CONNECTING THE
MICROCONTROLLER BOARD AND THE EVAL-
ADPD188BIZ-SK EVALUATION BOARD
Connect the USB cable to the
evaluation board,
connect the ribbon cable to the EVAL-ADPD188BIZ-SK board,
and switch the power switch to the
ON
position (see Figure 3).
When the USB cable is connected, the second light emitting
diode (LED) below the power switch illuminates, indicating that
the on-board battery is being charged. When the power switch
is turned to the
ON
position, the LED immediately below the
power switch illuminates, indicating that the
microcontroller board is on.

, as shown in
Figure 4. In this case, the proper COM port selection is
USB Serial
Port (COM16)
.
The EVAL-ADPDUCZ microcontroller board uses an FT232 USB
universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) IC. If the
USB driver installation does not install properly, refer to the
corresponding FTDI driver installation guide that is compatible
