+Norik Octopus IO-Board
+######################
+
+Overview
+********
+
+Octopus IO-Board is an expansion to the Octopus SoM, which is built around the nRF9160 SiP
+offering NB-IoT and LTE-M connectivity, GPS and accelerometer. Octopus IO-Board expands
+the capabilities of the Octopus SoM by providing additional peripherals and interfaces for
+development and prototyping of low-power IoT applications.
+
+nRF9160 SiP contains ARM Cortex-M33 application processor and the
+following devices:
+
+* :abbr:`ADC (Analog to Digital Converter)`
+* CLOCK
+* FLASH
+* :abbr:`GPIO (General Purpose Input Output)`
+* :abbr:`I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit)`
+* :abbr:`MPU (Memory Protection Unit)`
+* :abbr:`NVIC (Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller)`
+* :abbr:`PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)`
+* :abbr:`RTC (nRF RTC System Clock)`
+* Segger RTT (RTT Console)
+* :abbr:`SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface)`
+* :abbr:`UARTE (Universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter with EasyDMA)`
+* :abbr:`WDT (Watchdog Timer)`
+* :abbr:`IDAU (Implementation Defined Attribution Unit)`
+
+.. figure:: img/Norik_Octopus_IO-board.webp
+      :align: center
+      :alt: Norik Octopus IO-Board front view
+
+      Norik Octopus IO-Board
+
+Octopus IO Board offers the following features:
+
+* Battery charger
+* USB-C for power
+* Solar charger
+* Alkaline battery input
+* LDO regulator to power Octopus SoM and peripherals
+* Battery monitoring using ADC
+* 64 Mbit SPI NOR flash
+* Dedicated ADC, GPIO, I2C, SPI and UARTE pins for expansion
+* Exposed headers for current measurements
+* Nano SIM connector
+* Tag-Connect TC2030-IDC 6-pin connector for SWD programming and debugging
+* 2x3 pinheader for SWD programming and debugging
+
+Hardware
+********
+
+Connections and IOs
+===================
+
+The Octopus IO Board features multiple dedicated pin headers for peripherals:
+
+* 3x I2C0 bus
+* 2x SPI0 bus
+* 3x I2C1/SPI1 bus (selectable)
+* 1x UARTE0 bus
+* 1x Analog input (5 input pins)
+* 1x GPIO (7 I/O pins)
+
+The I2C1/SPI1 bus is selectable by the user by cutting/soldering SB8 and SB9 solder bridges and configuring the bus in the device tree.
+
+The GPIO pin header provides 7 I/O pins, which can be used as digital input/output. Some of them also serve as chip selects for SPI peripherals.
+
+Power supply
+============
+
+The Octopus IO Board can be powered from the following sources:
+
+* USB-C connector
+* Solar cell
+* Alkaline battery
+* Li-Po battery
+
+When powered from USB-C or solar cell, the board can charge the Li-Po battery. The battery voltage can be monitored using ADC which can
+provide information about the battery State of charge (SOC).
+
+When powered from alkaline battery, the user needs to set switch SW1 to ALK position. This ensures that the Li-Ion battery is not charged from the alkaline battery.
+
+The board has a built-in LDO regulator that is used to power the Octopus SoM and peripherals. The EN2 pin can be used to enable/disable output 2 of the LDO regulator.
+This can be used to power off peripherals to save power when they are not needed.
+
+The board also has multiple built-in test points for measuring current consumption of the board, which enables the user to measure and optimize the power consumption of the board.
+
+Programming and Debugging
+*************************
+
+Norik Octopus IO board can be programmed and debugged using the Tag-Connect TC2030-IDC 6-pin connector or 6-pin SWD pinheader.
+
+Building an application
+=======================
+
+In most case you'll need to use ``octopus_io_board/nrf9160/ns`` target for building examples.
+Some examples don't require non secure mode and can be built with ``octopus_io_board/nrf9160`` target.
+
+Flashing
+========
+Refer to the instruction in the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to install and
+configure all the necessary software.
+
+Here is an example for the Hello World application.
+
+First, run your favorite terminal program to listen for output.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ minicom /dev/<tty_device> 115200
+
+Replace <tty_device> with the port where the Octopus IO-Board can be found. For example, under Linux, /dev/ttyACM0.
+
+Then build and flash the application in the usual way.
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
+   :board: octopus_io_board/nrf9160
+   :goals: build flash
+
+To build and flash the application in non-secure mode, use the following command:
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
+   :board: octopus_io_board/nrf9160/ns
+   :goals: build flash
+
+Debugging
+=========
+Refer to the instruction in the :ref:`nordic_segger` page for information on
+debugging.
+
+Testing the on-board LED
+========================
+Use the :zephyr:code-sample:`blinky` to test the on-board LED. Build and flash the example to make sure Zephyr is running correctly on your board.
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
+   :board: octopus_io_board/nrf9160
+   :goals: build flash
