Overview
The Coral Dev Board is a single-board computer that's ideal when you need to perform fast machine learning (ML)
inferencing in a small form factor. You can use the Dev Board to prototype your embedded system and then scale to
production using the on-board Coral System-on-Module (SoM) combined with your custom PCB hardware.
The SoM provides a fully-integrated system, including NXP's iMX8M system-on-chip (SoC), eMMC memory, LPDDR4
RAM, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, but its unique power comes from Google's Edge TPU coprocessor. The Edge TPU is a small
ASIC designed by Google that provides high performance ML inferencing with a low power cost. For example, it can
execute state-of-the-art mobile vision models such as MobileNet v2 at almost 400 FPS, in a power efficient manner.
The baseboard provides all the peripheral connections you need to prototype a project, including USB 2.0/3.0 ports, DSI
display interface, CSI-2 camera interface, Ethernet port, speaker terminals, and a 40-pin I/O header.
Key benefits of the Dev Board:
High-speed and low-power ML inferencing (4 TOPS @ 2W)
A complete Linux system (running Mendel, a Debian derivative)
Prototyping and evaluation board for the small Coral SoM (40 x 48mm)

Baseboard connections
The baseboard on the Coral Dev Board provides a variety of connectors as shown in figure 4.
Figure 4. Connectors on the Coral Dev Board
I/O header pinout
All I/O pins on the 40-pin header are powered by the 3.3V power rail, with a programmable impedance of 40-
255ohms, and a max current of ~82mA.
All I/O pins have a 90k pull-down resistor inside the iMX 8M SoC that is used by default during bootup, except for the
I2C pins, which instead have a pull-up to 3.3V on the SoM. However, these can all be changed with a device tree
overlay that loads after bootup.
You can interact with each pin using standard Linux interfaces such as device files (/dev) and sysfs files (/sys). For
usage information, see Connect to the Dev Board I/O pins.
Caution: Do not connect a device that draws more than ~82mA of power or you will brownout the
system.

Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter (UART)
Each UARTv2 module supports the following:
7- or 8-bit data words, 1 or 2 stop bits, programmable parity (even, odd, or none).
Programmable baud rates up to 4Mbps.
32-byte FIFO on Tx and 32 half-word FIFO on Rx supporting auto-baud.
Note: By default, the Mendel operating system configures UART1 for use with the the serial console.
Synchronous Audio Interface (SAI)
Each SAI module supports full duplex serial interfaces with frame synchronization, such as I2S, AC97, TDM, and
codec/DSP interfaces.
Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C)
Serial interface for external devices.
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
Full-duplex enhanced Synchronous Serial Interface, with data rate up to 52Mbit/s. Configurable to support
Master/Slave modes, four chip selects to support multiple peripherals.
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
Operates on a frequency of 0-66Mhz. Provides a 16-bit counter and is optimized to generate sound from stored sample
audio images. It can drive motors and generate tones. It uses 16-bit resolution and a 4x16 data FIFO to generate sound.
Serial console port
The micro-USB port (see "serial console" in figure 4) provides access to the serial console based on the CP210x USB to
UART Bridge Controller. Only Linux and Mac are officially supported for serial console connections, as follows.
Version 1.6 (July 2020)
Copyright 2020 Google LLC. All rights reserved.
Connect with Linux
. Run the following commands to add the required udev rule:
sudo sh -c "echo 'SUBSYSTEM==\"usb\", ATTR{idVendor}==\"0525\", MODE=\"0664\", \
GROUP=\"plugdev\", TAG+=\"uaccess\"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/65-edgetpu-board.rules"
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger
. Determine the device filename for the serial connection by running this command on your Linux computer:
dmesg | grep ttyUSB
You should see two results such as this:
[ 6437.706335] usb 2-13.1: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[ 6437.708049] usb 2-13.1: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB1
. Use the name of the
first
filename listed as a cp210x converter to open the serial console connection (this
example uses ttyUSB0 as shown from above):
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
Connect with Mac
. Install the following device driver.
Caution: Before installing the following package, be sure you've applied all available macOS software
updates. Otherwise, you might be blocked from installing due to system security that disables the Allow
button in System Preferences.
Install the CP210x USB to UART Bridge Virtual COM Port (VCP) driver for Mac.
. Connect with this command:
screen /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART 115200
Version 1.6 (July 2020)
Copyright 2020 Google LLC. All rights reserved.
Help! If screen prints Cannot access line '/dev/ttyUSB0', then your Linux user account is not in the
plugdev and/or dialout system group. Ask your system admin to add your account to both groups, and
then restart your computer for it to take effect.
If you see [screen is terminating], it might also be due to the system groups, or there's something else
wrong with screenensure all screen sessions are closed (type screen -ls to see open sessions), unplug the
USB cable from the Dev Board, and then try again.
Tip: You can also connect to the board via MDT (only with boards running Mendel 3.0 or higher).
HDMI port
This is a full-size HDMI 2.0a port.
By default, the output is locked at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 to avoid GPU pressure and power costs when driving
higher resolution displays.
If your display does not support 1920 x 1080, you can change this setting by editing file at
/etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini: In the [output] section, edit the line mode=1920x1080 to be a resolution of your choice.
You may also delete this line completely, and it will then use the highest resolution supported by the monitor (but doing
so can degrade the overall system performance if it is higher than 1920x1080).
USB 3.0 ports
There are three USB 3.0 ports:
USB Type-A host: Operates as a USB 3.0 host that can provide power. Use this port for your peripherals, such as a
USB camera.
Caution: Do not connect a device that draws more than 1A of power or you will brownout the system.
USB Type-C data: Operates as a USB "on the go" (OTG) device port, so the Dev Board appears as a USB device to a
connected host device. Use this port to connect to the shell over USB or to flash the board.
USB Type-C power: Use this to power the board with a 2-3A at 5V DC connection.
Ethernet port
The Gigabit Ethernet port (RJ45) supports 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 networks.

