4.1 A71CL Arduino compatible development kit (A71CLARD)

The A71CLARD is an Arduino development kit containing two items as well as:

1. An A71CL Mini PCB board

2. An Arduino interface board, allowing the user to connect the A71CL to any host

featuring an Arduino compatible header (e.g., many LPC, Kinetis and i.MX boards in the industry).

4.1.1 A71 Mini PCB board

The Mini PCB board is a small PCB containing the A71 solution and a set of jumpers for the I2C host interface selection.

Figure 2 shows an image of the MiniPCB. It features two connectors that can be used

depending on the communication interface employed. The figure shows the jumpers configuration that enables the use of the A71 I2C interface.

Figure 2. System architecture diagram

To enable the I2C communication protocol, it is necessary to configure JP5/6 according to Table 2. JP2 connects the A71 to the on-board 3.3V voltage regulator on the MiniPCB board. The jumpers JP3 and JP4 enable the I²C SDA/SCL pull-up resistors. JP7 can be used to connect the A71 reset signal.

6.4 Importing the example projects in MCUXpresso IDE

There are generally two possible ways to import the A71 project examples in MCUXpresso IDE, depending if we are using the MCUXpresso project files bundled with the A71CL Host Software package or if the installed SDK package already contains the A71CL middleware:

Application note Rev. 1.0 — 11 December 2018 COMPANY PUBLIC 353410 16 / 31

Page 17

NXP Semiconductors

• Importing the A71CL-ALI example projects from the installed Kinetis-SDK. This SDK is

not available yet and as such this way is not supported yet.

• Importing the A71CL example projects from local drive (included in the A71CL-ALI Host Library).

6.4.1 Importing A71CL example projects from local drive

Here the project files bundled with the A71CL Host Software package can be used. The A71CL Host Software Package can be downloaded from [A71CL_HOST_SW

A71CH_HOST_SW] [1].

After unpacking the package the example project files are in the subfolder ‘mcux_projects_frdmk64f’ in the case of the FRDM K64F board. It contains one example project:

• frdmk64f_id2_client_sdk: demonstrate the connection of the id2_client_sdk as available on Github [ https://github.com/alibaba/id2_client_sdk ] to the A71CL and run the testsuite

To import a project from file system, click on ‘Import project(s) from file system…’ in the ‘Quick start Panel’ located in the bottom left. See Figure 19.

AN11803

A71CL Quick start guide for A71CLARD-ALI and Kinetis

Figure 19. Import project from file system

After clicking the import option, a new pop-up will open. In the ‘Project directory (unpacked)’ field, browse and point to the correct project directory, see Figure 20. Then,

click on ‘Next’.

AN11803

A71CL Quick start guide for A71CLARD-ALI and Kinetis

Finally, select all the available example projects, deselect “Copy projects into the workspace” and then click on ‘Finish’. In case you want to have the same project

imported multiple times independently you need to unpack it into distinct directories and import these individually as the code needs to get referenced instead of copied.

Figure 21. Project directory to import

6.5 Terminal setup

A terminal application must be executed from the development PC to interact with the Kinetis board. Any terminal supporting a serial port interface can be used.

In this document, Tera Term is used and can be downloaded from [2]. The setup wizard will guide the user through the installation. The standard installation can be chosen for this purpose. Once it is finished, Tera Term can be started.

Application note Rev. 1.0 — 11 December 2018 COMPANY PUBLIC 353410 18 / 31

NXP Semiconductors

6.6 OpenSDA configuration

OpenSDA is a serial and debug adapter built into the Kinetis board. It provides a bridge between the development PC and the Kinetis MCU, which can be used for debugging, flash programming and serial communication all over USB.

Note: This section explains how to install the correct OpenSDA bootloader firmware version to the Kinetis FRDM-K64F board. This needs to be done for debugging, flash programming, and serial communication over a single USB connection between a host and an embedded target processor. If this section is not followed carefully, it is possible the examples will not be executed.

To configure OpenSDA into the Kinetis FRDM board, an OpenSDA bootloader (.bin file) should be downloaded from OpenSDA website [4]. Scroll down the page to section ‘Compatible Evaluation Boards’ and search for the target Kinetis FRDM board. In this case, Figure 22 depicts the OpenSDA bootloader version defined for the Kinetis FRDM K64F: version 2.0.

