1. Introduction

This document illustrates how to build Realtek low power Wi-Fi software under IAR SDK
environment.

2. How to get IAR

IAR provides an IDE environment for code building, downloading, and debugging. Please check

“IAR Embedded Workbench” on http://www.iar.com/, and trail version is available. It requires IAR

version greater than v7.20 which supports CMSIS-DAP.

3. Debugger Setting

This board supports both CMSIS-DAP debugger and J-Link.

3.2 CMSIS-DAP

Ameba Device Board 2V0 supports CMSIS-DAP debugger. It requires installing “serial to USB driver”
at first. Serial to USB driver can be found in tools\serial_to_usb\mbedWinSerial_16466.

Connect board to the PC with micro-USB cable.

After installation, connect the board to PC, and then there should be mbed Serial Port shown in
Device Manager.

3.2 J-Link/JTAG

The board is configured as CMSIS-DAP mode. To use J-Link debugger, please follow the next
procedures.

Hardware Configuration

Weld JTAG and log UART connectors to HDK board and connect with pitch 2.54mm 2x5pins
connector. It is recommended to weld the connector on the bottom side.

p.s. J-Link is supported on RTL-AMEBA_DEV_3V0
