Figure 22: Debug input connector and trace footprint
To utilize the SW trace feature on nRF9160, a footprint for a 20-pin connector is available (
P25
). If trace
functionality is required, a 2×10 pin 1.27 mm pitch surface mount connector can be mounted. nRF9160
s used for the trace interface will not be available for application firmware use during trace.
Note:
Connectors
P18
and
P25
overlap and share the same footprint.