AN11803

A71CL Quick start guide for A71CLARD-ALI and Kinetis

Figure 22. OpenSDA bootloader version for the Kinetis FRDM-K64F

Once the OpenSDA bootloader version is identified, click in the ‘Downloads’, scroll down until ‘J-Link OpenSDA – Generic Firmwares’ appears and download the desired version.

Figure 23 illustrates the process; in this case OpenSDA V2 Bootloader has been

selected, according to the compatible evaluation boards table previously mentioned.

Application note Rev. 1.0 — 11 December 2018 COMPANY PUBLIC 353410 19 / 31

Page 20

NXP Semiconductors

To write the downloaded firmware into the Kinetis FRDM board, the bootloader mode should be enabled. For this, press ‘Reset’ button and, while holding down the button, connect a USB cable to the debugger port of the Kinetis board (e.g., FRDM K64,

Figure 24).

AN11803

A71CL Quick start guide for A71CLARD-ALI and Kinetis

Figure 24. Enabling bootloader mode

After connecting the USB cable to the Kinetis board, the green led located inside the yellow square will start blinking and the development PC will show a new drive called ‘BOOTLOADER’. The drive may disappear again after ~30 seconds in case there is no interaction, in this case disconnect and connect again with pressing the ‘Reset’ button.

Drag the downloaded firmware directly into the drive, see Figure 25. Once the file is copied inside the ‘BOOTLOADER’ drive the LED will soon start blink fast, then unplug the Kinetis board and plug it again. The green led stays on, thus indicating that the OpenSDA bootloader firmware has been configured correctly.

7 A71 application examples execution

The A71 Host software package [A71CL_HOST_SW] [1] includes one application examples:

• id2 client sdk: A sample project executing the ID2 testsuite against the A71 secure element

7.1 Running the example

The A71 security IC is connected to the Kinetis board through the Arduino interface board. With MCUXpresso IDE (installed in the Windows PC) the Kinetis MCU is programmed, so that it executes the example application.

The execution output can be seen either in the MCUXpresso IDE console or by using Tera Term. Both cases are explained step by step in this section.

7.1.1 Printing the output with MCUXpresso IDE

Assuming that the SDK has already been installed, and the project examples have been imported as explained in section 6.3, open MCUXpresso IDE and take the following steps (Figure 26):

AN11803

1. Select the project “frdmk64f_id2_client_sdk” in the “Project Explorer”

2. Click on ‘Debug’ in the Quickstart Panel.

3. Select J-Link OpenSDA probe and click on ‘OK’. Make sure the OpenSDA serial port

is connected to the Windows platform (Figure 10, highlighted in red)

4. If a ‘Terms of use’ pop-up appears, check ‘Do not show this message again for today’

box and click ‘Accept’.

After that, the project will start to compile and execute automatically. Once the process is finished, the user should press the ‘F8’ key to run the program. Figure 27 shows the output in the console tab.

Figure 27. Example of generated output printed in MCUXpresso IDE Console

7.1.2 Printing the output on UART console using Tera Term

The output of the A71CL example execution can be switched to be seen by using Tera Term. For this, the SDK Debug Console should be configured to be in ‘UART Console’ mode. Figure 28 illustrates the process; simply click on ‘Quick Settings’, ‘SDK Debug Console’ and finally choose ‘UART Console’.

AN11803

A71CL Quick start guide for A71CLARD-ALI and Kinetis

Figure 28. SDK Debug Console in UART Console mode

This ‘Quick Setting’ takes automatic care to set the pre-processor define ‘SDK_DEBUGCONSOLE’ to 1 to activate the UART console (0 for the semi hosting console)

Note:

If the option UART console or Semihost console cannot be clicked, make sure that there is not a running session and that the project is selected in the project explorer. If there is a running session (a running thread inside ‘Debug’ window), click on the 'Terminate all debug sessions’ button.

Finally, to run the example project:

1. First, click on ‘Build’.

2. Then, click on ‘Debug’ to run the project in the Kinetis board.
