.. zephyr:board:: serpente
Overview
********
The Serpente is a very small low-cost development and prototyping
board equipped with 4MiB flash storage, a PWM enabled RGB led and 6 I/O pins.
The board comes with 3 different USB connector options: USB Type-C plug,
USB Type-C socket and USB Type-A plug.
Hardware
********
- ATSAMD21E18A ARM Cortex-M0+ processor at 48 MHz
- 256 KiB flash memory and 32 KiB of RAM
- Extra 4MiB SPI flash memory
- RGB User LED
- Reset button
- Native USB port
Supported Features
==================
The Serpente board configuration supports the
following hardware features:
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| Interface | Controller | Driver/Component |
+===========+============+==========================================+
| NVIC | on-chip | nested vector interrupt controller |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| Flash | on-chip | Can be used with LittleFS to store files |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| SYSTICK | on-chip | systick |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| WDT | on-chip | Watchdog |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| GPIO | on-chip | I/O ports |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| PWM | on-chip | Pulse Width Modulation |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| USART | on-chip | Serial ports |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| SPI | on-chip | Serial Peripheral Interface ports |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
| USB | on-chip | USB device |
+-----------+------------+------------------------------------------+
Other hardware features are not currently supported by Zephyr.
The default configuration can be found in the Kconfig file
:zephyr_file:`boards/others/serpente/serpente_defconfig`.
Connections and IOs
===================
The `Serpente documentation`_ has detailed information about the board
including `pinouts`_ and the `schematic`_.
System Clock
============
The SAMD21 MCU is configured to use the 8MHz internal oscillator
with the on-chip PLL generating the 48 MHz system clock.
USB Device Port
===============
The SAMD21 MCU has a USB device port that can be used to communicate
with a host PC. See the :zephyr:code-sample-category:`usb` sample applications for
more, such as the :zephyr:code-sample:`usb-cdc-acm` sample which prints "Hello World!"
to the host PC.
Programming and Debugging
=========================
The Serpente ships the BOSSA compatible UF2 bootloader. The bootloader
can be entered by quickly tapping the reset button twice.
Flashing
========
#. Build the Zephyr kernel and the :zephyr:code-sample:`blinky` sample application:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
:board: serpente
:goals: build
:compact:
#. Connect the Serpente to your host computer using USB
#. Tap the reset button twice quickly to enter bootloader mode
#. Flash the image:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
:board: serpente
:goals: flash
:compact:
You should see the User LED blink.
