Component
Description
+5V Power In
DC power supply from plug pack (5-V supply may be used as well)
Main Pwr
SW1 - Master power switch for entire EVM
Emulator Power Jumper
Sets the voltage sent to power the emulator. No jumper means no power will be sent to an emulator, a
jumper at “5V” will power the emulator with 5 V, and a jumper at “3V3” will power the emulator with 3.3
V.
JTAG
Connector for external JTAG emulator
CAN
External pins available for connection to two parallel CAN devices
EEPROM
256K SPI-based EEPROM
Hex Encoder
4-bit hex encoder which sets the values of GPIOs 12-15
SCI Boot Pins
Controls how the controlCARD boots
If no jumpers are placed the target boots from flash
If a jumper is placed at “34”, a F2808 controlCARD boots from SCI
If a jumper is placed at “84”, a F28335 controlCARD boots from SCI
Potentiometers
Divide a 3.3-V input into a voltage value to be read by ADC-A0 and ADC-A1
LEDs
LED1 and LED2 controlled by GPIO-09 and GPIO-11
Comms
Serial communications UART (connects to the Quick Start GUI)
IR Receiver
Uses the eCAP module to read signals sent by a IR transmitter. The software included with this kit is
configured to work with the Sharp TV protocol, for the included Philips universal remote this is code
0509.
Headphone-Out
Output from the TI AIC23B codec that is controlled by the F28x MCU (headphones not included in this
package)
Audio-In
Input to the TI AIC23B codec (line-in audio cable not included in this package)
ADC pins
Spare ADC pins available to be connected as desired
DAC output
Output of a filtered ePWM. The ePWM output is connected to a second-order passive filter then
connected to these pins
EPWM to ECAP
Connecting a jumper across these headers allows for an experiment to be done where the eCAP
loopback enable
module reads the duty cycle and period of the ePWM output
