Edit GNU_VERSION to the corresponding gcc version pointed by GNU_INSTALL_ROOT.

The path should use slash instead of backslash and a final slash is needed.

Edit GNU_INSTALL_ROOT to point to something like that Replace USERNAME and the version accordingly to your PC.

Open “components\toolchain\gcc\Makefile.windows” with a text editor.

Extract the nRF5_SDK.zip to the workspace.

Create a folder that will be used as a workspace.

Scroll down and right click on the nRF5_SDK.zip to download it.

Avoid the unzip of Windows explorer, 7-Zip can be used instead.

Click on the OS version you need and download it.

Go to the download page of eclipse and scroll down to “Eclipse IDE for Embedded C/C++ Developers”.

Download and Install a Java Runtime Environment.

EclipseĮclipse is based on Java so it needs a JRE. It can be downloaded from segger and installed. Sometime nRF Command Line Tools fail to install Segger J-Link.

Download nRF Command Line Tools and install it.

The nRF Command Line Tools provide the probe driver and also nrfjprog for programming our target. This probe can also be used to debug an external target with the same SoC type. Npm install -global install -global install -global install -global install -global also need the driver for the debug probe, the nRF developpment kit use an On-board SEGGER J-Link debugger.

Open a CLI and install npm, xpm and the tools by typing the following:.

ToolchainĮclipse uses the GNU ARM toolchain, the different tools are available as xPacks so we need node.js, npm and xpm. If you are already tired of reading => TL DR.

If you have already installed eclipse, you can go to the next article that explain how to use a SDK example.

This guide is for Windows users but it can provide a general direction for other OSs as well. Nordic Semiconductor offers a free license to SEGGER Embedded Studio for development with nRF chips, but if you are like me and prefer to use the eclipse platform, here is a guide for installing it. Nordic Semiconductor promotes the use of the nRF Connect SDK, but I found it complex to use because it doesn’t allow bare metal (it works with the RTOS Zephyr Project) and force you to use new tools like DeviceTree and CMake that I’m not proficient with. Check it out here on the Nordic forums, but essentially you have to set this line to 0 in sdk_config.NRF5 SDK allows the development of software for the nRF51 and nRF52 SoCs. New lines printed on the debug terminal but no text? No output on the debug terminal?Ĭlose the RTT viewer since you can only have one RTT viewer open at any point in time. If the flags have been set and the correct config file is used, then you should start to see some output. #define NRF_LOG_ENABLED 1 Use the correct sdk_config.hįor some reason the example code for the TWI scanner did not work for me, and copy-pasting code from TWI sensor for the sdk_config.h file worked. Ensure flags have been setĮnsure that RTT logging has been enabled in sdk_config.h: Getting logging to work with the 15.3 SDK has been a long journey though, so I thought I might write down my process in getting the debug terminal to print out RTT messages. Segger Embedded Studio is a lightweight IDE that is used for Nordic devices.
