==Ethernet==
Ethernet port is associated to <code>eth0</code> interface on the J8 connector. It can be managed with standard Linux commands. See for example http://www.tecmint.com/ifconfig-command-examples/.
=== LED ===
The two LEDs, connected to the ethernet PHY are configured as ''Tri-color dual-LED mode'' (see more info in the [https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/00002117F.pdf#page=24 KSZ9031 datasheet]): link/activity for 100mbit/s and link/activity/ for 1000mbit/s.

==NOR and NAND flash==
{{ImportantMessage|text=NOR and NAND flash memories cannot be accessed at the same time because they shares some Zynq pins. In U-boot the switching between accesses to NOR and NAND is automatically done by U-boot itself. By default in kernel only NAND flash can be accessed. For NOR support in kernel please contact [mailto:support-bora@dave.eu technical support].}}
NOR and NAND flashes are managed as [[Memory_Tecnology_Device_(MTD)|MTD devices]].
Generally speaking, NAND flash memory is partitons partitions are defined using the kernel command line:<pre>Bora> pri mtdpartsmtdparts=mtdparts=pl35x-nand:256K(spl),768K(uboot),256K(env1),256K(env2),6M(fpga),512K(fdt),8M(kernel),-(nand-ubi)Bora></pre>adding <code>addmisc</code> to the <code>bootargs</code> parameters list. The kernel ''dmesg'' will configure the NAND partitions in the devitetreefollowing way:

==UART0==
UART0 is a spare UART device available on the JP17 PMOD connector. This device is routed through the PL.

<section begin=Power meter/>
== Power consumption ==
Power consumption measure can be performed accessing the [https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/ina226.pdf INA226] device connected to the I2C bus in the BoraEVB (U3). The following commands can be saved as a shell script (e.g. read_power_values) and run to collect the measurements data:
<pre>
root@bora:~# cat read_power_values.sh
#!/bin/sh
path_dev=/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0
IN1=`cat $path_dev/in1_input`
IN0=`cat $path_dev/in0_input`
VOLTAGE=`awk "BEGIN {print ($IN1-$IN0)/1000}"`
CURRENT=`cat $path_dev/curr1_input`
CURRENT=`awk "BEGIN {print ($CURRENT)/1000}"`
POWER=`cat $path_dev/power1_input`
POWER=`awk "BEGIN {print ($POWER)/1000000}"`
echo "Voltage: ${VOLTAGE}, Current: ${CURRENT}, Power:${POWER}"
