The Toolchain Manager will check the VS Code installation for several extensions provided by Nordic
Semiconductor. If they are not present the user is prompted to install them. If prompted, accept the
installation.
Once VS Code starts, a NCS welcome screen is displayed.

Board support package
EVK-NORA-B1 requires a unique board support package (BSP) to account for the GPIO assignments
within the design. u-blox board support files have the format
ubx_<board_name>_<cpu>
.
The EVK-NORA-B10 BSP uses the name
ubx_evknorab10_nrf5340
, which is appended with the suffix
_cpunet
,
_cpuapp
, or
_cpuappns,
to reflect the target core.
The EVK-NORA-B12 BSP uses the name
ubx_evknorab12_nrf5340
, which is appended with the suffix
_cpunet
,
_cpuapp
, or
_cpuappns,
to reflect the target core.
All core options are contained in a single BSP folder. u-blox has submitted an application to include
the EVK-NORA-B1 BSPs into the mainline Zephyr RTOS distribution. In the interim, the package is
already available for download from the u-blox GitHub repository [3].
Copy the entire .
\zephyr\boards\arm\ubx_evknorab10_nrf5340
folder into the
NCS directory
.\ncs\vX.Y.Z\zephyr\boards\arm
, where “
X.Y.Z
” is the NCS version in use.
☞
The BSPs are compatible with NCS v2.0.0 and newer.
