SwiftIO

Overview

The SwiftIO board, designed by MadMachine is the world’s first board designed with support for the modern Swift language. Zephyr provides basic low-level capabilities for the SwiftIO board. Swift application would run on top of Zephyr. More information about the board can be found at:

Hardware

  • i.MX RT1052 Cortex-M7 processor at 600MHz

  • 8MB QSPI Flash, 32MB SDRAM

  • On-board DAPLink debugger with serial port

  • User RGB LED, USB 2.0 Connector, microSD slot

Programming and Flash

Build applications as usual (see Building an Application for more details).

Configuring a Debug Probe

This board is configured by default to use the OpenSDA DAPLink Onboard Debug Probe, however the pyOCD Debug Host Tools do not yet support programming the external flashes on this board so you must flash the device by copying files

Configuring a Console

Regardless of your choice in debug probe, we will use the OpenSDA microcontroller as a USB-to-serial adapter for the serial console.

Connect a USB cable from your PC to Serial of SwiftIO.

Use the following settings with your serial terminal of choice (minicom, putty, etc.):

  • Speed: 115200

  • Data: 8 bits

  • Parity: None

  • Stop bits: 1

Flashing

Here is an example for the Hello World application.

Connect a USB cable from your PC to “Serial” port of SwiftIO. On Ubuntu, DAPLink debug probes appear on the host computer as a USB disk mounted to /media/<user>/SWIFTIODBGR/, where <user> is your login name.

west build -b mm_swiftio samples/hello_world
cp build/zephyr/zephyr.bin /media/<user>/SWIFTIODBGR/

Open a serial terminal, reset the board (press the “reset” button), and you should see the following message in the terminal:

***** Booting Zephyr OS v2.1.0-rc1 *****
Hello World! mm_swiftio
