Overview

The XMC7200 evaluation kit enables you to evaluate and develop your applications using the XMC7200D microcontroller(hereafter called “XMC7200D”). The XMC7200D is designed for industrial applications and it is a true programmable embedded system-on-chip, integrating up to two 350-MHz Arm® Cortex®-M7 as the primary application processor, a 100-MHz Arm® Cortex®-M0+ that supports the following:

Low-power operations
Up to 8 MB flash and 1 MB SRAM
Gigabit Ethernet
CAN FD
Secure Digital Host Controller (SDHC) supporting SD/SDIO/eMMC interfaces
Programmable analog and digital peripherals that allow faster time-to-market

The evaluation board has a M.2 interface connector for interfacing radio modules-based on AIROC™ Wi-Fi & Bluetooth combos, SMIF dual header compatible with Digilent Pmod for interfacing HYPERBUS™ memories, and headers compatible with Arduino for interfacing Arduino shields. In addition, the board features an onboard programmer/debugger(KitProg3), a 512-Mbit QSPI NOR flash, CAN FD transceiver, Gigabit Ethernet PHY transceiver with RJ45 connector interface, a micro-B connector for USB device interface, three user LEDs, one potentiometer, and two push buttons. The board supports operating voltages from 3.3 V to 5.0 V for XMC7200D.

Programming and Debugging

Building

Here is an example for building the :zephyr:code-sample:blinky sample application.

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: kit_xmc72_evk :goals: build

Flashing

The KIT_XMC72_EVK includes an onboard programmer/debugger (KitProg3_) to provide debugging, flash programming, and serial communication over USB. Flash and debug commands use OpenOCD and require a custom Infineon OpenOCD version, that supports KitProg3, to be installed.

Infineon OpenOCD Installation

Both the full ModusToolbox_ and the ModusToolbox Programming Tools_ packages include Infineon OpenOCD. Installing either of these packages will also install Infineon OpenOCD.

If neither package is installed, a minimal installation can be done by downloading the Infineon OpenOCD_ release for your system and manually extract the files to a location of your choice.

.. note:: Linux requires device access rights to be set up for KitProg3. This is handled automatically by the ModusToolbox and ModusToolbox Programming Tools installations. When doing a minimal installation, this can be done manually by executing the script openocd/udev_rules/install_rules.sh.

West Commands

The path to the installed Infineon OpenOCD executable must be available to the west tool commands. There are multiple ways of doing this. The example below uses a permanent CMake argument to set the CMake variable OPENOCD.

.. tabs:: .. group-tab:: Windows

     .. code-block:: shell

        # Run west config once to set permanent CMake argument
        west config build.cmake-args -- -DOPENOCD=path/to/infineon/openocd/bin/openocd.exe

        # Do a pristine build once after setting CMake argument
        west build -b kit_xmc72_evk -p always samples/basic/blinky

        west flash
        west debug

  .. group-tab:: Linux

     .. code-block:: shell

        # Run west config once to set permanent CMake argument
        west config build.cmake-args -- -DOPENOCD=path/to/infineon/openocd/bin/openocd

        # Do a pristine build once after setting CMake argument
        west build -b kit_xmc72_evk -p always samples/basic/blinky

        west flash
        west debug

Once the gdb console starts after executing the west debug command, you may now set breakpoints and perform other standard GDB debugging.
