nRF9280 PDK

Overview

Note

All software for the nRF9280 SiP is experimental and hardware availability is restricted to the participants in the limited sampling program.

The nRF9280 PDK is a single-board development kit for evaluation and development on the Nordic nRF9280 System-in-Package (SiP).

The nrf9280pdk/nrf9280/cpuapp board target provides support for the application core on the nRF9280 SiP.

nRF9280 SiP provides support for the following devices:

  • GPIO

  • UART

Hardware

The nRF9280 PDK has four programmable LEDs, four programmable buttons, and one reset button.

Programming and Debugging

Applications for the nrf9280pdk/nrf9280/cpuapp board target can be built, flashed, and debugged in the usual way. See Building an Application and Run an Application for more details on building and running.

Flashing

As an example, this section shows how to build and flash the Hello World application.

Follow the instructions in the Nordic nRF5x Segger J-Link page to install and configure all the necessary software. Further information can be found in Flashing.

To build and program the sample to the nRF9280 PDK, complete the following steps:

  1. Connect the nRF9280 PDK to your computer using the IMCU USB port on the PDK.

  2. Build the sample by running the following command:

    # From the root of the zephyr repository
    west build -b nrf9280pdk/nrf9280/cpuapp samples/hello_world
    west flash
    

Testing the LEDs and buttons in the nRF9280 PDK

There are 2 samples that allow you to test that the buttons (switches) and LEDs on the board are working properly with Zephyr:

You can build and flash the examples to make sure Zephyr is running correctly on your board. The button and LED definitions can be found in boards/nordic/nrf9280pdk/nrf9280pdk_nrf9280_cpuapp.dts.
