VNG VBLUno52

Hardware

Platform Nordic nRF52: The nRF52 Series are built for speed to carry out increasingly complex tasks in the shortest possible time and return to sleep, conserving precious battery power. They have a Cortex-M4F processor which makes them quite capable Bluetooth Smart SoCs.

Configuration

Please use vbluno52 ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:vbluno52]
platform = nordicnrf52
board = vbluno52

You can override default VNG VBLUno52 settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest vbluno52.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:vbluno52]
platform = nordicnrf52
board = vbluno52

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = nrf52832

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 64000000L

Uploading

VNG VBLUno52 supports the following uploading protocols:

  • blackmagic

  • cmsis-dap

  • jlink

  • nrfjprog

  • stlink

Default protocol is cmsis-dap

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

[env:vbluno52]
platform = nordicnrf52
board = vbluno52

upload_protocol = cmsis-dap

Debugging

Debugging - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

Warning

You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

VNG VBLUno52 has on-board debug probe and IS READY for debugging. You don’t need to use/buy external debug probe.
