Overview
********

The GD32E103V-EVAL board is a hardware platform that enables design and debug
of the GigaDevice E103 Cortex-M4F High Performance MCU.

The GD32E103VB features a single-core ARM Cortex-M4F MCU which can run up
to 120-MHz with flash accesses zero wait states, 128kiB of Flash, 32kiB of
SRAM and 80 GPIOs.

Serial Port
===========

The GD32E103V-EVAL board has 5 serial communication ports. The default port
is UART0 at PIN-9 and PIN-10.

Programming and Debugging
*************************

Before program your board make sure to configure boot setting and serial port.
The default serial port is USART0.  This port uses header JP-5/6 to route
signals between USB VBUS/ID and USART J2.

+--------+--------+------------+
| Boot-0 | Boot-1 | Function   |
+========+========+============+
|  1-2   |  1-2   | SRAM       |
+--------+--------+------------+
|  1-2   |  2-3   | Bootloader |
+--------+--------+------------+
|  2-3   |  Any   | Flash      |

+------+------+-------------+
| JP-5 | JP-6 | Function    |

| 1-2  | 1-2  | USART0 / J2 |
+------+------+-------------+
| 2-3  | 2-3  | USB VBUS/ID |

Using GD-Link
=============

The GD32E103V-EVAL includes an onboard programmer/debugger (GD-Link) which
allow flash programming and debug over USB. There are also program and debug
headers J1 and J100 that can be used with any ARM compatible tools.

#. Build the Zephyr kernel and the :ref:`hello_world` sample application:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: gd32e103v_eval
      :goals: build
      :compact:

#. Run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. Under Linux the
   terminal should be :code:`/dev/ttyUSB0`. For example:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -o

   The -o option tells minicom not to send the modem initialization
   string. Connection should be configured as follows:

      - Speed: 115200
      - Data: 8 bits
      - Parity: None
      - Stop bits: 1

#. To flash an image:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: gd32e103v_eval
      :goals: flash
      :compact:

   You should see "Hello World! gd32e103v_eval" in your terminal.

#. To debug an image:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: gd32e103v_eval
      :goals: debug
      :compact:


Using ROM bootloader
====================

The GD32E103 MCU have a ROM bootloader which allow flash programming.  User
should install `GD32 ISP Console`_ software at some Linux path.  The recommended
is :code:`$HOME/.local/bin`.

#. Build the Zephyr kernel and the :ref:`hello_world` sample application:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: gd32e103v_eval
      :goals: build
      :compact:

#. Enable board bootloader:

   - Remove boot-0 jumper
   - press reset button

#. To flash an image:

   .. code-block:: console

      west build -b gd32e103v_eval samples/hello_world
      west flash -r gd32isp [--port=/dev/ttyUSB0]

#. Run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. Under Linux the
   terminal should be :code:`/dev/ttyUSB0`. For example:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -o

   The -o option tells minicom not to send the modem initialization
   string. Connection should be configured as follows:

      - Speed: 115200
      - Data: 8 bits
      - Parity: None
      - Stop bits: 1

   Press reset button

   You should see "Hello World! gd32e103v_eval" in your terminal.
