1. Introduction
This document provides guidance in setting up the Display Kit hardware, part number AMAP4DISP,
revision 1, on the Apollo4 Evaluation Board (EVB), revision 3, to get started executing memory and display
examples and measuring power consumption in various configurations. The Apollo4 Display Kit is also
intended to provide an introduction to the GUI Builder.

4. Quick Start
The Apollo4 Display Kit comes with the following items:
▪ Apollo4 Evaluation Board (EVB), revision 3
▪ Apollo4 Display Shield, revision 1
▪ USB Type C cable
▪ Four adhesive-backed rubber feet
▪ Extra jumpers
Caution: The EVB has components loaded on the back of the board. Care should be taken to not damage
these components. The included rubber feet should be applied to the bottom of the board to prevent direct
contact between the components and a desk surface.
The EVB in the Apollo4 Display Kit comes with jumpers pre-configured for default operation. Also, it has
been pre-programmed with the nemagfx_balls_bench example program. To begin EVB program
execution, first carefully attach the Apollo4 Display Shield to the Apollo4 EVB. Press the two boards
together as evenly as possible until the display shield is fully seated on the connectors of the EVB. Then
connect the USB-C cable from a USB port on a PC to the J-Link USB connector (J6) on the EVB, and turn
on the power switch (SW4). The blue LED under the power switch should illuminate. The display should
immediately display balls of various colors and sizes bouncing around the display, blending their colors
where they intersect.
The AmbiqSuite SDK provides many example programs that may be run on the Display Kit. To run these
examples, download the SDK via the link provided above and select any of the pre-built examples in the
SDK at /boards/apollo4b_bga_evb_disp_shld/examples.

5. Overview of the Apollo4 Display Kit
The Apollo4 Display Kit consists of two PCB assemblies:
1. The Apollo4 EVB (AMAP4EVB), revision 3 or later
2. The Apollo4 Display Shield revision 1
Please note that the Apollo4 Display Kit is only compatible with the (non-blue) Apollo4 EVB, part number
AMAP4EVB.
The two board assemblies have combined features and interconnection according to the block diagram of
Figure 2.
