Communication Channels
To enable communication with external tools, devices or Apps on Smart phone, this board features a number of
communication channels.
8.1.
USB
A USB cable from PC needs to be connected to J5 on board. This communication channel through U9 (FT2232H) is
mainly used for programing the SPI flash on board, or program the ICE devices directly depends on settings on jumper
J19.
8.2.
Bluetooth
This board features a Bluetooth module U30 to enable wireless communication with external devices like smart
phones, which is very useful while need to run some APPs on smart phone in demos. This Bluetooth provide UART
channel to communicate with ICE40 devices on board.
The operating range of the BLE module is up to 100 meters.
