Nrf5340 custom bord debugging

Hi,

I want to debug my nrf5340 custom board with logger method. I have tried to follow the Nordic's nrf connect SDK course. And I have written the code and just flashed it in my custom board. But, nothing is print on nrf terminal of visual studio code. I need to know the step by step procedure for debug in custom board. Kindly guide to get it done.

Thanks &Regards

Hello Navin,

Did you build the application with the boardfile of the custom board or with the nordic dk ? There could be difference in board file if custom board is not identical to our DK. Here is the guidelines for creating the overlay file Creating an overlay file - nRF Connect extensions for VS Code.

Thanks.

Hello Navin,

RTT works over SWD. Logging can be done either over RTT or UART, depending on the configuration in the application. You can ''debug'' an application by sending strings over UART to observe what is happening in the application.

Thanks.

Hi Kazi,

Thank you for the response. I need to know one more thing by connecting the DK with the custom board via SWD cable, can I be able to create a log, and also it will work over RTT?. If that is possible. Kindly let me know how I can do that in Visual Studio Code IDE. And I have added my prj config file KIndly check the configurations are correct

Thanks & Regards,
