 work the same way?

[@1kreature]

@@NordicSemi My PDK kits do not have the USB populated next to the SoC. I assume this was not ready yet on the samples?
