• Two ADS7865 ADC modules on the controlCARD
– 12-bit, 2 MSPS, 6 channel ADC modules
– 12 channels total
• 64KB EEPROM for non volatile program storage
• All necessary support for C28343 on controlCARD
– Single 5V supply for full operation
Both the controlCARD and docking station include a hardware developer’s package and a set of soft
collateral files which make copying or deploying this technology very easy. These files include:
• Schematics (source or .PDF files)
• Bill of materials (BOM)
• Gerber files to freely use or modify
• Pin-out table, showing all key signals at the 168-pin connector
• DIMM168 pin / socket mechanical details
• PCB files written in popular Freeware tool for easy modification (Docking Station only)
• Template mother board PCB file created in a popular freeware tool – great way to begin a new
prototype design
This kit contains all the hardware needed to get started except a JTAG emulator (suggested emulators are
listed at the end of this document). Please follow the steps below to set up the hardware:
• Unpack the DIM style controlCARD
• Spread open the winged retaining clips on connector J1
• Sit the DIM card loosely in the connector slot. Make sure to align the two keyed notches and position
the card bottom corners inside the retaining clips (see picture below)
• Pushdown vertically using even pressure from both ends of the card until the clips snap and lock.
(Note: To remove or eject the card simply use your thumbs to spread open the retaining clips)
• Connect the 5V power supply to power jack JP1; ensure that switch 1 (SW1) is in the OFF position
• Depending on your emulator, place the Jumper at J8 to either the 3.3V or 5V position
• Connect the JTAG emulator cable to connector J2
• Once you have downloaded the TI Software or are ready to run your own project, turn on the board's
power.
For full details (schematics, pin-out table, etc.) of the hardware, refer to the Hardware Developer’s
package, DockingStnHWdevPkg.
