4.15 Additional interfaces
The nRF9160 DK supports a few dedicated interfaces.
external interfaces
Coexistence interface
On the nRF9160 DK, there are three COEX pins enabling coexistence handling between multiple wireless
devices. These pins are routed to nRF52840 for use when nRF52840 is used as a network processor. These
signals are also available on connector
P24
. In addition, COEX0 is used to enable the
of the
nRF9160 DK.
RF control interface
The nRF9160 DK has an interface allowing the modem to control external RF applications, such as antenna
tuner devices. There are three MIPI RFFE interface pins, namely, VIO, SCLK, SDATA and three MAGPIO
interface pins, namely, MAGPIO0, MAGPIO1, MAGPIO2. The MAGPIOs and MIPI RFFE pins are not in use in
. The signals are accessed through test points listed in the following table.
