2.2 Boot Mode Configurations
The device has four boot modes (one is reserved for NXP use). The boot mode is selected based on the binary value stored in
the internal BOOT_MODE register. Switch (SW8-3 & SW8-4) is used to select the boot mode on the MIMXRT1010 EVK Board.
Table 2. Boot Mode pin settings
BOOT_MODE[1:0] (SW8-3 SW8-4) BOOT Type
00 Boot From Fuses
01 Serial Downloader
10 Internal Boot
11 Reserved
Typically, the internal boot is selected for normal boot, which is configured by external BOOT_CFG GPIOs. The following Table 3
shows the typical Boot Mode and Boot Device settings.

For more information about boot mode configuration, see the System Boot chapter of the MIMXRT1010 Reference
Manual
For more information about MIMXRT1010 EVK boot device selection and configuration, see the main board
schematic. (waiting for update)
NOTE
2.3 Power Tree
J41 and J9 can be used to supply the EVK Board. A DC 5V external power supply also can be used to supply the EVK Board by
connecting two pins in J1. Different power supply need to configure different Jumper setting of J1. Table 4 shows the details:
Table 4. Jumper settings of Power Supply
Power Supply J1 Setting
J9 3-4
J41 1-2
External 5-6(7-8)
For some computers’ USB, it cannot support 500ma before establishing communication. In this case, it is
recommended to replace the computer.
NOTE
The power tree is shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Power Tree
The power control logic of the MIMXRT1010 EVK board is shown in Figure 4:
• It will power up SNVS , and then PMIC_REQ_ON will be switched on to enable external DC/DC to power up other power
domains.
• ON/OFF button is used to switch ON/OFF PMIC_REQ_ON to control power modes.
• RESET button and WDOG output are used to reset the system power.

2.4 QSPI Flash
A 128 Mbit QSPI Flash is used on the MIMXRT1010 EVK Board. If the developer wants to boot from the QSPI Flash, the boot
device switch(SW8) settings should be: OFF, OFF, ON, OFF, as shown in Table 3.
2.5 USB PHY Connector
The MIMXRT1010 contains a integrated USB 2.0 PHYs capable of connecting to USB host/device systems at the USB low-speed
(LS) rate of 1.5 Mbits/s, full-speed (FS) rate of 12 Mbits/s or at the USB 2.0 high-speed (HS) rate of 480 Mbits/s.
2.6 Audio input / output Connector
The Audio CODEC used on the MIMXRT1010 EVK Board is Wolfson’s Low Power, high quality Stereo Codec, WM8960.The
MIMXRT1010 EVK Board include one headphone interface (J11), one onboard MIC (P1), two speaker interfaces (J12, J13) , and
the SPDIF interface (J52 & J53, DNP). J11 is a 3.5 mm audio stereo headphone jack, which supports jack detect.
2.7 OpenSDA circuit (DAP-Link)
The OpenSDA circuit (CMSIS–DAP) is an open-standard serial and debug adapter. It bridges serial and debug communications
between a USB host and an embedded target processor.
CMSIS-DAP features a mass storage device (MSD) bootloader, which provides a quick and easy mechanism for loading different
CMSIS-DAP Applications such as flash programmers, run-control debug interfaces, serial-to-USB converters, and more. Two or
more CMSIS-DAP applications can run simultaneously. For example, run-control debug application and serial-to-USB converter
runs in parallel to provide a virtual COM communication interface while allowing code debugging via CMSIS-DAP with just single
USB connection.
For the MIMXRT1010 EVK Board, J41 is the connector between the USB host and the target processor. Jumper to serial
downloader mode to use stable DAP-Link debugger function. If developer wants to make OpenSDA going to the bootloader mode,
and press SW9 when power on. Meanwhile, the OpenSDA supports drag/drop feature for U-Disk. First, use the seral downloader
mode and drag/drop the image file to U-Disk. Then select QSPI Flash as boot device and reset the Board, the image will run.
2.8 JTAG Connector
J55 is a standard 10-pin/1.27 mm Box Header Connector for JTAG. The pin definitions are shown in Figure 5 support SWD by
default.
