Power connection method with Telink Burning Board TLSR9518A supports a easy debug method. Only three wires are needed. 5V from Telink Burning Board is connected to VBUS from TLSR9518ADK80D. SWM from Telink Burning Board is connected to SWS form TLSR9518ADK80D. GND from Telink Burning Board is connected to GND form TLSR9518ADK80D.
Power connection method with TLSR9 DEV KEY A RISC-V core is embedded in TLSR9518A, so TLSR9518A support JTAG debug. The 2x6 connector on the left of mini USB interface is JTAG interface. At the beginning, user connect TLSR9 DEV KEY to the JTAG interface using DuPont wires one by one. Then, user can use Telink IDE tool to download FW. Right now, please check if DIP button is under the right setting. It supports 2-wire JTAG interface when “1” button is on, “2” button is off.
RF test Power on firstly, then connect RF SMA through cable to equipment or through whip antenna when verifying chipset or develop function. The corresponding tool is EMI tool which can be gotten from wiki.
Dual analog microphone function Dual analog microphone function is enable when following the jumper setting as below.
Audio input path test Dual analog microphone function is enable under default setting. When testing audio input path, please change jumper setting as below, the others which are not showed are kept in their original position. Some audio analyzer can be used for testing, such as APx525.
Audio output path test All jumpers are kept in default setting, and the connection of audio output path is as below. Some audio analyzer can be used for testing, such as APx525.
Audio input/output path demo Sometimes, user wants to listen to music directly in development stage. Then, the connection is as below.
GPIO test All of GPIOs of TLSR9518A have been connected to PINs. Then user can ready corresponding schematic and test all GPIOs.
