This circuit offers several options for serial communication, flash programming, and run-control debugging. OpenSDAv2 is an mbed HDK-compatible debug interface preloaded with the open-source CMSIS-DAP Interface firmware (mbed interface) for rapid prototyping and product development. To use set raw binary output for nuttx.bin Serial Console ============== USB VCOM Console ---------------- The primary serial port interface signals are PTB16 UART0_RX and PTB17 UART0_TX. These signals are connected to the OpenSDAv2 VCOM circuit. Serial Shield Console --------------------- An alternative serial port might use a standard serial shield mounted on the Freedom Board. In this case, Arduino pin D1 provides UART TX and pin D0 privides UART RX. The I/O headers on the FRDM-K64F board are arranged to enable compatibility with Arduino shield. The outer rows of pins (even numbered pins) on the headers, share the same mechanical spacing and placement with the I/O headers on the Arduino Revision 3 (R3) standard. The Arduino D0 and D1 pins then correspond to pins 2 and 4 on the J1 I/O connector: Arduino Pin FRDM-K64F J1 Connector ------------------------ ----------------------- UART TX, Arduino D1 pin Pin 4, PTC17, UART3_TX UART RX, Arduino D0 pin Pin 2, PTC16, UART3_RX Default Serial Console ---------------------- By default, these configuration are setup to use the Serial Console on UART3. That, however, is easily reconfigured. LEDs and Buttons ================ RGB LED ------- An RGB LED is connected through GPIO as shown below: LED K64 ------ ------------------------------------------------------- RED PTB22/SPI2_SOUT/FB_AD29/CMP2_OUT BLUE PTB21/SPI2_SCK/FB_AD30/CMP1_OUT GREEN PTE26/ENET_1588_CLKIN/UART4_CTS_b/RTC_CLKOUT/USB0_CLKIN If CONFIG_ARCH_LEDs is defined, then NuttX will control the LED on board the Freedom KL25Z. Usage of these LEDs is defined in include/board.h and src/k64_leds.c. The following definitions describe how NuttX controls the LEDs: SYMBOL Meaning LED state RED GREEN BLUE ------------------- ----------------------- ----------------- LED_STARTED NuttX has been started OFF OFF OFF LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF OFF ON LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled OFF OFF ON LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created OFF ON OFF LED_INIRQ In an interrupt (no change) LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler (no change) LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed (no change) LED_PANIC The system has crashed FLASH OFF OFF LED_IDLE K64 is in sleep mode (Optional, not used) Buttons ------- Two push buttons, SW2 and SW3, are available on FRDM-K64F board, where SW2 is connected to PTC6 and SW3 is connected to PTA4. Besides the general purpose input/output functions, SW2 and SW3 can be low-power wake up signal. Also, only SW3 can be a non-maskable interrupt.

First you see that NSH has several new network related commands: ifconfig, ifdown, ifup: Commands to help manage your network get and put: TFTP file transfers wget: HTML file transfers ping: Check for access to peers on the network Telnet console: You can access the NSH remotely via telnet. You can also enable other add on features like full FTP or a Web Server or XML RPC and others. There are also other features that you can enable like DHCP client (or server) or network name resolution. By default, the IP address of the FRDM-K64F will be 10.0.0.2 and it will assume that your host is the gateway and has the IP address 10.0.0.1. nsh> ifconfig eth0 HWaddr 00:e0:de:ad:be:ef at UP IPaddr:10.0.0.2 DRaddr:10.0.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.0 You can use ping to test for connectivity to the host (Careful, Window firewalls usually block ping-related ICMP traffic). On the target side, you can: nsh> ping 10.0.0.1 PING 10.0.0.1 56 bytes of data 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=4 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=5 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=6 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=7 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=8 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=9 time=0 ms 56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=10 time=0 ms 10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 10100 ms NOTE: In this configuration is is normal to have packet loss > 0% the first time you ping due to the default handling of the ARP table. On the host side, you should also be able to ping the FRDM-K64F: $ ping 10.0.0.2 You can also log into the NSH from the host PC like this: $ telnet 10.0.0.2 Trying 10.0.0.2... Connected to 10.0.0.2.

