Hardware requirements

  • Mini/micro USB cable

  • EVK-MIMXRT1015 board

  • Personal Computer

Board settings

LPUART one board: Using instance 3 of LPUART interface to transfer data to itself. TX pin is connected with RX pin.

LPUART3    CONNECTS TO      LPUART3

TXD        J18-2              RXD       J17-8

Prepare the Demo

  1. Connect a USB cable between the host PC and the OpenSDA USB port on the target board.

  2. Open a serial terminal with the following settings:

    • 115200 baud rate

    • 8 data bits

    • No parity

    • One stop bit

    • No flow control

  3. Download the program to the target board.

  4. Either press the reset button on your board or launch the debugger in your IDE to begin running the demo.

Running the demo

When the demo runs successfully, the log would be seen on the OpenSDA terminal like:

LPUART 9-bit mode example begins
LPUART is configured with address, only data sent to itself after matched address can be received
LPUART will send first piece of data out:

0x 0  0x 1  0x 2  0x 3  0x 4  0x 5  0x 6  0x 7  
0x 8  0x 9  0x a  0x b  0x c  0x d  0x e  0x f  

LPUART will address itself
LPUART will send the other piece of data out:

0x10  0x11  0x12  0x13  0x14  0x15  0x16  0x17  
0x18  0x19  0x1a  0x1b  0x1c  0x1d  0x1e  0x1f  

LPUART received data:

0x10  0x11  0x12  0x13  0x14  0x15  0x16  0x17  
0x18  0x19  0x1a  0x1b  0x1c  0x1d  0x1e  0x1f  

All data matches!

Note: To debug in qspiflash, following steps are needed:

  1. Select the flash target and compile.

  2. Set the SW8: 1 off 2 off 3 on 4 off, then power on the board and connect USB cable to J41.

  3. Start debugging in IDE.

    • Keil: Click “Download (F8)” to program the image to qspiflash first then clicking “Start/Stop Debug Session (Ctrl+F5)” to start debugging.
