User LED
A user LED (LED3) is provided for general use. The LED is connected to
PC5/CCP1
, allowing the
option of either GPIO or PWM control (brightness control). Refer to the Quickstart Application
source code for an example of PWM control.
Bypassing Peripherals
Excluding Ethernet, the EVB’s on-board peripheral circuits require 16 GPIO lines. Two additional
GPIO lines are assigned to Ethernet LEDs. This leaves 20 GPIO lines and 4 ADC channels
immediately available for connection to external circuits. If an application requires more GPIO
lines, the on-board hardware can be disconnected. The EVB is populated with 16 jumper links,
which can be cut with a knife to isolate on-board hardware. The process can be reversed by
installing 0603- 0-ohm chip resistors.
Important: The quickstart application will not run if one or more jumpers are removed.
Interfacing to the EVB
An array of accessible I/O signals makes it easy to interface the EVB to external circuits. All
LM3S6965 I/O lines (except those with both JTAG and SWD functions) are brought out to 0.1”
pitch pads. For quick reference, silk-screened labels on the PCB show primary pin functions.
Table B-1 on page 25 has a complete list of I/O signals as well as recommended connectors.
