5.5 Potentiometer
A single-turn potentiometer is connected as a potential divider to analogue input AN0, P60. The potentiometer can
be used to create a voltage between AVCC and ground (by default, AVCC is connected to the board 5V supply).
The potentiometer is fitted to offer an easy method of supplying a variable analogue input to the microcontroller. It does
not necessarily reflect the accuracy of the controller’s ADC. Refer to the device hardware manual for further details.
5.6 Debug LCD Module
A debug LCD module is supplied with the RSK, and should be connected to the LCD header, LCD1.
Care should be taken when installing the LCD module to ensure pins are not bent or damaged. The LCD module is
vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD); therefore appropriate ESD protection should be used.
The debug LCD module uses a 4-bit interface to reduce pin allocation. No contrast control is provided, as this is set
by a resistor supplied on the display module. Connection information for the debug LCD module is provided in
Table 5-4 below.

5.7 RS232 Serial Port
Serial port SCI0 is connected to the standard RS232 header fitted to the RSK. Alternatively, serial port SCI1 or
SCI2-A can be connected to the RS232 transceiver by making changes to the configurations to the jumpers and
option links (refer to §6). Connections between the RS232 header and the microcontroller are listed in the
Table 5-5.
