SETTING UP THE SYSTEM

1

Insert MicroSD  
Card

Insert the MicroSD card into socket J301 
on the CPU board (700-28617).

2

Connect USB 
Debug Cable

Connect the micro-B end of the supplied 
USB cable into debug port J1901 on the 
base board (700-28616). Connect the 
other end of the cable to a PC acting  
as a host terminal. If needed, the serial  
to USB drivers can be found at  

www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/
USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx

Open the terminal window (i.e., Hyper 
Terminal or TeraTerm) and apply the 
following configuration:

•  Baud rate: 115200
•  Data bits: 8
•  Stop bit: 1
•  Parity: None
•  Flow control: None

3

Connect LCD Module 
(optional)

Connect the FPC cable of LCD Module 
(LCD8000-43T) to the LCD connector 
J901 on base board (700-28616), which is 
bottom contact.

Note: The LCD Module is not included in the kit. It is sold 
separately at www.nxp.com/iMX6ULEVK.

4

Connect Ethernet Cable 
(Optional)

Connect an Ethernet cable to the right 
port of the Ethernet Jack J1501 (close to 
the HDMI connector).

5

Connect Power  
Supply

Connect the plug of the 5 V power 
supply to the DC power jack J2001 on 
base board (700-28616) and slide power 
switch SW2001 to ON. When power is 
connected to the EVK, it will automatically 
begin the boot sequence.
