NOTE 1: please fork this repo if using for your own use. I don't intend for this to be a central resource for airtag RE, more just some useful references for you to build on.
NOTE 2: This repo will not have any firmware or similar. Issues are disabled because the repo does not have any issues, it's perfect.

| 35 | nRF ball F1 (SWCLK) |
*NOTE: The big pads under the VCC1/VCC2 battery terminals are NOT connected. So if you remove the battery terminals you need to solder to the smaller pads where the terminals connected!
The SPI connections (SCK/DI/DO/CS) are as above. If talking to the SPI flash chip note the following:
- You need to apply 1.8V on test point 21 to force the flash on.
- The nRF occasionally talks to SPI flash (especially when stuff like adding a device happens) which will interrupt this. But most of time the flash is powered off and thus the pins are tri-stated.
The nrf controls power to the SPI flash, so you need to override it by supplying 1.8V on test point 21.