That is because the start-up logic waits for the network connection to be established before starting NuttX. In a real application, you would probably want to do the network bringup on a separate thread so that access to the NSH prompt is not delayed. This delay will be especially long if the board is not connected to a network. On the order of minutes! You will probably think that NuttX has crashed! And then, when it finally does come up after numerous timeouts and retries, the network will not be available -- even if the network cable is plugged in later. The long delays can be eliminated by using a separate the network initialization thread discussed below. Recovering after the network becomes available requires the network monitor feature, also discussed below. Network Initialization Thread ----------------------------- There is a configuration option enabled by CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_THREAD that will do the NSH network bring-up asynchronously in parallel on a separate thread. This eliminates the (visible) networking delay altogether. This current implementation, however, has some limitations: - If no network is connected, the network bring-up will fail and the network initialization thread will simply exit. There are no retries and no mechanism to know if the network initialization was successful (it could perform a network Ioctl to see if the link is up and it now, keep trying, but it does not do that now). - Furthermore, there is currently no support for detecting loss of network connection and recovery of the connection (similarly, this thread could poll periodically for network status, but does not). Both of these shortcomings could be eliminated by enabling the network monitor: Network Monitor --------------- By default the network initialization thread will bring-up the network then exit, freeing all of the resources that it required. This is a good behavior for systems with limited memory. If the CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_MONITOR option is selected, however, then the network initialization thread will persist forever; it will monitor the network status. In the event that the network goes down (for example, if a cable is removed), then the thread will monitor the link status and attempt to bring the network back up. In this case the resources required for network initialization are never released. Pre-requisites: - CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_THREAD as described above. - The K64F EMAC block does not support PHY interrupts. The KSZ8081 PHY interrupt line is brought to a jumper block and it should be possible to connect that some some interrupt port pin. You would need to provide some custom logic in the Freedcom K64F configuration to set up that PHY interrupt. - In addtion to the PHY interrupt, the Network Monitor also requires the following setting: CONFIG_NETDEV_PHY_IOCTL. Enable PHY IOCTL commands in the Ethernet device driver. Special IOCTL commands must be provided by the Ethernet driver to support certain PHY operations that will be needed for link management. There operations are not complex and are implemented for the Atmel SAMA5 family. CONFIG_ARCH_PHY_INTERRUPT. This is not a user selectable option. Rather, it is set when you select a board that supports PHY interrupts. For the K64F, like most other architectures, the PHY interrupt must be provided via some board-specific GPIO. In any event, the board-specific logic must provide support for the PHY interrupt. To do this, the board logic must do two things: (1) It must provide the function arch_phy_irq() as described and prototyped in the nuttx/include/nuttx/arch.h, and (2) it must select CONFIG_ARCH_PHY_INTERRUPT in the board configuration file to advertise that it supports arch_phy_irq(). And a few other things: UDP support is required (CONFIG_NET_UDP) and signals must not be disabled (CONFIG_DISABLE_SIGNALS). Given those prerequisites, the network monitor can be selected with these additional settings.

