Section 3.9 has more details on the IDE interface. A Flash File system is also
provided with the TP400. Section 6.6 has details of the Flash File System.
When you want to use the TP400’s on-board floppy and graphics controllers then you
may make the appropriate connections to the TP400’s connectors and disable the
corresponding TP400 device at the TCDEV jumper areas E3 and E5. To disable the
TCDEV’s VGA chip you must also set the E6 jumpers all to the "DIS" position.
When development is complete the TP400 is removed from the TCDEV
Development System. It can then operate stand-alone, or be used with other PC/104
modules.
Refer to the TCDEV Technical Reference Manual for full details of the TCDEV.
1.6.4 TCONN Connector Breakout Board
After developing your product with the TCDEVPLUS you may be interested in using
our TCONN board for production.
The TCONN is a breakout board that provides an easy way of connecting to DSP
Design’s PC/104 processor boards. It mates with the I/O connectors of the PC/104
board, and provides standard PC compatible connectors for most of the peripherals.
All connectors are filtered, which greatly simplifies compliance with EMC standards.
Features include:
• PC/104 board plugs directly into the TCONN.
• All connectors filtered for good EMC performance.
• Two 6-pin mini-DIN connectors for keyboard and mouse.
• Keyboard and mouse power rails have thermal fuse protection.
• Three 9-way D-type connectors for serial ports.
• 25-way D-type connector for printer.
• 15-way high density D-type connector for VGA.
• Circular power inlet connector.
• Pin header carrying miscellaneous signals.
• Lithium battery for CMOS SRAM and RTC.
• Small speaker.
• Reset switch.
