| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| The nRF7002 DK (PCA10143) is a single-board development kit for evaluation and development on |
| the nRF7002, a Wi-Fi companion IC to Nordic Semiconductor's nRF5340 System-on-Chip (SoC) host |
| processor. It is certified for the Wi-Fi Alliance® `Wi-Fi Certification program`_ in the |
| Connectivity, Security, and Optimization categories. See `UG Wi-Fi certification`_ for detailed |
| information. |
| |
| The nRF7002 is an IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) compliant solution that implements the Wi-Fi physical |
| layer and Medium Access Control (MAC) layer protocols. It implements the nRF Wi-Fi driver |
| software on the nRF5340 host processor communicating over the QSPI bus. |
| |
| The nRF5340 host is a dual-core SoC based on the Arm® Cortex®-M33 architecture. |
| It has the following features: |
| |
| * A full-featured Arm Cortex-M33F core with DSP instructions, FPU, and Armv8-M Security Extension, |
| running at up to 128 MHz, referred to as the application core. |
| * A secondary Arm Cortex-M33 core, with a reduced feature set, running at a fixed 64 MHz, |
| referred to as the network core. |
| |
| The ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` board target provides support for the application core on the |
| nRF5340 SoC. The ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet`` board target provides support for the network |
| core on the nRF5340 SoC. |

| * Implementation Defined Attribution Unit (`IDAU`_) on the application core. |
| |
| The IDAU is implemented with the System Protection Unit and is used to define |

| (Flash, SRAM, and peripheral address space) is defined to be secure-accessible only. |
| |
| * Secure boot. |
| |
| Programming and Debugging |
| ************************* |
| |
| The nRF5340 application core supports the Armv8-M Security Extension. |
| Applications built for the ``nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` board boot by default in the |
| secure state. |
| |
| The nRF5340 network core does not support the Armv8-M Security Extension. |
| nRF5340 IDAU can configure bus accesses by the nRF5340 network core to have the secure |
| attribute set. This allows to build and run secure-only applications on the nRF5340 SoC. |
| |
| Building Secure/Non-Secure Zephyr applications with Arm |reg| TrustZone |reg| |
| ============================================================================= |
| |
| Applications on the nRF5340 may contain a Secure and a Non-Secure firmware |
| image for the application core. The Secure image can be built using either |
| Zephyr or `Trusted Firmware M`_ (TF-M). Non-Secure firmware |
| images are always built using Zephyr. The two alternatives are described below. |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| By default, SPE for the nRF5340 application core is built using TF-M. |
| |
| Building the Secure firmware with TF-M |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| The process to build the Secure firmware image using TF-M and the Non-Secure |
| firmware image using Zephyr requires the following steps: |
| |
| 1. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application |
| for the application core using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns``. |
| To invoke the building of TF-M the Zephyr build system requires the |
| Kconfig option ``BUILD_WITH_TFM`` to be enabled, which is done by |
| default when building Zephyr as a Non-Secure application. |
| The Zephyr build system will perform the following steps automatically: |
| |
| * Build the Non-Secure firmware image as a regular Zephyr application |
| * Build a TF-M (secure) firmware image |
| * Merge the output image binaries together |
| * Optionally build a bootloader image (MCUboot) |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| Depending on the TF-M configuration, an application DTS overlay may be |
| required, to adjust the Non-Secure image Flash and SRAM starting address |
| and sizes. |
| |
| 2. Build the application firmware for the network core using |
| ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet``. |
| |
| Building the Secure firmware using Zephyr |
| ----------------------------------------- |
| |
| The process to build the Secure and the Non-Secure firmware images |
| using Zephyr requires the following steps: |
| |
| 1. Build the Secure Zephyr application for the application core |
| using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` and |
| ``CONFIG_TRUSTED_EXECUTION_SECURE=y`` and ``CONFIG_BUILD_WITH_TFM=n`` |
| in the application project configuration file. |
| 2. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application for the application core |
| using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns``. |
| 3. Merge the two binaries together. |
| 4. Build the application firmware for the network core using |
| ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet``. |
| |
| When building a Secure/Non-Secure application for the nRF5340 application core, |
| the Secure application will have to set the IDAU (SPU) configuration to allow |
| Non-Secure access to all CPU resources utilized by the Non-Secure application |
| firmware. SPU configuration shall take place before jumping to the Non-Secure |
| application. |
| |
| Building a Secure only application |
| ================================== |
| |
| Build the Zephyr app in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` |
| and :ref:`application_run`), using ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp`` for |
| the firmware running on the nRF5340 application core, and using |
| ``-DBOARD=nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpunet`` for the firmware running |
| on the nRF5340 network core. |
| |
| Flashing |
| ======== |
| |
| Follow the instructions in the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to install |
| and configure all the necessary software. Further information can be |
| found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. Then you can build and flash |
| applications as usual (:ref:`build_an_application` and |
| :ref:`application_run` for more details). |
| |
| .. warning:: |
| |
| The nRF5340 has a flash read-back protection feature. When flash read-back |
| protection is active, you will need to recover the chip before reflashing. |
| If you are flashing with :ref:`west <west-build-flash-debug>`, run |
| this command for more details on the related ``--recover`` option: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| west flash -H -r nrfjprog --skip-rebuild |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| Flashing and debugging applications on the nRF5340 DK requires |
| upgrading the nRF Command Line Tools to version 10.12.0. Further |
| information on how to install the nRF Command Line Tools can be |
| found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. |
| |
| Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application running on the |
| nRF5340 application core. |
| |
| First, run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| $ minicom -D <tty_device> -b 115200 |
| |
| Replace :code:`<tty_device>` with the port where the board nRF7002 DK |
| can be found. For example, under Linux, :code:`/dev/ttyACM0`. |
| |
| Then build and flash the application in the usual way. |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world |
| :board: nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp |
| :goals: build flash |
