3.1.1.2 Procedure for Board Bring-up and Testing

Follow this procedure for board bring-up and testing:

  1. Configure the developing environment; for details, refer to the Processor SDK Getting Started Guide.
  2. After setting the correct configuration, modify the processor SDK by installing patch files for this reference design.
  3. Connect the board to the host machine through a UART to USB cable; configure the UART debug tools (super terminal, tera term, and so forth) with the correct serial port. Insert a microSD card containing an image of the modified Linux operating system.
  4. Power on the board on the voltage supply input with a 5-V DC.
