Console interfaceEdit

TBD: sostituire le sezioni con le informazioni sull'uso della periferica e del suo connettore Nell'esempio di seguito c'è la descrizione dell'interfaccia UART/console

The Console interface available on the Evaluation Kit at the connector J2.

J2 is a 4 pin (4x1x2.54mm) header connector for the two-wires USART1 port, used for debug purposes (bootloader and operating system serial console).

SignalsEdit

The following table describes the interface signals:

Pin# SOM Pin# Pin name Pin function Pin Notes
1 J18.87 N.A. Transmit line
2 J18.89 RS232_RX Receive line
3 - 3V3_CB Power output This pin can be used to power an RS232 transceiver
4 - DGND Ground

Device mappingEdit

UART3 is mapped to /dev/ttymxc2 device in Linux. The peripheral is used as the default serial console, both for the bootloader and the kernel.

Device usageEdit

To connect to the debug serial port:

  1. connect the UART to USB transceiver to J2 connector
  2. start your favorite terminal emulator software on PC (eg: PuTTY); communication parameters are: 115200,N,8,1
