System Clock

This board provides a 33.333 MHz reference oscillator for clock generation. The RPU (Cortex-R5F) runs at 600 MHz by default on this board.

In Zephyr, the “system clock” is the kernel’s tick base. By default it’s 100 Hz for periodic-tick builds and 10 kHz (10000 Hz) for tickless builds. See CONFIG_SYS_CLOCK_TICKS_PER_SEC for more details.

Serial Port

The TE0950-02 has a UART port via the FTDI FT2232H USB interface. The same USB port can also be used for JTAG. Please refer to the board schematics for more details.

Programming and Debugging

The te0950 board supports the runners and associated west commands listed below.

	flash	debug	debugserver	simulate	robot	reset	rtt	attach

Flashing

Here is an example for building and flashing the Hello World application for the board:

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b te0950 samples/hello_world
west flash --pdi /path/to/your.pdi

After flashing, you should see message similar to the following in the terminal:

*** Booting Zephyr OS build v4.2.0 ***
Hello World! te0950/versal_rpu
