LinkSprite pcDuino2

The pcDuino V2 is an A10 based development board with Arduino compatible headers. Unlike many other A10 based boards, this one does not have a SATA connector.

= Identification =

On the back of the board, it helpfully says "pcDuino V2".

= Sunxi support =

Current status
Fully supported.

Manual build

 * For building u-boot, use the pcDuino target.
 * The .fex file can be found in sunxi-boards as linksprite_pcduino2.fex

Everything else is the same as the manual build howto.

Mainline U-Boot
For building mainline u-boot, use the Linksprite_pcDuino board name.

Mainline kernel
Use the sun4i-a10-pcduino.dts device-tree file for the mainline kernel.

= Tips, Tricks, Caveats =

FEL mode
The UPGRADE (SW2, near the HDMI connector) button triggers FEL mode.

LEDs
The board has 5 green LEDs. One of them is an always-on power indicator. Two LEDs labelled TX and RX are accessible via GPIO (using the PH15 and PH16 pins). One LED labelled CLK is connected to the PI11 pin, which can also have a dedicated use as SPI0_CLK. So this CLK LED serves either as an SPI activity indicator or just as an ordinary LED if no SPI hardware is connected. And there is also one more WIFI LED on the board, which is connected to the WIFI chip.

= Adding a serial port =



There is 2.54mm pitch header next to the Wifi Module, labelled "UART". All you need to do is connect some jumper wires according to our UART howto.
