There are some important things about the nRF9160 Feather before you get started:

  1. If you haven't you can get a nRF9160 Feather at our store or directly from Digikey!
  2. The nRF9160 Feather shouldn't be used with a battery less than 300mAH. More information in the specs section.
  3. If you need to debug your nRF9160 Feather, it requires an external programmer. More information on that in the Requirements for external programming section.
  4. If you're new to Zephyr, be sure to check out the Zephyr 101 series on Youtube!
