5 Installing and configuring software tools
PCA9617A_ARD evaluation board is designed and built as a daughterboard able to work
in conjunction with a motherboard equipped with an Arduino port. 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 benefit by firmware
support, which can be downloaded from
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 PCA9617ADP-ARD daughterboard through the
one of above mentioned EVKs. The GUI application is common for all three EVKs. The
GUI software is also built to control two daughterboards: the PCA9617ADP-ARD and the
PCA9846PW-ARD (both manufactured by NXP Semiconductors). For details regarding
installation of the EVK firmware and GUI host software on PC please download
UM11581
- Arduino Shields GUI and firmware installation
available at
. Once the software is installed, the first step is to select
the correct combination EVK – PCA9617ADP-ARD daughterboard. The board can be
controlled from the GUI interface. See
and
for more details regarding
the operation of PCA9617ADP-ARD from GUI software.
