Serial Port
UART0 is configured for serial logs. The default serial setup is 115200 8N1.
Programming and Debugging
This board comes with a Cortex ETM port which facilitates tracing and debugging using a single physical connection. In addition, it comes with sockets for JTAG-only sessions.
Flashing
If the correct headers are installed, this board supports J-TAG.
To flash with J-TAG, install the drivers for your programmer, for example: SEGGER J-link’s drivers are at https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink/
Here is an example for the Hello World application.
# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b npcm400_evb samples/hello_world
west flash
Open a serial terminal, and you should see the following message in the terminal:
Hello World! npcm400_evb/npcm400
Debugging
Use JTAG/SWD with a J-Link