This slot will accept micro format SD memory cards. The SD card detect pin (PTE6) is an open switch that shorts with VDD when card is inserted. ------------ ------------- -------- SD Card Slot Board Signal K64F Pin ------------ ------------- -------- DAT0 SDHC0_D0 PTE1 DAT1 SDHC0_D1 PTE0 DAT2 SDHC0_D2 PTE5 CD/DAT3 SDHC0_D3 PTE4 CMD SDHC0_CMD PTE3 CLK SDHC0_DCLK PTE2 SWITCH D_CARD_DETECT PTE6 ------------ ------------- -------- There is no Write Protect pin available to the K64F. Configuration Settings ---------------------- Enabling SDHC support. The Freedom K64F provides one microSD memory card slot. Support for the SD slots can be enabled with the following settings: System Type->Kinetic Peripheral Selection CONFIG_KINETIS_SDHC=y : To enable SDHC0 support CONFIG_KINETIS_SDHC_DMA=y : Use SDIO DMA System Type CONFIG_KINETIS_GPIOIRQ=y : GPIO interrupts needed CONFIG_KINETIS_PORTEINTS=y : Card detect pin is on PTE6 Device Drivers -> MMC/SD Driver Support CONFIG_MMCSD=y : Enable MMC/SD support CONFIG_MMSCD_NSLOTS=1 : One slot per driver instance CONFIG_MMCSD_MULTIBLOCK_DISABLE=y : (REVISIT) CONFIG_MMCSD_HAVE_CARDDETECT=y : Supports card-detect PIOs CONFIG_MMCSD_MMCSUPPORT=n : Interferes with some SD cards CONFIG_MMCSD_SPI=n : No SPI-based MMC/SD support CONFIG_MMCSD_SDIO=y : SDIO-based MMC/SD support CONFIG_SDIO_BLOCKSETUP=y : Needs to know block sizes RTOS Features -> Work Queue Support CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : Driver needs work queue support CONFIG_SCHED_HPWORK=y Application Configuration -> NSH Library CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : NSH board-initialization, and CONFIG_LIB_BOARDCTL=y : Or CONFIG_BOARD_INITIALIZE=y Using the SD card ----------------- 1. After booting, the SDHC device will appear as /dev/mmcsd0. 2. If you try mounting an SD card with nothing in the slot, the mount will fail: nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sd0 nsh: mount: mount failed: 19 NSH can be configured to provide errors as strings instead of numbers. But in this case, only the error number is reported. The error numbers can be found in nuttx/include/errno.h: #define ENODEV 19 #define ENODEV_STR "No such device" So the mount command is saying that there is no device or, more correctly, that there is no card in the SD card slot. 3. Insert the SD card. Then the mount should succeed. nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sd0 nsh> ls /mnt/sd1 /mnt/sd1: atest.txt nsh> cat /mnt/sd1/atest.txt This is a test NOTE: See the next section entitled "Auto-Mounter" for another way to mount your SD card. 4. Before removing the card, you must umount the file system. This is equivalent to "ejecting" or "safely removing" the card on Windows: It flushes any cached data to an SD card and makes the SD card unavailable to the applications. nsh> umount -t /mnt/sd0 It is now safe to remove the card. NuttX provides into callbacks that can be used by an application to automatically unmount the volume when it is removed. But those callbacks are not used in these configurations. Auto-Mounter ------------ NuttX implements an auto-mounter than can make working with SD cards easier. With the auto-mounter, the file system will be automatically mounted when the SD card is inserted into the SDHC slot and automatically unmounted when the SD card is removed. Here is a sample configuration for the auto-mounter: File System Configuration CONFIG_FS_AUTOMOUNTER=y Board-Specific Options CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT=y CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT_FSTYPE="vfat" CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT_BLKDEV="/dev/mmcsd0" CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT_MOUNTPOINT="/mnt/sdcard" CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT_DDELAY=1000 CONFIG_FRDMK64F_SDHC_AUTOMOUNT_UDELAY=2000 WARNING: SD cards should never be removed without first unmounting them. This is to avoid data and possible corruption of the file system. Certainly this is the case if you are writing to the SD card at the time of the removal. If you use the SD card for read-only access, however, then I cannot think of any reason why removing the card without mounting would be harmful. USB Device Controller Support ============================== USB Device Controller Support ----------------------------- The USBHS device controller driver is enabled with he following configurationsettings: Device Drivers -> USB Device Driver Support CONFIG_USBDEV=y : Enable USB device support For full-speed/low-power mode: CONFIG_USBDEV_DUALSPEED=n : Disable High speed support For high-speed/normal mode: CONFIG_USBDEV_DUALSPEED=y : Enable High speed support CONFIG_USBDEV_DMA=y : Enable DMA methods CONFIG_USBDEV_MAXPOWER=100 : Maximum power consumption