About the Connect Core MP15
The Digi Connect Core® MP15 development kit and System-on-Module (SOM)
platform is a highly integrated, cost-effective, connected, secure embedded
solution, built on the STM32MP15x MPU family. It integrates memory, power
management, the Digi Microcontroller Assist™, pre-certified wireless

Interfaces
The following interfaces are available on the ConnectCore MP15 development board:
Power interfaces
This section describes the Connect Core MP15 development board power interfaces.
DC-in jack connector
The input voltage of the Connect Core MP1 Development Board is 5V. This input
power supply can be provided from two different connectors:
- DC-in power jack.
- J7, a 2-pin, 2.54 mm pitch connector:
Pin | Signal name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | VIN | 5V power supply |
2 | GND |
Note Digi recommends not powering both connectors at the same time.
An overvoltage circuit protects the board from overvoltage and overcurrent
events. Downstream from these input power protections, there are two
regulators/switches for powering the carrier board circuitry:
- 5V Load switch (U6): A 5V load switch that controls the power delivery to different interfaces on the carrier board.
- PCIe regulator (U7): A dedicated adjustable regulator for the PC I.e. socket.
Coin cell connector
Connector J10 on the board is included for attaching an external coin-cell
to the system:
Pin | Signal name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | VCC_LICELL | Power supply for RTC |
2 | GND |
Power and reset buttons
One power button (SW1) and one reset button (SW2) are included on the
development board.
System boot
The Connect Core MP1 module supports different boot modes (see the Connect Core MP1 System-on Module Hardware Reference Manual for detailed information). The development board supports these boot modes, although some of them require changes to the populated components. A quadruple switch (S1) allows swapping between eight different boot modes:
S1.1 | S1.2 | S1.3 | Boot mode |
---|---|---|---|
Open | Open | Open | On-module NAND |
Open | Open | Close | Serial NAND flash |
Open | Close | Open | Serial NOR flash |
Open | Close | Close | MicroSD card |
Close | Open | Open | eMMC |
Close | Open | Close | UART and USB Port 2 |
Close | Close | Open | UART and USB Port 1 |
Close | Close | Close | Reserved |
Debug interfaces
JTAG
The ConnectCore MP15 Development Board provides a Tag Connect footprint for
accessing the STM32MP1 JTAG debug port. Additionally, a standard 10-pin,
1.27mm pitch connector (J21) is available for accessing the JTAG interface:

Console port
A dedicated USB micro AB-type port (J14) provides access to the console port
of the ConnectCore MP1 system-on-module. This USB port is routed directly to
the CY7C65211 bridge, which converts the USB bus into TTL level. UART4 is used
as the console debug port of the STM32MP1 CPU. This UART can also be accessed
directly at TTL level through J20 connector:
Pin | Signal name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | UART4_TX | UART transmission line |
2 | UART4_RX | UART receiver line |
3 | VDD | 3.3V Power supply |

Multimedia
Parallel/LVDS display
The ConnectCore MP15 provides a 24-bit RGB LCD interface available through a
40-pin, 0.5 mm pitch, FFC connector. Backlight control signal, I2C port, and
interrupt line for the touch screen panel are available on the LCD connector.
