Build the project to run from RAM
The first build to try is a RAM build. This is the simplest one as there is no need to write the code to
external QSPI flash, the debugger will load it directly into RAM from where it can be run. This is not
the normal method of development.
Build the project with the Build button (
) with the Release RAM configuration
DA14681-01-
Release-RAM
as shown in
Figure 36: Build Blinky in Release RAM configuration
Once the Release RAM binary is built, the next step is to start the Debugger using
Run > Debug
Configurations > SmartBond “SmartSnippets DA1468x SDK via J-Link GDB Server > RAM
as
shown in
. As this is a RAM build the debugger will download the binary file via J-Link
debugger into the system RAM. To enable this the system RAM is mapped to address 0 by the
debugger.
