The nRF5340 PDK includes an NFC antenna that quickly enables testing of nRF5340 SoC’s NFC-A tag peripheral. A SEGGER J-Link debugger is on the board, enabling full-blown programming and debugging, of both the nR5340 SoC and external targets.

All analog and digital interfaces, and GPIOs are available via connectors. The PDK is Arduino Uno Rev3 hardware compatible, it can be easily interfaced with external device shields, including the Power Profiler Kit. 

It can be powered by USB or by an external source, but also includes a CR2032 battery holder and a Li-Po battery connector, for in-field testing. Power consumption can be measured with dedicated power measurement pins.

The nRF Connect SDK is the software development kit for the nRF5340 SoC and has board support for the nRF5340 PDK. It offers a complete solution that integrates the Zephyr RTOS, protocol stacks, application examples and hardware drivers. nRF Connect SDK is publicly hosted on GitHub, offers source code management with Git and has free SEGGER Embedded Studio IDE support. 

The nRF5340 PDK is for evaluation purposes only, it is a preview development kit, and will be replaced by the nRF5340 DK.
The box includes an nRF5340 PDK, an NFC antenna and a CR2032 battery.
