Before using K510 CRB for learning and development, it is recommended to refer to the detailed architecture of the chip in the K510 manual, so that you can have a deeper understanding of the power supply, storage, computing resources and peripherals of the K510, which is conducive to the familiarity and development of the chip solution. The K510 core board is shown in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1 K510 Core Core ModuleFor more detailed information about the K510 core module, please refer to the K510 Core Module Datasheet.pdf
K510 CRB uses external 5V power supply, on-board two USB type C interfaces, can be used to power the development board, of which the UART interface is used to connect to the computer, the COMPUTER's USB interface can only provide 500mA current, in the case of insufficient power supply, please use the adapter at the same time to supply power at DC: 5V. The interface is shown in the following figure.
Figure 4-1 Power input connectorNote: Limit the use of 5V power supply, when using the fast charge adapter, try not to connect other devices such as mobile phones at the same time, so as not to cause the fast charge adapter to incorrectly output a power supply higher than 5V, resulting in damage to the power supply part of the development board. Use the K2 toggle switch for power-up and power-down operation, as shown in the following figure.
Figure 4-2 Power switch descriptionThe K510 CRB includes a variety of storage devices on board, including DDR, eMMC, NAND Flash, and TF Card.
A 4G Bytes eMMC memory on board on the K510 CRB, located on the core module, can be used to store data such as startup code and user files.
Figure 4-3 eMMC memoryThe K510 CRB includes 128M Bytes of NAND Flash memory, which can be used to store data such as startup code and user files.
Figure 4-4 NAND Flash memoryThe K510 CRB has a TF card holder on board that can be connected externally to a TF card to store data such as startup code and user files.

Figure 4-6 KeysThe K510 CRB has a light-emitting diode on board that is connected directly to the GPIO pin of the K510 chip.
The K510 CRB is onboard a colored LED WS2812 that is connected directly to the GPIO pin of the K510 chip.
The two LEDs are custom programmed to light or extinguish and can be used as system outputs or software-related status indications.
Figure 4-7 LEDThe K510 CRB has a variety of storage devices on board, and the boot mode is selected by configuring the levels of the boot pins, BOOT0 and BOOT1, with 0 and 1 representing low and high levels.
On the PCB, the startup mode is selected by the DIP switch shown in the following figure, and the core module has been designed to pull up BOOT0 and BOOT1, and the side of the on-dialing light marking ON represents the corresponding bit pull down effective, and the other side of ON corresponds to OFF represents the pull-up effective.
The K510 determines the chip boot mode by the status of the boot0 and BOOT1 hardware pins, and the boot mode selection is shown in the following table.
Table 4-1 Boot modesBOOT1 | BOOT0 | Startup mode |
---|---|---|
0(ON) | 0(ON) | Serial port boot |
0(ON) | 1(OFF) | The SD card boots |
1(OFF) | 0(ON) | NANDFLASH boots |
1(OFF) | 1(OFF) | EMMC boots |
