Reset 

The EVK-NORA-B1 provides a configurable hardware reset to the NORA-B1 module. The Reset button 
can be configured to connect to an input on the interface IC or to directly connect to 

nRESET

 signal in 

the module.  

The  reset  button  is  connected  to  the  debug  interface  chip  by  default.  Pressing  reset  while  the 
interface IC is powered causes a momentary reset signal on the 

nMOD_RESET

 output of the interface 

IC, which converted to the 

VSYS

 I/O voltage for the module. If the reset button is held down during the 

EVK power on, it causes the interface IC to enter its bootloader mode, which allows programming of 
the SEGGER J-Link interface. 

Solder jumpers 

JRST1

 and 

JRST2

 allow the reset button to bypass the interface circuit and connect 

directly to the 

nRESET

 signal on the module.

Signal name 

Description 

IMCU_BOOT 

Input to interface chip. During normal operation, drive low to reset the NORA-B1. Drive low during 
power-up to enter bootloader mode on the interface chip. 

nRESET 

NORA-B1 reset signal at the NORA-B1 I/O voltage.  

nMOD_RESET 

NORA-B1 reset signal at the interface chip I/O voltage. 

nSHLD_RESET 

I/O header shield reset signal (J27, pin 3)

Buttons 

The evaluation board has four user buttons that are active low and connect to ground when pressed. 

Table 4

 associates the button number and corresponding components.

Table 4: User button components 

The internal pull-up resistor of each NORA-B1 GPIO pin must be enabled for proper operation.  

 

Example programs in the SDK enable the pull-up resistors by default. 

The  buttons  and  ESD  protection  can  be  completely  removed  from  the  circuit  by  breaking  the 
associated jumper.
