|
| 63 | +System Clock |
| 64 | +============ |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +The EFR32MG26 SoC is configured to use the HFRCODPLL oscillator at 78 MHz as the system clock, |
| 67 | +locked to the 39 MHz crystal oscillator on the board. |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +Serial Port |
| 70 | +=========== |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +The EFR32MG26 SoC has 3 USARTs and 4 EUSARTs. |
| 73 | +USART0 is connected to the board controller and is used for the console. |

|
| 80 | +Flashing |
| 81 | +======== |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +Connect the DK2608A Dev Kit to your host computer using the USB port. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application. |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +.. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| 88 | + :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world |
| 89 | + :board: xg26_dk2608a |
| 90 | + :goals: flash |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +Open a serial terminal (minicom, putty, etc.) with the following settings: |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +- Speed: 115200 |
| 95 | +- Data: 8 bits |
| 96 | +- Parity: None |
| 97 | +- Stop bits: 1 |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +Reset the board and you should see the following message in the terminal: |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +.. code-block:: console |
| 102 | +
|
| 103 | + Hello World! xg26_dk2608a |
| 104 | +
|
| 105 | +Bluetooth |
| 106 | +========= |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +To use Bluetooth functionality, run the command below to retrieve necessary binary |
| 109 | +blobs from the Silicon Labs HAL repository. |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +.. code-block:: console |
| 112 | +
|
| 113 | + west blobs fetch hal_silabs |
| 114 | +
|
| 115 | +Then build the Zephyr kernel and a Bluetooth sample with the following |
| 116 | +command. The :zephyr:code-sample:`bluetooth_observer` sample application is used in |
| 117 | +this example. |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +.. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| 120 | + :zephyr-app: samples/bluetooth/observer |
| 121 | + :board: xg26_dk2608a |
| 122 | + :goals: build |
