Since the NRf52840 supports Zigbee, I was hoping to use the board to experiment a bit with Zigbee.
The Arduino libraries don't seem to include a Zigbee API, but the Nordic semiconductor NRF connect SDK does, and it also includes a lot of samples.
I was wondering if I can use the NRF connect SDK with the Adafruit Feather NRf52840. I have installed the toolchain and VS code, but at "connected devices" the board does not show up. I also tried the official Nordic semiconductor programmer, but when I select the board there, it shows:
Code: Select all
Unsupported device. The detected device could not be recognized as neither JLink device nor Nordic USB device.
There's some information there about needing a external programmer connected to the SWD header. Would that be the case for what I'm trying to do too?
Would I need something like this: https://www.adafruit.com/product/2209 (combined with https://www.adafruit.com/product/2094 and https://www.adafruit.com/product/1675) ?
