System Clock

The EFM32PG26 MCU is configured to use the HFRCODPLL oscillator at 78 MHz as the system clock, locked to the 39 MHz crystal oscillator on the board.

Serial Port

The EFM32PG26 MCU has 3 USARTs and 4 EUSARTs. USART0 is connected to the board controller and is used for the console.

Programming and Debugging

Flashing

Connect the Explorer Kit to your host computer using the USB port.

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

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: pg26_ek2711a :goals: flash

Open a serial terminal (minicom, putty, etc.) with the following settings:

  • Speed: 115200
  • Data: 8 bits
  • Parity: None
  • Stop bits: 1

Reset the board and you should see the following message in the terminal:

.. code-block:: console
