About:
The nRF Command Line Tools provide a suite of utilities for programming and managing Nordic semiconductor devices. It includes nrfjprog for flashing firmware and J-Link drivers for debugging. These tools are essential for developers building IoT and embedded applications with nRF52 and nRF53 series chips.
Key Features:
  • Flash programming and erasing via nrfjprog
  • Integration with J-Link debug probes
  • Support for nRF52, nRF53, and nRF91 Series
  • Command-line interface for automation
Use Cases:
  • Flashing firmware onto Nordic development kits
  • Automating build and deploy pipelines for embedded projects
  • Debugging and memory inspection during development
Alternatives:
  • openocd – Open-source debugger that supports Nordic chips but requires more configuration than nrfjprog
  • pyOCD – Python-based debugger; more flexible but less optimized for Nordic-specific workflows
