This article describes specifics for the NXP MCIMX8QXP-CPU evaluation board. It can be used to test & verify NXP iMX 8 X device support for Cortex-M4.
Minimum requirements
- J-Link software V7.94 or later
- The board should have a bootloader(U-Boot) image on one of the available boot device
Preparing for J-Link
- Connect the J-Link to JTAG connector (J4).
- Connect the onboard USB-UART debug interface to host computer (J11).
- Open a serial interface communication via terminal application(PuTTY).
