www.ti.com Hardware Set Up
All the hardware needed to get started is included in this package. The application specific motherboard
provided in this kit can be used in one of two ways:
1. Test Drive – Using the provided GUI application, you do not need Code Composer Studio™ or
emulation tools. This provides a great way to run or demo the application code quickly and see what
functionality the hardware offers. Note: exactly the same functionality can be achieved by using the
Code Composer Studio Watch Window and slider features during emulation in the second mode.
2. Code Composer Studio Software Development Platform – With the project code provided, the
application can be modified, compiled, loaded and run in a development environment. Code Composer
Studio and Emulation HW tools are required for this.
Follow these steps to set up the hardware for either the GUI or Software Development Platform:
Step 1. Unpack the DIMM style controlCARD.
Step 2. Spread open the winged retaining clips on connector J6.
Step 3. Sit the DIMM card loosely in the connector slot. Make sure to align the 2 keyed notches and
position the card bottom corners inside the retaining clips (see picture below).
Step 4. Push vertically down using even pressure from both ends of the card until the clips snap and
lock. (note: to remove or eject the card, spread open the retaining clips with thumbs).
Step 5. Ensure switch 1 (SW1) is in the off position and connect the included power supply to the
power jack.
1. Plug in the serial cable provided to connector J9 making sure the red wire aligns with the Rx pin on
EVM.
2. Insert a jumper at J1.
3. Plug the DB9 connector into your PC using either a serial port or a serial-to-USB converter dongle.
4. After the TI software download is finished turn on the power to the board, see Software Setup
GUI-TestDrive section.
Step 1. Connect the USB orJTAG emulator cable to connector J1 or J2 respectively (optional).
Step 2. After the TI software download is finished turn on the power to the board, see Software Setup
Code Composer Studio-Development.
Note: For full details (schematics, pin-out table) of the hardware see the Hardware Developer's
Package. See Software Setup for download location.
