i.MX 8M Plus Evaluation Kit With SE050ARD

This document walks through the steps of installing a FoundriesFactory™ Platform image with SE050 hardware enabled onto the NXP® imx8mp-lpddr4-evk, connected to the NXP OM-SE050ARD development platform.

Note

An image created in a Factory with SE050 enabled does not boot on boards without the SE050 properly attached.

Attaching the SE050

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

Fig. 57 SE050ARD

Connect the signals as follows:

Signal	imx8mp-lpddr4-evk	OM-SE050ARD
SCL	J22 pin 3	J2 pin 10
SDA	J22 pin 5	J2 pin 9
VDD_3V3	J22 pin 1	J8 pin 4
GND	J22 pin 7	J2 pin 7

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

Installing the FoundriesFactory Image

Download the images that have the SE050 enabled from the Factory. Follow the instructions in i.MX 8M Plus Evaluation Kit.
