kv260

The KV260 DUT can be automated using the kv260 boards MIB.

Components

The following components are required to fully automate the board:

  • kv 260 boards MIB

  • Short RJ45 network cable

  • USB-A male to MicroUSB male cable

  • Micro SD Card

  • 2.5/5.5mm barrel jack to MIB 2-pin connector, wired centre positive

  • NF-A4x10 FLX Premium Fan

  • Fan heatsink

Software

In order for the kv260 DUT to be easily testable by LAVA please refer to this repo:

Hardware modification

In order to automate recovery, the DUT hardware should be modified.

Hardware modification

The DUT will not be automatizable without this modification.

Fan and Heatsink

We suggest this fan.

heatsink

NF-A4x10 FLX Premium Fan

Connect it to the kv260 with the “3:2-pin Adaptor NA-AC2” as shown.

Connect the fan

FWUEN button

A two-wires cable should be soldered around the FWUEN button. This will be used to drive the value high or low to trigger recovery.

Recovery

Connect the recovery wires cable to the KV260 MIB header labeled FWUEN as indicated above.

Network

Connect the kv260 network interface to the LAA private network interface as indicated above.

Power

The kv260 gets power from the 2.5/5.5mm barrel jack connected to the board and the 12V header on the MIB.

Serial

Connect a USB cable from the carrier board MicroUSB port to USB on the MIB as shown above.

USB

Connect the LAA USB OTG port (front facing) to the kv260 USB-A socket shown in the picture above.

SD Card

Please take an SD Card of at least 16Gb and format it. Then insert it in the SD card slot on the kv260 board.
