5 Installing and configuring software tools
NTS0304EUK-ARD evaluation board is designed and built as a daughterboard working
in conjunction with an Arduino port equipped motherboard. The board was built to be fully
compatible with the following NXP Evaluation (EVK) boards:
•
IMXRT1050 EVK Board
•
LPCXpresso55S69 Development Board
•
i.MX 8M Mini LPDDR4 EVK Board
Each of the above mentioned evaluation / development boards benefits by firmware
support which can be downloaded from NXP company site (
). Before
starting, the EVK motherboard must be programmed with the corresponding firmware
package. Additionally, a GUI application (Windows 10) is available for download from
the NXP site, allowing rapid testing and operation of NTS0304EUK-ARD daughterboard
through the one of above mentioned EVKs. For details regarding installation of the
EVK firmware and GUI host software on PC please download

Shields GUI and firmware installation
available at
https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/user-
. Once the software is installed, the first step is to select the correct
combination EVK – NTS0304EUK-ARD daughterboard, and then the board can be
controlled from the GUI interface. See
and
for more details regarding
the operation of NTS0304EUK-ARD from GUI software.
6 Configuring the hardware
6.1 Using the NTS0304EUK-ARD with an IMXRT1050 EVK board
shows the required hardware for operation of the NTS0304EUK-ARD
daughterboard with IMXRT1050 EVK. The following items are necessary:
•
One IMXRT1050-EVK board
•
One NTS0304EUK-ARD daughterboard
•
One USB-A / USB Micro-B cable
•
A PC with Windows 10 operating system
The IMXRT1050 EVK motherboard can be powered by one of the three methods:
•
Connecting an external 5VDC power supply to the barrel power connector (J2) on the
board
•
Connecting an USB cable from the PC to the Micro-B USB connector (J9) on the board
•
Connecting an USB cable from the PC to the USB connector (J28) on the board. When
the PC is connected in this fashion, the USB port can simultaneously act as a debug
