3.3 Using the controlCARD
In order for the controlCARD to work, the contr
olCARD’s MCU must be powered. This is most
often done by inputting 5V through the HSEC connector via an accompanying baseboard. For
example, if using a Docking Station baseboard
, 5VDC should be input into the Docking Station’s
J1 or J17 and then SW1 will need to be toggled to the appropriate position.
Optionally, the MCU could also be powered via the micro-USB connector on the controlCARD.
Based on the way that the controlCARD will be used, additional hardware settings will be
necessary. See the table below:

and the on-card
xds100v2 emulator

an external emulator

Standalone
(Boot from FLASH or
other boot mode)
A:SW1
(controlCARD)
Position 1: ON (up)
Position 1: OFF (down)
Position 1: OFF (down)
A:J1

Connect a mini USB
cable between A:J1
and your computer.
In CCS, use this target

Code Composer Studio (CCS) is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) used to debug
and develop software for the C2000 series of MCUs. It can be downloaded from the following link:

For users new to
C2000’s F28x7x series of devices and CCS, TI’s Technical Training
Organization provides several workshops (online and in-person) that may be helpful:
