Hardware requirements

  • Type-C USB cable

  • MCX-W72-EVK Board

  • Personal Computer

Board settings

  1. To wakeup the chip via VBAT, please connect a signal to TP1, and the falling edge will wakeup the chip.

  2. To test PowerSwitchOff(Smart power switch) mode, cut the SH9 trace between P3V3_DUT and VDD_REG, then populate a 0-ed ohm resistor in SH9 to connect VDD_REG and VOUT_SWITCH nodes.

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 running the demo, the debug console shows the menu to command the MCU to the target power mode.

NOTE: Only input when the demo asks for input. Input entered at any other time might cause the debug console to overflow and receive the wrong input value.
