Emulator Connection – Isolation Jumper Block
The isolation jumper block at Jumper J13 allows the user to connect/disconnect signals that cross from
the eZ-FET domain into the FR5969 target domain. This includes eZ-FET Spy-Bi-Wire signals, application
UART signals, and 3V3 and 5V power (see
Reasons to open these connections:
•
To remove any and all influence from the eZ-FET emulator for high accuracy target power
measurements
•
To control 3-V and 5-V power flow between eZ-FET and target domains
•
To expose the target MCU pins for other use than onboard debugging and application UART
communication
•
To expose programming and UART interface of the eZ-FET so it can be used for devices other than
the onboard MCU.

ready to receive data from the host PC. The arrows indicate the direction of the signal.
Backchannel UART: Clear-To-Send, for hardware flow control. The host PC (through the emulator) uses this to

indicate whether or not it is ready to receive data. The arrows indicate the direction of the signal.
Backchannel UART: the target FR5969 receives data through this signal. The arrows indicate the direction of the

signal.
Backchannel UART: the target FR5969 sends data through this signal. The arrows indicate the direction of the

RST
Spy-Bi-Wire emulation: SBWTDIO data signal. This pin also functions as the RST signal (active low)
TST
Spy-Bi-Wire emulation: SBWTCK clock signal. This pin also functions as the TST signal
