Carrier Main Board
The OM15076 also called DK6 JN5189 carrier board provides a flexible development system for NXP’s JN5189 ultra-low
power, high performance wireless microcontroller. It can be used with a wide range of development tools, including NXP’s
MCUXpresso IDE. It has been developed by NXP to enable evaluation and prototyping with the JN5189_30_T Bluetooth Low
Energy wireless microcontroller.
The carrier boards (part number: OM15076) supplied in the development kit are physically identical. They are all pre-fitted with
an Arduino-compatible expansion board and a JN5189-based module with integrated antenna.

2.2 Board layout and settings
This section provides a quick reference guide to the main board components, configurable items, visual indicators and expansion
connectors. The layout of the components on the JN5189 Carrier board is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Carrier board layout
The function of each identified component is listed in Table 1
Table 1. Table Board interface components
Circuit ref Description
D1 Link2 LPC4322 BOOT0_LED indicator. Reflects the state of LPC43xx Link2 MCU P1_1. When the boot
process fails, D1 will toggle at a 1 Hz rate for 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, the LPC4322 is reset.
DS1 JN5189 Power LED
DS2, DS3 2x Red debug LEDs connected respectively to JN5189 PIO_0 (DS2) and PIO_3 (DS3). LEDs are on anytime
the PIO is low.
DS4 JN5189 Reset LED – LED is on anytime the Target RESET is pulled low.
DS5, DS6 Green LEDs connected respectively to UART0_Tx (DS5) and UART0_Rx (DS6).
DS8 In System Programming (ISP) LED indicator. LED is ON when SW2 button is pressed.
IC2 Link2 MCU
J2 FTDI serial header. In addition to provide a serial output from JN5189, the Target side of the board can be
powered from the FTDI header. The JN5189 supports serial ISP boot from the FTDI header.
J3 32 pins Expansion header connector for debug. All the JN5189 IOs from modules and more are
available here.

Circuit ref Description
J14 JN5189 VBAT current monitor V sense measurement. The V sense can be measured with a volt meter. Pin 1
(square pad) is positive and pin 2 is negative. JN5189 current is calculated by dividing the measured voltage
at J14 by the V sense resistance value of 3.3Ω.
J15 Link2 mini USB B-type connector. Powers both the Link2 side of the board and depending on the JP3, JP5
configuration, the JN5189 Target side of the board. Power the board from this connector when using the
on-board debug probe to debug the JN5189 Target MCU.
JP1 JN5189 Target SWD disable – 2-position jumper pins.
1. Jumper “ON” (default) the JN5189 Target SWD interface enabled. Normal operating mode where
the Target SWD is connected to either the on-board
2. Link2 debug probe or an external debug probe. Jumper “OFF”, the JN5189 Target SWD interface
is disabled. Use this setting only when the on-board Link2 debug probe is used to debug an
off-board Target JN5189.
JP2 SWD interface buffer power selection
JP3 JN5189 power source selection
1. Jumper fitted in position pin 1 - 2 (default -5V REG). Power source is either 5V from mini USB
connector or FTDI connector, or 4.5V from 3xAAA batteries or 5V from a 7-12V DC power supply
connected on J4.
2. Jumper fitted in position pin 2 - 3 (BAT 6V). Power source is 4xAAA batteries.
See details on Board power diagram Figure 5
JP4 Jumper to route LPC or FTDI to UART RX0 JN5189 (to change in pair with JP7)
JP5 Link2 (LPC4322) force DFU boot – 2 position jumper pins.
1. Jumper open (default) or shunted to boot mode for Link2 to follow the normal boot sequence. The
Link2 will boot from internal flash if image is found there. With the internal flash erased the Link2
normal boot sequence will fall through to DFU boot.
2. Jumper shunted to force the Link2 to DFU boot mode. Use this setting to reprogram the Link2
internal flash with a new image or to use the MCUXpresso IDE with CMSIS-DAP protocol.
JP6 JP6 is used to isolate the Link2 debug probe (SPI bridge function) from the JN5189 target to prevent leakage
current in power critical applications / current consumption analysis. JP6 needs to be fitted in position 1 - 2
to use the SPI bridging function between the JN5189 and Link2. This jumper is not fitted by default
JP7 Jumper to shunt LPC to JN5189 or FTDI to UART TX0 JN5189 (to change in pair with JP4)

P1 10-pin SWD connector – The SWD connector is used to debug the JN5189 Target from an external debug
probe. The same SWD connector can also be used to connect the on-board Link2 debug probe to an
off-board target MCU (for this JP1 must be shunted).
BP1 User Interface button connected to IO1. Used in some Applications Notes.
SW2 In System Programming (ISP) button. JN5189 will enter ISP mode when SW2 is pressed during
hardware reset.

LED reference Description
D1 Link2 MCU BOOT0_LED indicator. Reflects the state of Link2 MCU P1_1. When the boot process
fails, D1 will toggle at a 1 Hz rate for 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, the Link2 MCU is reset. It will be
ON when the Link2 MCU is Booting using DFU (See description for JP5).
