Power Supplies
The RDK-SBC has a wide input range switching-power supply that creates a 5V 1A rail for board
operation. The LM22672 step-down regulator switches at 500KHz with an efficiency of greater
than 90%. Board functions require only about 150 mA with the remaining capability available for
external interfaces such as USB host.
A low drop-out (LDO) regulator (U7) converts the +5V power rail to +3.3V to power digital devices
including the microcontroller and SDRAM.
USB
The LM3S9B92’s full-speed USB controller is configured for Host mode, allowing the SBC to
connect directly to USB Flash sticks and other USB devices.
U9, a fault-protected switch, controls and monitors power to the USB host port. USB_EPEN, the
control signal from the microcontroller, has a pull-down resistor to ensure host-port power remains
off during reset. The power switch will immediately cut power if the attached USB device draws
more than 1 Amp, or if the switches’ thermal limits are exceeded by a device drawing more than
500mA. USB_PFLT indicates the over-current status back to the microcontroller.
Ethernet
With its fully integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY, the LM3S9B92 requires only a standard
Jack with integrated magnetics and a few passive components. The TX and RX signals are routed
to the jack as a differential pair. The PHY incorporates MDI/MDI-X cross-over, so the function of
the TX and RX pairs can be swapped in software.
The Ethernet jack incorporates two status LEDs that can be controlled directly by the Ethernet
PHY or by those same pins in GPIO mode.
Color QVGA LCD Touch Panel
The IDM-SBC features a TFT Liquid Crystal graphics panel with 320 x 240 pixel resolution. The
face of the panel is protected during shipping by a thin, protective plastic film which should be
removed before use.
The panel should be laid on a flat surface during evaluation, to protect it from damage and
maximize the sensitivity of the touch screen.
