Connections and IOs
===================

The WGM160P's EFM32GG11 SoC has six GPIO controllers (PORTA to PORTF), all of which are
currently enabled for the SLWSTK6121A board.

In the following table, the column **Name** contains pin names. For example, PE1
means pin number 1 on PORTE, as used in the board's datasheets and manuals.

System Clock
============

The EFM32GG11 SoC is configured to use the 50 MHz external oscillator on the
board.

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

The EFM32GG11 SoC has four USARTs, two UARTs and two Low Energy UARTs (LEUART).
USART0 is connected to the board controller and is used for the console.

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

.. note::
   Before using the kit the first time, you should update the J-Link firmware
   from `J-Link-Downloads`_

Flashing
========

The SLWSTK6121A includes an `J-Link`_ serial and debug adaptor built into the
board. The adaptor provides:

- A USB connection to the host computer
- A physical UART connection which is relayed over interface USB serial port.

Flashing an application to SLWSTK6121A
--------------------------------------

Connect the SLWSTK6121A to your host computer using the USB port.

Here is an example to build and flash the :ref:`hello_world` application.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
   :board: slwrb4321a
   :goals: flash

Open a serial terminal (minicom, putty, etc.) with the following settings:

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

Reset the board and you'll see the following message on the corresponding serial port
terminal session:

.. code-block:: console
