J42Edit

Pin# Pin name Pin function Pin Notes
1 TX UART1_TX LVTTL signal
2 RX UART1_RX LVTTL signal
3 VDD 3V3 powered by internal PMIC
4 DGND GND

Device mappingEdit

UART1 is mapped to /dev/ttymxc0 device in Linux. The peripheral is used as the default serial console, both for the bootloader and the kernel.

Device usageEdit

To connect to the debug serial port:

  1. connect an UART transceiver (eg: TTL-232RGVIP-WE) to J42 and to a workstation
    • leave J42.3 unconnected if the transceiver is self powered
  2. start your favorite terminal emulator software on PC (eg: PuTTY); communication parameters are: 115200,8N1
