+.. zephyr:code-sample:: mbox_data
+   :name: MBOX Data
+   :relevant-api: mbox_interface
+
+   Perform inter-processor mailbox communication using the MBOX API with data.
+
+Overview
+********
+
+This sample demonstrates how to use the :ref:`MBOX API <mbox_api>` in data transfer mode.
+It can be used only with mbox driver which supports data transfer mode.
+
+Sample will ping-pong 4 bytes of data between two cores via two mbox channels.
+After each core receives data, it increments it by one and sends it back to other core.
+
+Building and Running
+********************
+
+The sample can be built and executed on boards supporting MBOX with data transfer mode.
+
+Building the application for mimxrt1160_evk_cm7
+===============================================

+Sample Output
+=============
+
+Open a serial terminal (minicom, putty, etc.) and connect the board with the
+following settings:
+
+- Speed: 115200
+- Data: 8 bits
+- Parity: None
+- Stop bits: 1
+
+Reset the board and the following message will appear on the corresponding
+serial port, one is the main core another is the remote core:
