2 RabbitCore RCM3000
• 10-bit free-running PWM counter and four width registers
• Two-channel Input Capture can be used to time input signals from various port pins
• Two-channel Quadrature Decoder accepts inputs from external incremental encoder
modules
•
Six CMOS-compatible serial ports: maximum asynchronous baud rate of 1.84 Mbps ,
maximum synchronous baud rate of 7.35 Mbps. Four ports are configurable as a
clocked serial port (SPI), and two ports are configurable as SDLC/HDLC serial ports.
• Supports 1.15 Mbps IRDA transceiver
Appendix A, “RabbitCore RCM3000 Specifications,” provides detailed specifications for
the RCM3000.
In addition, two different RCM3000 models are available. In addition, the RCM3100
Series RabbitCore modules omit the RCM3000 Series’ Ethernet connectivity, but offer a
much smaller footprint, which is one-half the size of the RCM3000 Series.
1.2 Advantages of the RCM3000
• Fast time to market using a fully engineered, “ready to run” microprocessor core.
• Competitive pricing when compared with the alternative of purchasing and assembling
individual components.
• Easy C-language program development and debugging
• Utility programs for rapid production loading of programs.
• Generous memory size allows large programs with tens of thousands of lines of code,
and substantial data storage.
• Integrated Ethernet port for network connectivity, royalty-free TCP/IP software.
1.3 Development and Evaluation Tools
A complete Development Kit, including a Prototyping Board and Dynamic C develop-
ment software, is available for the RCM3000. The Development Kit puts together the
essentials you need to design an embedded microprocessor-based system rapidly and effi-
ciently.
See the RabbitCore RCM3000 Getting Started Manual for complete information on the
Development Kit.
