- | [[nblocks:n-PRO|n-PRO-60]] board features Octavo Systems OSD3358 1GHz ARM® Cortex-A8 microcontroller and is designed to get started with simple, rapid prototyping and evaluation, [[nblocks:n-ble|n-PRO-10]] development boards work with industry's leading partner toolchains. [[nblocks:n-ble|n-PRO-10]] is an end-to-end solution enabling embedded engineers to develop their applications from initial evaluation to final production.This board is populated with the LPC1769 to demonstrate and enable evaluate of the features of the LPC1700 product series. The board includes an on-board, CMSIS-DAP compatible debug probe as well as a connector for use with 3rd party debug probes. | + | [[nblocks:n-PRO|n-PRO-60]] board features Octavo Systems OSD3358 1GHz ARM® Cortex-A8 microcontroller. It integrates the AM335x, TPS65217C Power Management IC, TL5209 Low Voltage Dropout Regulator,1GB DDR3 Memory and 4KB EEPROM. The baord space is smartly used in n-PRO-60. It allows the user to get started quickly with the design without spending time on the complexity of PMIC or DDR3 interface and significantly reduces design time. It is compatible with AM335x development tools and software. The compact design also offers access to many of the interfaces and the 4 x 60 pins Hirose Connectors allows additional functionality. |

+ | * Download the lastest Debian image from beagleboard.org/latest-images. The "IoT" images provide more free disk space if you don't need to use a graphical user interface (GUI). | ||
+ | * The file you download will have an .img.xz extension. This is a compressed sector-by-sector image of the SD card. | ||
+ | * Install SD card programming utility [[https://www.balena.io/etcher/|Balena Etcher]] | ||
+ | {{:nblocks:n-pro-60-04.jpg?400|}} | ||
+ | * Connect SD card to your PC. | ||
+ | * Write the image to SD card using Etcher. | ||
+ | {{:nblocks:n-pro-60-05.jpg?400|}} | ||
+ | * Eject the SD card. | ||
+ | * Insert SD card into your (powered-down) board, hold down the USER/BOOT button (if using Black) and apply power, either by the USB cable or 5V adapter. | ||
