Flashing

Programs are loaded onto the pca10040 board using the nrfjprog command line utility program.

First install the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack from Segger: https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink/#J-LinkSoftwareAndDocumentationPack

Then install the nRF5x Command-Line Tools: https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/guides/tools/nordic_segger.html#nrf5x-command-line-tools-installation

Once you have installed both of these correctly, you will be able to flash the pca10040 board with your TinyGo code.

  • Plug your pca10040 into your computer’s USB port.
  • Build and flash your TinyGo program using tinygo flash -target=pca10040