CONFIG_USBDEV_SELFPOWERED=y : Self-powered device System Type -> Kinetis Peripheral Selection CONFIG_KINETIS_USBOTG=y CDC/ACM Device Class -------------------- In order to be usable, you must all enabled some class driver(s) for the USBHS device controller. Here, for example, is how to configure the CDC/ACM serial device class: Device Drivers -> USB Device Driver Support CONFIG_CDCACM=y : USB Modem (CDC ACM) support CONFIG_CDCACM_EP0MAXPACKET=64 : Enpoint 0 packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPINTIN=1 : Interrupt IN endpoint number CONFIG_CDCACM_EPINTIN_FSSIZE=64 : Full speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPINTIN_HSSIZE=64 : High speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKOUT=3 : Bulk OUT endpoint number CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKOUT_FSSIZE=64 : Full speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKOUT_HSSIZE=512 : High speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKIN=2 : Bulk IN endpoint number CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKIN_FSSIZE=64 : Full speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_EPBULKIN_HSSIZE=512 : High speed packet size CONFIG_CDCACM_NWRREQS=4 : Number of write requests CONFIG_CDCACM_NRDREQS=8 : Number of read requests CONFIG_CDCACM_BULKIN_REQLEN=96 : Size of write request buffer (for full speed) CONFIG_CDCACM_BULKIN_REQLEN=768 : Size of write request buffer (for high speed) CONFIG_CDCACM_RXBUFSIZE=257 : Serial read buffer size CONFIG_CDCACM_TXBUFSIZE=193 : Serial transmit buffer size (for full speed) CONFIG_CDCACM_TXBUFSIZE=769 : Serial transmit buffer size (for high speed) CONFIG_CDCACM_VENDORID=0x0525 : Vendor ID CONFIG_CDCACM_PRODUCTID=0xa4a7 : Product ID CONFIG_CDCACM_VENDORSTR="NuttX" : Vendor string CONFIG_CDCACM_PRODUCTSTR="CDC/ACM Serial" : Product string Device Drivers -> Serial Driver Support CONFIG_SERIAL_REMOVABLE=y : Support for removable serial device The CDC/ACM application provides commands to connect and disconnect the CDC/ACM serial device: CONFIG_SYSTEM_CDCACM=y : Enable connect/disconnect support CONFIG_SYSTEM_CDCACM_DEVMINOR=0 : Use device /dev/ttyACM0 CONFIG_CDCACM_RXBUFSIZE=??? : A large RX may be needed If you include this CDC/ACM application, then you can connect the CDC/ACM serial device to the host by entering the command 'sercon' and you detach the serial device with the command 'serdis'. If you do no use this application, they you will have to write logic in your board initialization code to initialize and attach the USB device. Development Environment ======================= Either Linux or Cygwin on Windows can be used for the development environment. The source has been built only using the GNU toolchain (see below). Other toolchains will likely cause problems. Testing was performed using the Cygwin environment. GNU Toolchain Options ===================== The NuttX make system supports several GNU-based toolchains under Linux, Cygwin under Windows, and Windows native. To select a toolchain: 1. Use 'make menuconfig' and select the toolchain that you are using under the System Type menu. 2. The default toolchain is the NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin: CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y You may also have to modify the PATH environment variable if your make cannot find the tools. NOTE: Using native Windows toolchains under Cygwin has some limitations. This incuudes the CodeSourcery (for Windows) and devkitARM toolchains are Windows native toolchains. The biggest limitations are: 1. The Windows toolchain cannot follow Cygwin paths. Path conversions are performed automatically in the Cygwin makefiles using the 'cygpath' utility but you might easily find some new path problems. If so, check out 'cygpath -w' 2. Windows toolchains cannot follow Cygwin symbolic links. Many symbolic links are used in Nuttx (e.g., include/arch). The make system works around these problems for the Windows tools by copying directories instead of linking them. But this can also cause some confusion for you: For example, you may edit a file in a "linked" directory and find that your changes had no effect. That is because you are building the copy of the file in the "fake" symbolic directory. If you use a Windows toolchain, you should get in the habit of making like this: make clean_context all An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful.

