.. _frdm_mcxn947: NXP FRDM-MCXN947 ################ Overview ******** FRDM-MCXN947 are compact and scalable development boards for rapid prototyping of MCX N94 and N54 MCUs. They offer industry standard headers for easy access to the MCUs I/Os, integrated open-standard serial interfaces, external flash memory and an on-board MCU-Link debugger. MCX N Series are high-performance, low-power microcontrollers with intelligent peripherals and accelerators providing multi-tasking capabilities and performance efficiency. .. image:: frdm_mcxn947.webp :align: center :alt: FRDM-MCXN947 Hardware ******** - MCX-N947 Dual Arm Cortex-M33 microcontroller running at 150 MHz - 2MB dual-bank on chip Flash - 512 KB RAM - External Quad SPI flash over FlexSPI - USB high-speed (Host/Device) with on-chip HS PHY.

Other hardware features are not currently supported by the port.` Connections and IOs =================== The MCX-N947 SoC has 6 gpio controllers and has pinmux registers which can be used to configure the functionality of a pin. +------------+-----------------+----------------------------+ | Name | Function | Usage | +============+=================+============================+ | P0_PIO1_8 | UART | UART RX | +------------+-----------------+----------------------------+ | P1_PIO1_9 | UART | UART TX | +------------+-----------------+----------------------------+ System Clock ============ The MCX-N947 SoC is configured to use PLL0 running at 150MHz as a source for the system clock. Serial Port =========== The FRDM-MCXN947 SoC has 10 FLEXCOMM interfaces for serial communication. Flexcomm 4 is configured as UART for the console. Programming and Debugging ************************* Build and flash applications as usual (see :ref:`build_an_application` and :ref:`application_run` for more details). Configuring a Debug Probe ========================= A debug probe is used for both flashing and debugging the board. This board is configured by default to use the MCU-Link CMSIS-DAP Onboard Debug Probe. Using LinkServer ---------------- Linkserver is the default runner for this board. Follow the instructions in :ref:`mcu-link-cmsis-onboard-debug-probe` to progtam the MCU-Link firmware. This only needs to be done if the default onboard debug circuit firmware was changed. To put the board in ``DFU mode`` to program the firmware, short jumper J21. Using J-Link ------------ There are two options. The onboard debug circuit can be updated with Segger J-Link firmware by following the instructions in :ref:`mcu-link-jlink-onboard-debug-probe`. To put the board in ``DFU mode`` to program the firmware, short jumper J21. The second option is to attach :ref:`jlink-external-debug-probe` to the board. Use the ``-r jlink`` option with west to use the jlink runner. .. code-block:: console west flash -r jlink Configuring a Console ===================== Connect a USB cable from your PC to J17, and use the serial terminal of your choice (minicom, putty, etc.) with the following settings: - Speed: 115200 - Data: 8 bits - Parity: None - Stop bits: 1 Flashing ======== Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: frdm_mcxn947/mcxn947/cpu0 :goals: flash Open a serial terminal, reset the board (press the RESET button), and you should see the following message in the terminal: .. code-block:: console *** Booting Zephyr OS build v3.6.0-479-g91faa20c6741 *** Hello World! frdm_mcxn947 Debugging ========= Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: frdm_mcxn947/mcxn947/cpu0 :goals: debug Open a serial terminal, step through the application in your debugger, and you should see the following message in the terminal: .. code-block:: console *** Booting Zephyr OS build v3.6.0-479-g91faa20c6741 *** Hello World! frdm_mcxn947 .. _MCX-N947 SoC Website: https://www.nxp.com/products/processors-and-microcontrollers/arm-microcontrollers/general-purpose-mcus/mcx-arm-cortex-m/mcx-n-series-microcontrollers/mcx-n94x-54x-highly-integrated-multicore-mcus-with-on-chip-accelerators-intelligent-peripherals-and-advanced-security:MCX-N94X-N54X .. _MCX-N947 Datasheet: https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/data-sheet/MCXNx4xDS.pdf .. _MCX-N947 Reference Manual: https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=MCXNX4XRM .. _FRDM-MCXN947 Website: https://www.nxp.com/design/design-center/development-boards/general-purpose-mcus/frdm-development-board-for-mcx-n94-n54-mcus:FRDM-MCXN947 .. _FRDM-MCXN947 User Guide: https://www.nxp.com/document/guide/getting-started-with-frdm-mcxn947:GS-FRDM-MCXNXX .. _FRDM-MCXN947 Debug Firmware: https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN13206.pdf .. _FRDM-MCXN947 Schematics: https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=LPC55S69-SCH