4-pin stereo terminal
We recommend using a 4 ohm, 3 watt speaker. A higher ohmage results in a much quieter output.
The stereo terminal is a 4-pin 2.54mm-pitch terminal connector for stereo speakers. Wire functions are as follows
(from left to right, as shown in figure 5):
1: Speaker left positive
2: Speaker left negative
3: Speaker right positive
4: Speaker right negative
Figure 5. Stereo speaker terminals
MicroSD slot
The MicroSD card meets the SD/SDIO standard, up to version 3.0. It can be used as expanded memory for the system
or as the disk for the system image. If the entire system fails, you can use the SD card to reflash U-Boot onto the board
(see the flashing instructions).

System power
The Coral Dev Board must be powered by 2-3A at 5V DC using the USB Type-C power port (see figure 4).
Caution: Do not attempt to power the board by connecting it to your computer.
The SoM has one primary PMIC (BD71837MWV) from Rohm for the iMX8M SoC complex, LPDDR4, eMMC, and Wi-
Fi/Bluetooth. It integrates 8 DC-DC buck regulators and 7 LDOs to provide all power rails required by iMX8M SoC and
commonly used peripherals.
Boot mode
The baseboard includes 4 switches (indicated in figure 7 to control the boot mode. By default, they are set to boot from
eMMC. You can change the boot mode as follows.

System reset
You can restart the system with the RESET button shown in figure 8.
Figure 8. System reset button
Software and operation
The Dev Board factory setting includes only the U-Boot bootloader software on the eMMC memory. To use the board,
you need to flash the Mendel operating system (a derivative of Debian Linux). For instructions, see the Get started
guide.
The Mendel system includes software that's specially-designed for the Dev Board and required to operate the Edge TPU.
It also includes Python APIs that make it easy to perform inferences with TensorFlow Lite models.
For information about how to create models and run inferences on the Edge TPU, read TensorFlow models on the Edge
TPU.
Caution: Avoid touching the heat sink during operation. Whether or not the fan is running, the heat sink
can become very hot to the touch and might cause burn injuries.
Version 1.6 (July 2020)
Copyright 2020 Google LLC. All rights reserved.
Caution: Do not unplug the Dev Board to shut it down. Doing so could corrupt the system image if any
write operations are in progress. Instead, safely shutdown the system with the following command:
sudo shutdown now
When the red LED on the Dev Board turns off, you can unplug the power.
LED behavior
The Dev Board has two sets of on-board LED lights: one LED for power status, and a pair of LEDs providing the status of
the serial port.
The Ethernet port also has a pair of LED lights.
Power LED
The LED that provides power status is situated between the Power (PWR) and USB On-The-Go (OTG) ports. It lights up
red when the board is powered up and switches off when either power is removed or the main SoC is shut down (for
example, when a sudo shutdown command is issued).
Serial port LEDs
The board has green and yellow LEDs near the serial console connector (USB micro-B), those show TX/RX activity via
serial interface. The green LED lights up when there is activity on the RX line (indicating data is being received over the
serial interface), while the yellow LED lights up when there is activity on the TX line (indicating that data is being
transmitted over the serial interface).
SoM hardware details
The system-on-module (SoM) included with the Dev Board is based on NXP's iMX8M system-on-chip (SoC) and
contains all the essential system hardware, including the Edge TPU and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth radios. It is attached to the Dev
Board baseboard with three 100-pin board-to-board connectors.
Note: If you are interested in using the Coral SoM with custom PCB hardware (instead of the baseboard
provided with the Dev Board), you can learn more about the standalone SoM in the Coral SoM datasheet.
Figure 9 shows the dimensions of the SoM.