CONFIG_UARTn_PARTIY - 0=no parity, 1=odd parity, 2=even parity Kenetis ethernet controller settings CONFIG_ENET_NRXBUFFERS - Number of RX buffers. The size of one buffer is determined by CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. Default: 6 CONFIG_ENET_NTXBUFFERS - Number of TX buffers. The size of one buffer is determined by CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. Default: 2 CONFIG_ENET_USEMII - Use MII mode. Default: RMII mode. CONFIG_ENET_PHYADDR - PHY address Configurations ============== Each Freedom K64F configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and can be selected as follow: tools/configure.sh freedom-k64f/ Where is one of the following: netnsh: ------ This configuration is identical to the nsh configuration described below except that networking support is enabled. NOTES: 1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To change this configuration using that tool, you should: a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository. b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the reconfiguration process. 2. Default platform/toolchain: CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Cygwin under Windows CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : ARM/mbed toolcahin (arm-none-elf-gcc) CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=y : Output formats: Intel hex binary 3. The Serial Console is provided on UART3 with the correct pin configuration for use with an Arduino Serial Shield. 4. SDHC support is not enabled in this configuration. Refer to the configuration settings listed above under "SD Card Support". 5. Support for NSH built-in applications is enabled, but no built-in applications have been configured in. 6. No external pullup is available on MDIO signal when MK64FN1M0VLL12 MCU is requests status of the Ethernet link connection. Internal pullup is required when port configuration for MDIO signal is enabled: CONFIG_KINETIS_ENET_MDIOPULLUP=y 7. Configured to use a fixed IPv4 address: CONFIG_NSH_IPADDR=0x0a000002 CONFIG_NSH_DRIPADDR=0x0a000001 CONFIG_NSH_NETMASK=0xffffff00 And a bogus MAC address: CONFIG_NSH_NOMAC=y CONFIG_NSH_SWMAC=y CONFIG_NSH_MACADDR=0x00e0deadbeef nsh: --- Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh using a serial console on UART3. NOTES: 1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To change this configuration using that tool, you should: a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository. b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the reconfiguration process. 2. Default platform/toolchain: CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Cygwin under Windows CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : ARM/mbed toolcahin (arm-none-elf-gcc) CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=y : Output formats: Intel hex binary 3. The Serial Console is provided on UART0 with the correct pin configuration for use with the OpenSDAv2 VCOM. This can be switched to use a RS-232 shield on UART3 by reconfiguring the serial console. -CONFIG_KINETIS_UART0=y +CONFIG_KINETIS_UART3=y -CONFIG_UART0_SERIALDRIVER=y +CONFIG_UART3_SERIALDRIVER=y -CONFIG_UART0_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y +CONFIG_UART3_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y -CONFIG_UART0_RXBUFSIZE=256 +CONFIG_UART3_RXBUFSIZE=256 -CONFIG_UART0_TXBUFSIZE=256 +CONFIG_UART3_TXBUFSIZE=256 -CONFIG_UART0_BAUD=115200 +CONFIG_UART3_BAUD=115200 -CONFIG_UART0_BITS=8 +CONFIG_UART3_BITS=8 -CONFIG_UART0_PARITY=0 +CONFIG_UART3_PARITY=0 -CONFIG_UART0_2STOP=0 +CONFIG_UART3_2STOP=0 NOTE: On my Windows 10 / Cygwin64 system, the OpenSDAv2 VCOM is not recognized. I probably need to install a driver? There is a serial USB driver on the mbed web site. However, this driver would not install on Windows 10 for me. I understand that it installs OK on Windows 7. 4. Support for NSH built-in applications is enabled, but no built-in applications have been configured in. 5. An SDHC driver is enabled in this configuration but does not yet work. The basic problem seems to be that it does not sense the presence of the SD card on PTE6. No interrupts are generated when the SD card is inserted or removed. You might want to disable SDHC and MMC/SD if you are using this configuration. Refer to the configuration settings listed above under "SD Card Support". Status ====== 2016-07-11: Received hardware today and the board came up on the very first try. That does not happen often. At this point, the very basic NSH configuration is working and LEDs are working. The only odd behavior that I see is that pressing SW3 causes an NMI interrupt (followed by a crash): kinetis_nmi: PANIC!!! NMI received I don't yet understand why this is. 2016-07-12: Added support for the KSZ8081 PHY and added the netnsh configuration. The network is basically functional. More testing is needed, but I have not seen any obvious network failures. In testing, I notice a strange thing. If I run at full optimization the code runs (albeit with bugs-to-be-solved). But with no optimization or even at -O1, the system fails to boot. This seems to be related to the watchdog timer. 2016-07-13: Add SD automounter logic; broke out SDHC logic into a separate file. The nsh configuration now has SDHC enabled be default. Does not yet work. The basic problem seems to be that it does not sense the presence of the SD card on PTE6. No interrupts are generated when the SD card is inserted or removed. You might want to disable SDHC and MMC/SD if you are using this configuration. The nsh configuration now builds successfully with USB device enabled. USB device, however, has not yet been tested. I have not yet looked into 48MHz clocking requirements. 2017-02-10: These have been numerous SDHC fixes submitted by Marc Rechte'. These may or may not have fixed the SDHC issues mentioned about. You would have to retest to verify the SDHC functionality.
