## Hardware

Platform Teensy: Teensy is a complete USB-based microcontroller development system, in a very small footprint, capable of implementing many types of projects. All programming is done via the USB port. No special programmer is needed, only a standard USB cable and a PC or Macintosh with a USB port.

Microcontroller | IMXRT1062
Frequency | 600MHz
Flash | 7.75MB
RAM | 512KB
Vendor | Teensy

## Configuration

Please use `teensy41` ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

    [env:teensy41]
    platform = teensy
    board = teensy41

You can override default Teensy 4.1 settings per build environment using `board_***` option, where `***` is a JSON object path from board manifest teensy41.json. For example, `board_build.mcu`, `board_build.f_cpu`, etc.

    [env:teensy41]
    platform = teensy
    board = teensy41

    ; change microcontroller
    board_build.mcu = imxrt1062

    ; change MCU frequency
    board_build.f_cpu = 600000000L

## Uploading

Teensy 4.1 supports the next uploading protocols:

- `jlink`

- `teensy-gui`

Default protocol is `teensy-gui`

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

    [env:teensy41]
    platform = teensy
    board = teensy41

    upload_protocol = teensy-gui

## Debugging

PIO Unified Debugger - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

Warning

You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

Teensy 4.1 does not have on-board debug probe and IS NOT READY for debugging. You will need to use/buy one of external probe listed below.
