.. _nrf7002dk_nrf5340: nRF7002 DK ########## Overview ******** The nRF7002 DK (PCA10143) is a single-board development kit for evaluation and development on the nRF7002, a Wi-Fi companion IC to Nordic Semiconductor's nRF5340 System-on-Chip (SoC) host processor. It is certified for the Wi-Fi Alliance® `Wi-Fi Certification program`_ in the Connectivity, Security, and Optimization categories. See `UG Wi-Fi certification`_ for detailed information. The nRF7002 is an IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) compliant solution that implements the Wi-Fi physical layer and Medium Access Control (MAC) layer protocols. It implements the nRF Wi-Fi driver software on the nRF5340 host processor communicating over the QSPI bus. The nRF5340 host is a dual-core SoC based on the Arm® Cortex®-M33 architecture. It has the following features: * A full-featured Arm Cortex-M33F core with DSP instructions, FPU, and Armv8-M Security Extension, running at up to 128 MHz, referred to as the application core. * A secondary Arm Cortex-M33 core, with a reduced feature set, running at a fixed 64 MHz, referred to as the network core. The ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` board target provides support for the application core on the nRF5340 SoC. The ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet`` board target provides support for the network core on the nRF5340 SoC. .. figure:: img/nrf7002dk.jpg :align: center :alt: nRF7002 DK nRF7002 DK (Credit: Nordic Semiconductor) More information about the board can be found at the `nRF7002 DK website`_.

Connections and IOs ------------------- The connections and IOs supported by the development kit are listed in this section.

The IDAU is implemented with the System Protection Unit and is used to define secure and non-secure memory maps. By default, the entire memory space (Flash, SRAM, and peripheral address space) is defined to be secure-accessible only. * Secure boot. Programming and Debugging ************************* The nRF5340 application core supports the Armv8-M Security Extension. Applications built for the ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` board boot by default in the secure state. The nRF5340 network core does not support the Armv8-M Security Extension. nRF5340 IDAU can configure bus accesses by the nRF5340 network core to have the secure attribute set. This allows to build and run secure-only applications on the nRF5340 SoC. Building Secure/Non-Secure Zephyr applications with Arm |reg| TrustZone |reg| ============================================================================= Applications on the nRF5340 may contain a Secure and a Non-Secure firmware image for the application core. The Secure image can be built using either Zephyr or `Trusted Firmware M`_ (TF-M). Non-Secure firmware images are always built using Zephyr. The two alternatives are described below. .. note:: By default, SPE for the nRF5340 application core is built using TF-M. Building the Secure firmware with TF-M -------------------------------------- The process to build the Secure firmware image using TF-M and the Non-Secure firmware image using Zephyr requires the following steps: 1. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application for the application core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns``. To invoke the building of TF-M the Zephyr build system requires the Kconfig option ``BUILD_WITH_TFM`` to be enabled, which is done by default when building Zephyr as a Non-Secure application. The Zephyr build system will perform the following steps automatically: * Build the Non-Secure firmware image as a regular Zephyr application * Build a TF-M (secure) firmware image * Merge the output image binaries together * Optionally build a bootloader image (MCUboot) .. note:: Depending on the TF-M configuration, an application DTS overlay may be required, to adjust the Non-Secure image Flash and SRAM starting address and sizes. 2. Build the application firmware for the network core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet``. Building the Secure firmware using Zephyr ----------------------------------------- The process to build the Secure and the Non-Secure firmware images using Zephyr requires the following steps: 1. Build the Secure Zephyr application for the application core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` and ``CONFIG_TRUSTED_EXECUTION_SECURE=y`` and ``CONFIG_BUILD_WITH_TFM=n`` in the application project configuration file. 2. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application for the application core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns``. 3. Merge the two binaries together. 4. Build the application firmware for the network core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet``. When building a Secure/Non-Secure application for the nRF5340 application core, the Secure application will have to set the IDAU (SPU) configuration to allow Non-Secure access to all CPU resources utilized by the Non-Secure application firmware. SPU configuration shall take place before jumping to the Non-Secure application. Building a Secure only application ================================== Build the Zephyr app in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` and :ref:`application_run`), using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` for the firmware running on the nRF5340 application core, and using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet`` for the firmware running on the nRF5340 network core. Flashing ======== Follow the instructions in the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to install and configure all the necessary software. Further information can be found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. Then you can build and flash applications as usual (:ref:`build_an_application` and :ref:`application_run` for more details). .. warning:: The nRF5340 has a flash read-back protection feature. When flash read-back protection is active, you will need to recover the chip before reflashing. If you are flashing with :ref:`west `, run this command for more details on the related ``--recover`` option: .. code-block:: console west flash -H -r nrfjprog --skip-rebuild .. note:: Flashing and debugging applications on the nRF5340 DK requires upgrading the nRF Command Line Tools to version 10.12.0. Further information on how to install the nRF Command Line Tools can be found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application running on the nRF5340 application core. First, run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. .. code-block:: console $ minicom -D -b 115200 Replace :code:`` with the port where the board nRF7002 DK can be found. For example, under Linux, :code:`/dev/ttyACM0`. Then build and flash the application in the usual way. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp :goals: build flash Debugging ========= Refer to the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to learn about debugging Nordic boards with a Segger IC.
