The baseboard configuration is used for to interface the controlSOM directly to a compatible baseboard or docking station. Power is provided to the controlSOM through the baseboard. An emulation debug-probe such as the XDS110ISO-EVM is required to provide debug connectivity to the MCU. The XDS110 debug-probe and baseboard are sold separately.
In this configuration, Code Composer Studio™ Theia connects to the
controlSOM via JTAG and enables software development. The XDS110 debug-probe also enumerates
a virtual COM port (VCP) for communication with the MCU via UART.
Follow the steps in the baseboard user guide to enable this configuration.
- The following equipment is required:
- F29H85x controlSOM (F29H85X-SOM-EVM)
- C2000/Sitara controlSOM compatible
base board
- XDS110 isolated debug probe (XDS110ISO-EVM)
- 1 USB Type-C cable
- Verify the switch settings are correct on
each EVM.
- F29H85X-SOM-EVM:
- Use S1 to select the desired boot
mode.
- Use S3/S4 to select the desired
ADC voltage reference mode.
- XDS110ISO-EVM:
- S1 selects JTAG mode – set to
JTAG mode.
- S2 enables UART/SPI connection –
set to ON mode.
- Set up the base board per its user guide
instructions.
- Attach the F29H85x ControlSOM to the base
board.
- Ensure the controlSOM is correctly
oriented. The J1 header on the controlSOM should connect with the J1 header on the base
board.
- Connect the XDS110ISO-EVM into
the XDS Debug Header (J4) of the controlSOM.
- Connect the USB cable into connector J5
on the XDS110 isolated debug probe. The XDS110 isolated probe and the controlSOM are
powered on.
- Provide power to the base board per its
user guide instructions.
- Verify the power status LEDs (LED1 and
LED2) on the controlSOM are turned on.
- The controlSOM is ready for use. Follow
the steps in Software to get started developing software.
