The serial console is provided on UART1.
The evaluation carrier-board exposes the console UART via CP2104 serial-to-USB bridge on connector P3.

Connecting to a host PC

  1. Use a micro-USB cable to connect the console to the USB port on your host PC.
  2. Make sure the CP2104 driver is available with your operating system, otherwise install CP2104 driver onto the host PC from https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/software/CP210x_Windows_Drivers_with_Serial_Enumeration.zip
  3. Identify the host PC interface and port number that will be used for communication with the evaluation kit:
    • In most Linux PCs, the serial port will be denoted as one of the following (where n is a positive integer): /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1 ... /dev/ttyUSBn
    • In Windows PCs, the serial port usually will be denoted as one of the following (where n is a positive integer): COM1, COM2 ... COMn
  4. Start a terminal emulation program (such as PuTTY on Windows or minicom on Linux).
  5. In the port configuration section of the terminal emulation program select the port identified in previous step and set the following serial port parameters:
