1. Introduction
MediaTek LinkIt™ 2523 hardware development kit (HDK) is a fully functional development platform for RTOS for IoT
and Wearable applications powered by MediaTek 2523G, an ARM Cortex‐M4 core‐based microcontroller unit (MCU).
The HDK has rich connectivity features and interfaces such as SPI, I2S, PCM, UART, ADC, PWM, JTAG and clock out
generators.
The LinkIt 2523 HDK enables application development, prototyping and evaluation using sensors, Bluetooth, Bluetooth
low energy, GNSS, audio (speech, headset and speaker), MIPI, serial, camera serial interface, keypad, battery
management, micro SD and eMMC portable storage support, USB (2.0). The LinkIt 2523 HDK also has built‐in antenna
that is able to receive Bluetooth (2.1 to 4.0), and GNSS (GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou) signals. In addition, the USB to serial
wire debug (SWD) converter and JTAG feature provides convenient development and debugging process.
The MT2523 HDK supports OpenSDA to provide more streamlined development for debugging and flashing the
binary code.
This user manual covers MT2523G and MT2523D integrated chipsets. The functions and pin assignments from both
chipsets are identical, except the MT2523D doesn't support GNSS communication.
The user manual guides you through the following.
