Supported Features

Programming and Debugging


.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

By default programming is done via the USB connector. Press and hold the BOOT button, and then press the RST button, and the device will appear as a USB mass storage unit. Building your application will result in a :file:build/zephyr/zephyr.uf2 file. Drag and drop the file to the USB mass storage unit, and the board will be reprogrammed.

It is also possible to program and debug the board via the SWDIO and SWCLK pins in the DEBUG connector. You must solder a 3-pin or 4-pin header to the back of the board in order to use this feature. A separate programming hardware tool is required, and for example the :command:openocd software is used. You might need to use Raspberry Pi's forked version of OpenOCD. Typically the OPENOCD and OPENOCD_DEFAULT_PATH values should be set when building, and the --runner openocd argument should be used when flashing. For more details on programming RP2040-based and RP2350-based boards, see :ref:rpi_pico_programming_and_debugging.

Flashing the M33 core

To run the :zephyr:code-sample:blinky sample:

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky/ :board: beetle_rp2350/rp2350a/m33 :goals: build flash

Try also the :zephyr:code-sample:hello_world and :zephyr:code-sample:adc_dt samples.

Use the shell to control the GPIO pins:

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/sensor_shell :board: beetle_rp2350/rp2350a/m33 :gen-args: -DCONFIG_GPIO=y -DCONFIG_GPIO_SHELL=y :goals: build flash

To set one of the GPIO pins high, use these commands in the shell:

.. code-block:: shell

gpio conf gpio0 8 o
gpio set gpio0 8 1

Flashing the Hazard3 core

The RP2350A microcontroller has two ARM M33 cores and two RISC-V Hazard3 cores. To flash one of the Hazard3 cores, use the board argument beetle_rp2350/rp2350a/hazard3. The sample :zephyr:code-sample:blinky has been verified for this core. Use the USB mass storage programming method described above.
