Before You Begin

Before you begin working with this BSP, you should become familiar with the resources available to you.

Essential information

Before you install your BSP, review the following documentation:

• Information about your board's hardware and firmware provided by the vendor of the board. This user's guide is intended for the Phytec phyBOARD-NASH that's used with the Phytec phyBOARD NASH Documentation (https://phytec.github.io/doc-bsp-yocto/bsp/imx9/imx93/imx93.html) for the Phytec phyBOARD NASH can be found on the Phytec website.
• Building Embedded Systems. This guide contains general information about working with BSPs from QNX that's common to all BSPs and is available from the QNX Software Development Platform 8.0 documentation.

Required software

To work with this BSP, you require the following:

• BSP ZIP file for the board. To work with this BSP, you'll unzip this BSP ZIP file into BSP_ROOT_DIR, where BSP_ROOT_DIR is an environment that represents the work directory where you extracted your BSP ZIP file. Throughout this guide, we refer to the directory that you extracted your ZIP file to as BSP_ROOT_DIR or bsp_working_dir. For more information, see Download and set up the BSP in the Installation Notes chapter of this guide.
• QNX Software Development Platform 8.0 installed on a Linux or Windows host system.
• Virtual COM Port (VCP) Driver. This driver must be installed on your host system that connects to the board. To get the driver and read more information about it, see the Future Technology Devices International Ltd. (FTDI) website at http://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm.
• A terminal emulation program (e.g., Qtalk, Hyperterminal, PuTTy, etc.) to connect to the board for debugging. Alternatively, you can use a a serial or ssh session from the QNX Momentics IDE.
