GD32VF103V-EVAL
===============

.. contents::

Hardware
--------

Platform :ref:`platform_gd32v`: The GigaDevice GD32V device is a 32-bit general-purpose microcontroller based on the RISC-V core with an impressive balance of processing power, reduced power consumption and peripheral set.

.. list-table::

  * - **Microcontroller**
    - GD32VF103VBT6
  * - **Frequency**
    - 108MHz
  * - **Flash**
    - 128KB
  * - **RAM**
    - 32KB
  * - **Vendor**
    - `Sipeed <https://www.sipeed.com/?utm_source=platformio.org&utm_medium=docs>`__


Configuration
-------------

Please use ``gd32vf103v-eval`` ID for :ref:`projectconf_env_board` option in :ref:`projectconf`:

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:gd32vf103v-eval]
  platform = gd32v
  board = gd32vf103v-eval

You can override default GD32VF103V-EVAL settings per build environment using
``board_***`` option, where ``***`` is a JSON object path from
board manifest `gd32vf103v-eval.json <https://github.com/sipeed/platform-gd32v/blob/master/boards/gd32vf103v-eval.json>`_. For example,
``board_build.mcu``, ``board_build.f_cpu``, etc.

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:gd32vf103v-eval]
  platform = gd32v
  board = gd32vf103v-eval

  ; change microcontroller
  board_build.mcu = GD32VF103VBT6

  ; change MCU frequency
  board_build.f_cpu = 108000000L


Uploading
---------
GD32VF103V-EVAL supports the next uploading protocols:

* ``altera-usb-blaster``
* ``gd-link``
* ``jlink``
* ``rv-link``
* ``serial``
* ``sipeed-rv-debugger``
* ``um232h``

Default protocol is ``gd-link``

You can change upload protocol using :ref:`projectconf_upload_protocol` option:

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:gd32vf103v-eval]
  platform = gd32v
  board = gd32vf103v-eval

  upload_protocol = gd-link

Debugging
---------

:ref:`piodebug` - "1-click" solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

.. warning::
    You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system.
    Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further
    instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging :ref:`debugging_tools` using
:ref:`projectconf_debug_tool` option in :ref:`projectconf`.

GD32VF103V-EVAL does not have on-board debug probe and **IS NOT READY** for debugging. You will need to use/buy one of external probe listed below.
