Connecting the ProDK to the host PC
The ProDK Development Kit allows functional verification of the DA1468x family of devices. It
supports connecting external hardware by exporting DA1468x pins to standard headers and enables
the user to do precise power measurements through the integrated power measurements circuitry.
Additionally, the ProDK mainboard includes an embedded J-Link debugger and an FTDI chipset
which allow easy communication with the development host over USB.
The ProDK Development Kit is connected to the host PC over the connector marked as
USB2(DBG)
,
as shown in
using a standard mini-USB cable. Before connecting the ProDK Development
Kit to the host PC, make sure that the mainboard and the desired daughterboard module are properly
connected and that the power switch on the daughterboard is in the VBAT position to select USB
from motherboard.
Additional information on the exact capabilities of each daughterboard can be found in
