nrf52840 usb dongle setup issues

SethFlannigan last edited by

I've recently purchased an nrf52840 usb dongle and am having trouble getting it to show up on my com ports list as I can't seem to find a device driver for it. I'm trying to use the nrfutil on the command line and it requires the com port or the device's serial number and I can't find either. Is anyone familiar with this device? Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: I used a program (USBDeview) to list the connected usb devices and their info and "serial number" and "port" are blank for the nrf52840 dongle. Several other devices do not show a serial number or port so I can't be sure that this means anything.

@sundberg84 Yes, but I wonder if it will also work if I use the regular (round) THT pads from the Pro Mini (as the cheapest and most widely found Pro Minis seem to be like these) I'll probably just try it I guess, but of course have to adapt my PCB accordingly to get the castellated half holes. Hope my PCB manufacturer knows what to do with the KiCAD file. Pro Mini 3.3V 8M 5V 16M atmega328 Replace ATmega128 Arduino Compatible Nano New $1.96 3690 available

@torfinn These settings should make it work, regardless of which version you buy: // If you are using an RF-Nano, you have to switch CE and CS pins. #define MY_RF24_CS_PIN 9 // Used by the MySensors library. #define MY_RF24_CE_PIN 10 // Used by the MySensors library. // Enable and select radio type attached #define MY_RADIO_RF24 #define MY_RF24_PA_LEVEL RF24_PA_MAX // Mysensors advanced settings #define MY_RF24_DATARATE RF24_1MBPS // This datarate is supported by pretty much all NRF24 radios, including the RF-Nano.

A datasheet for the new nRF5340 is now available: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nRF5340_OPS_v0.5.1.pdf It has some improvements, but some of its competition seems to be much lower power.

@sglue Hello, I have these reed switches which have two output states... NO & NC. How would one go about have a two state reed switch on MySensors. I am trying to figure out how to do it on a NRF51822 chip on a coin cell battery. Basically I am trying to port this code into MySensors. MBED Link I need a starting point to take it forward. Any kind of help will be great. Thanks
Anyone tried the stc15l204? It appears to be an inexpensive integrated mcu + NRF24L01+

It's not a perfect pin-out match. You should definitely check out this thread: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/10327/rf-nano-nano-nrf24-for-just-3-50-on-aliexpress/1 But you're right, it's great for beginners. That's why it forms the basis of the Candle project.

Hello Before my post was approved last night I did realise I was missing capacitors on the rf24 modules. The node has the rf24 module powered from the 3.3v pin of the arduino mega. The raspberry pi gpio 3.3v is powering the other rf24. I have ordered some capacitors so will see if that helps when they arrive sometime next week. Thanks for the help
