nRF MDKMicrocontroller development kit

Microcontroller development kit for nRF51, nRF52, nRF53 and nRF91 Series devices

The nRF MDK is the microcontroller development kit needed to interact with Nordic Semiconductor's SoCs and SIPs from a 3rd-party IDE.

The nRF MDK provides device support in the form of register header files and startup code to get you started developing with nRF51, nRF52, nRF53 and nRF91 Series devices faster.

It also handles configuration of the supported IDE's built-in programming and debugging tools.

Currently supporting GCC (GNU), IAR Systems, Keil and SEGGER Embedded Studio.

Since version 8.12.0 the nRF MDK has been available under two licenses:

  • 3-clause BSD. This is the same license as used for previous MDK releases.
  • 5-clause Nordic. This is intended for those who would like to align licenses introduced with nRF5 SDK v13.0 and MDK with their products.
