Solder bridge configuration

nRF9151 SMA DK Hardware

The nRF9151 SMA DK has a range of solder bridges for enabling or disabling functionality on the DK. Changes to these are not needed for normal use of the DK.

The following table is a complete overview of the solder bridges on the nRF9151 SMA DK.
