Configuration

Please use ty51822r3 ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:ty51822r3]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = ty51822r3

You can override default Switch Science mbed TY51822r3 settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest ty51822r3.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:ty51822r3]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = ty51822r3

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = nrf51822

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 32000000L

Uploading

Switch Science mbed TY51822r3 supports the next uploading protocols:

  • cmsis-dap

  • mbed

Default protocol is cmsis-dap

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

[env:ty51822r3]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = ty51822r3

upload_protocol = cmsis-dap

Debugging

PIO Unified Debugger - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

Warning

You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

Switch Science mbed TY51822r3 has on-board debug probe and IS READY for debugging. You don’t need to use/buy external debug probe.

Description

mbed

The mbed framework The mbed SDK has been designed to provide enough hardware abstraction to be intuitive and concise, yet powerful enough to build complex projects. It is built on the low-level ARM CMSIS APIs, allowing you to code down to the metal if needed. In addition to RTOS, USB and Networking libraries, a cookbook of hundreds of reusable peripheral and module libraries have been built on top of the SDK by the mbed Developer Community.
