Getting Started Guide

allows system

developers to exercise and demonstrate multiple circuits through PetaLinux, including:



USB 2.0



eMMC



Wi-Fi



Bluetooth



I2C Sensor



Microphone

In addition to the items included in the kit, you will also need the following to complete the
exercises in this tutorial.



Wi-Fi connection



2

nd
