3.2 EM35x Breakout Board
Figure 3.2. EM35x Breakout Board
The
Breakout Board
(shown in the figure above) serves as test beds for network hardware and applications. Each Breakout Board has
an associated EM35x Module, which can be deployed as a node within a network application. Each Breakout Board connects with a
Debug Adapter (ISA3) through two communication links: the Packet Trace Port and the DEI Port. This allows the Breakout Board’s
EM35x Module to interface with the development environment through the Debug Adapter (ISA3)’s Packet Trace Port and its wired
Ethernet connection. The Breakout Board also has a prototype breadboard area for application-specific hardware development.
The Breakout Board has the following components:
• External power supply connectors
• One DB-9 serial port connector for RS-232 serial communication
• One USB connector for EM35x SC1 virtual COM port serial communication
• One USB connector for EM358x USB virtual COM port serial communication
• One header with TTL-compliant UART signals for EM35x SC1 SPI serial communication
• A buzzer, two buttons, two LEDs, and a temperature sensor for application development purposes
• External serial flash for application bootloader purposes (via either EM35x SC1 or SC2)
• Hardware reset buttons for the EM35x module
• Prototype or bread-boarding area (28 x 20, 0.1” pitch array) for application-specific hardware development
• One data emulation interface connector
