Actinius Icarus Board Loading

openby kmef78opened 2021-09-04updated 2022-01-25

I've started working with the Icarus nRF9160 board. I noticed in https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/6184 (which i know is closed) it appears some basic support was merged in. My question is based on @alextsam description of how he loaded in the secureboot.hex and firmware.hex. Is a Segger programmer still needed to load in the hex files due to mcuboot? Or has that issue been rectified. I tried to install both files after compiling for the board with the actinius programmer they appear to install, although the programmer warns me it doesnt recognize the secureboot.hex file. It will push both to the board. When I try to use picocom on /dev/ttyUSB0 to get the python prompt I get nothing. Thanks ahead of time. If this question is confusing let me know and I can just write out my procedure.

nrf/boards: Add initial support for Actinius Icarus

mergedby alextsamopened 2020-06-23updated 2020-07-10
port-nrf

This PR adds basic support for the Icarus IoT Board from Actinius (https://www.actinius.com/icarus).

For now, the firmware hex needs to be flashed after secureboot.hex, using a Segger programmer, but since MCUboot is by default preloaded on the Icarus, I would like to offset firmware (+secureboot) to run on top of MCUboot eventually, in order to flash without a Segger programmer. This is currently contingent on the outcome of #6054 .
