BNO080 Development Kit for Nucleo
Quick Start Guide
The BNO080 is a System in Package (SiP) that integrates a triaxial accelerometer, a triaxial gyroscope,
magnetometer and a 32-
bit ARM® Cortex™ - M0+ microcontroller running Hillcrest’s SH-2 ™ firmware.
This document is intended to provide information about the BNO080 Development Kit, the pin
connections and software provided by Hillcrest to facilitate customer integration.
1. Hardware
1.1. Introduction
The BNO080 Development Kit includes a shield known as the BNO080 ( “ target device ” ) Development
Board that is designed for quick and easy development and prototyping. The shield is designed to
connect to a number of evaluation platforms
– one of which is the STM32F4x1RE Nucleo ( “ bridge
board ” ) which is developed and sold by STMicroelectronics
1
(ST) and is included in the BNO080
Development Kit package. The Nucleo platform includes a STM32F4x1 MCU that serves as the master to
the BNO080. This document includes details for connecting and using the BNO080 Development Kit
with the ST Nucleo prototyping platform.
