  1. Find the Quickstart Panel in the lower left-hand corner and click on Import SDK example(s)
  2. Click on the FRDMKE17Z512 board to select that you want to import an example that can run on that board, and then click on Next
  3. Use the arrow button to expand the demo_apps category, click on the checkbox next to led_blinky to select it. To use the UART for printing (instead of the default semihosting), Select UART as the SDK Debug Console checkbox under the project options. Then, click on Finish

    4. GS-FRDMKE17Z512-IMG17

    GS-FRDMKE17Z512-IMG17
  4. Click on the “led_blinky” project in the Project Explorer View and build, compile and run the demo as described in the previous section
  5. You should see the RED LED blinky
  6. Terminate the debug session

4.2 Clone an Example Project using MCUXpresso Config Tool for 3rd Party IDE

The following steps will guide you through the manipulation of the general-purpose outputs. The example sets up a led blinky demo.

  1. Open the MCUXpresso Config Tool
  2. In the wizard that comes up, select the “Create a new configuration based on an SDK example or hello word project” radio button and click on Next
  3. On the next screen, select the location of the MCUXpresso SDK. The SDK package must be unzipped beforehand. Then select the IDE that is being used. Note that only IDEs that were selected in the online SDK builder when the SDK was built will be available and click on clone select example. Then select the project to clone. For this example, we want to use the gpio led output project. You can filter for this by typing “gpio” in the filter box and then selecting the “gpio_led_output” example project. You can then also specify where to clone the project and the name. Then click on Finish
  4. After cloning go to the directory you selected and open the project for your IDE. Import, compile and run the project as done in previous sections.
  5. You should see that the LED RED is taking turns to shine
  6. Terminate the debug session

4.3 Use MCUXpresso IDE Pins Tools

Note: Previously, you had to clone an SDK project like in the previous step.

  1. Open the pins tool by selecting “ConfigTools” on the top-right hand of the file explorer window and then select “Open Pins”
  2. The pins tool should now display the pin configuration for the ctimer project

4.4 Use the Pins Tools to Modify the LED Routed Pin

  1. We’ll use MCUXpresso IDE for the rest of the instructions, but the same steps can be done in MCUXpresso Config tools for third-party IDEs. In the Pins view deselect “Show dedicated pins” and “Show no routed pins” checkboxes to see only the routed pins. Routed pins have a check in a green box next to the pin name. The functions selected for each routed pin are highlighted in green.
  2. In the current configuration, PTD10 is routed as the outputs to control the RED LED. Let’s add the pin configuration to enable the BLUE LED
  3. Select “Show no routed pins” to see the other options. To enable the BLUE LED, search for GPIOD and select GPIOD, 12 under the GPIO column.
  4. Next configure the GPIO pin as an output in the “Routing Details” window
  5. Now, it's time to implement these changes into the project by exporting the new updated pin_mux.c and pin_mux.h files that are generated by the Pins tool. Click on Update Project in the menu bar
  6. The screen that pops up will show the files that are changing and you can click on “diff” to see the difference between the current file and the new file generated by the Pins tool. Click on “OK” to overwrite the new files into your project

    7. Note: The clocks and other files may also be tagged as being updated since the header has been changed

  7. Let's add some additional code to the example. Open led_blinky.c file and add the following macros to initialize the BLUE LED
  8. In the main function, add the GPIO_PortToggle function to control the BLUE LED. In the demo, the BLUE LED and RED LED will be toggled at the same time
  9. Build and download the project as done in the previous section
  10. Run the application. You should now see the BLUE LED and RED LED toggled at the same time. The LED is blinking and shows a purple color
  11. Terminate the debug session

5. MCUXpresso Developer Experience

Check out each of the following sections, to learn about the ecosystem provided for flexible protyping and development. In the video below, we will introduce you to the FRDM platform, the full-featured EVK and the compatible shields for extended capabilities. In addition, we will walk you through our Application Code Hub portal where we provide numerous application examples through NXP's GitHub.

5.1 FRDM Platform, Full feature EVK and Shields

For quick prototyping platforms, we offer both the low-cost FRDM platform and the full-featured EVK.

FRDM Development Boards come with standard form factor and headers, easy access to MCU I/Os, onboard MCU-Link debugger and a USB micro B cable. Our full features evaluation kits include extended I/O and interface access, extendable with WiFi and additional MCU-Link features. There are also many compatible Click Board and/or Arduino shields. For those that are supported with an Open CMSIS Pack example may be available on ACH, but if not many of them are easy to use via serial interface like I2C, SPI and UART, for which we provide drivers with examples in the MCUXpresso SDK.

5.2 Application Code Hub

The Application Code Hub further enhances our MCUXpresso Developer Experience by giving developers an interactive dashboard to quickly locate software. Visit the ACH  today to start exploring or discover additional details and benefits of the new interactive Application Code Hub.

Software accessible from Application Code Hub is located in NXP’s GitHub repository  so it can be easily accessed and cloned from that location directly.

5.3 Demo Walkthrough

The following demo walks us through importing a project from ACH using a system based on the FRDM platform with a motor control shield and a low-cost LCD. Although your evaluation board may differ from this system, the following steps can be replicated and used for all supported platforms.
