Programming and Debugging

The cpkcor_ra8d1b board supports the runners and associated west commands listed below.

flash debug

Applications for the cpkcor_ra8d1b board 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.

Note: Only support from SDK v0.16.6 in which GCC for Cortex Arm-M85 was available. To build for CPKCOR-RA8D1B user need to get and install GNU Arm Embedded toolchain from https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/sdk-ng/releases/tag/v0.16.6

Flashing

Program can be flashed to CPKCOR-RA8D1B via the on-board SEGGER J-Link debugger.

To flash the program to board

  1. Connect to J-LINK OB via USB port to host PC

  2. Execute west command

    west flash

Debugging

You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the Hello World application.

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b cpkcor_ra8d1b samples/hello_world
west debug
