GigaDevice GD32E503R-START
This article describes specifics for the GigaDevice GD32E503R-START evaluation board.
Minimum requirements
- J-Link software V6.87b or later
Preparing for J-Link
The GD32E503R-START comes with a SWD debug connector. Therefore, you can use a JTAG connector with jumper cables to connect your J-Link with the board. The following guide will describe how the GD32E503R-START evaluation board can be connected to your J-Link.
- Populate the the pin header JP4
- Connect the board with jumping wires to your J-Link (see table below)
For information about the J-Link pinout please refer to the following page: J-Link SWD pinout.
| J-Link 20 pin debug interface | Pin on evaluation board |
|---|---|
| Pin 1 (VTref) | V |
| Pin 4 (GND) | G |
| Pin 7 (SWDIO) | IO |
| Pin 9 (SWCLK) | CK |
The result should be looking like this:
- Power the board via the USB port (CN100).
- Verify the Connection with e.g. J-Link Commander. The output should look as follows:
Example Project
The following example project was created with the SEGGER Embedded Studio project wizard and runs out-of-the-box on the GigaDevice GD32E503R-START. It is a simple blinky application which toggles LED1. The application is linked into the internal flash.
