Intro: With the ready built code of zephyr.hex file for net core and application core individually, we would like to proceed code flashing into the MDBT53/53V Nordic nRF5340 BLE module.
Ready Built Code Programming Steps
Step1.
Execute nRF Connect >> Programmer > > Open
Step2.
Click “SELECT DEVICE” >> Find icon of “nRF5340 DK” which is detected by the programmer app
Step3.
Click icon of “nRF5340 DK” >> “Erase All” to remove the flash memory from MDBT53/53V BLE Module
Step4.
Click “Add File” to load the net core zephyr.hex and application core zephyr.hex both into programmer
Step5.
Do “Erase & Write ” to execute the flashing process for both zephyr.hex into memory of MDBT53/53V Module.
Step6.
To validate the wireless broadcast of default name “Nordic_UART_Service” from MDBT53/53V Module, please check on the “nRF Connect for mobile” APP and do “Scan device” through your mobile. Once the device name is detected in your mobile , the wireless connection is successfully done.
Here provides thHere provides the easy introduction to the article of Hardware & Firmware Set up with step-by-step guideline for nRF5340 Module demo board MDBT53-DB-40/MDBT53V-DB-40.

Software Kits Resource & Preparation
To recognize your nRFConnect SDK version case by case
c. Locate all the necessary kits for programming in PC (Check Software/Application list)
3. To recognize your nRFConnect SDK version case by case
Intro: The preparation of nRF Connect SDK Vx.x.x(NCS SDK version, ) and Nordic Example code will help you get through the program code building and trace debug in VS Code IDE or Segger Embedded Studio IDE. Here’s the brief way to recognize your nRFConnect SDK version which suits your project development.
Step1.
Activated your “nRF Connect for Desktop” >> “Toolchain Manager” >> “Open” >> “Install”
(**Note: The development nRF Connect SDK(NCS) provides with free VS Code IDE and Segger Embedded Studio IDE as compiling system)
Step2.
To recognize your project is with or without Audio inquiry and download the “nRF Connect SDK(NCS)” by the following classification.
A.) Project with Non-Audio case
Option1. Go with NCS V1.9.1 (Included) and previous version.
There’re either “Open VS Code” or “Open Segger Embedded Studio” IDE options could be selected for program coding.
Option2. Go with NCS V2.0.0(included) and the later.
There’s simply “Open VS Code” IDE that could be run for program coding.
B.) Project with “Audio” inquiry
You would only have option of NCS V2.0.0(included) and the later version working in “Open VS Code” IDE.
Step3.
Please make sure the nRFConnect SDK is installed at same base directory with compiling system (the root of Open VS Code)
(This is using D:\ncs-work base as example.)
If the base is not directing to the same, do “Select directory’” to re-direct the route.
Step4.
