Supported Features

The following features are supported:

Interface

Controller

Driver/Component

NVIC

on-chip

nested vector interrupt controller

UART

on-chip

serial port-polling; serial port-interrupt

Other hardware features are not currently supported by Zephyr (at the moment)

The default configuration can be found in boards/aspeed/ast1030_evb/ast1030_evb_defconfig

Connections and IOs

Aspeed to provide the schematic for this board.

System Clock

The AST1030 SOC is configured to use external 25MHz clock input to generate 200Mhz system clock by the on-chip PLL.

Serial Port

UART5 is configured for serial logs. The default serial setup is 115200 8N1.

Programming and Debugging

This board comes with a JTAG port which facilitates debugging using a single physical connection.

Flashing

Build application as usual for the ast1030_evb board, and flash using SF100 SPI Flash programmer. See the Aspeed Zephyr SDK User Guide [1] for more information.

Debugging

Use JTAG or SWD with a J-Link
