i.MX 8MMini Evaluation Kit with SE050ARD

This document will walk a developer through the steps of installing a FoundriesFactory image with the SE050 hardware enabled onto the NXP imx8mmevk that is connected to the NXP OM-SE050ARD development platform.

An image created in the factory with the SE050 enabled will not boot on boards without the SE050 properly attached.

Attaching the SE050

Connect the OM-SE050ARD Arduino Compatible Development Kit to the imx8mmevk as follows:

Using four male to male jumper wires (Arduino Compatible Pin size) connect the two boards.

SE050ARD

Connect the signals as follows:

Signal imx8mmevk OM-SE050ARD
SCL J1004 pin 3 J2 pin 10
SDA J1004 pin 5 J2 pin 9
VDD_3V3 J1004 pin 1 J8 pin 5
GND J1004 pin 7 J2 pin 7

Alternatively use J22 on OM-SE050ARD and connect as follows

Signal imx8mmevk OM-SE050ARD
SCL J1004 pin 3 J22 pin 4
SDA J1004 pin 5 J22 pin 1
VDD_3V3 J1004 pin 1 J22 pin 2
GND J1004 pin 7 J22 pin 3

Be sure that the jumpers on the SE050 evaluation board are set as follows:

Installing the FoundriesFactory Image

Download the images that have the SE050 enabled from the factory following the instructions in the iMX8MMevk board.
