LAUNCHXL-F28069M Overview
Figure 2. USB Serial Port
NOTE:
If the USB Serial COM Port is not identified by the computer, reprogram the XDS100v2
EEPROM using
Remember this number for when you open a serial terminal. The demo applications UART data was
written and debugged using PuTTY, and for the best user experience we recommend you use PuTTY to
view the UART data. PuTTY can be downloaded from the following URL:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
Open your serial terminal program and open the COM port you found previously in device manager with
the following settings: 115200 Baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. After opening the serial port in your
serial terminal, reset the Launchpad with the reset push button and observe the serial terminal for a
surprise.

Program and Debug the Temperature Measurement Demo Application
The project and associated source code for the C2000 Piccolo LaunchPad demo is included in the
controlSUITE software package and should automatically be found by the TI Resource Explorer in Code
Composer Studio v6. In the resource explorer, open the controlSUITE folder and then the Development
Tools entry and look for the C2000 LaunchPad line item. Expand this item and LAUNCHXL-F28069M,
then select the LaunchPad Demo Application. Follow the steps in the main pane of the resource explorer
to import, build, debug, and run this application.

Hardware Configuration
The F28069M LaunchPad gives users several options as to how to configure the board.
5.1
Power Domain
The F28069M LaunchPad has several different power domains to enable JTAG isolation. Jumpers JP1,
JP2, JP3, JP4, and JP5 configure where power is passed.
Jumper
Power Domain
JP1
Enable 3.3 V from USB (disables isolation)
JP2
Enable GND from USB (disables isolation)
JP3
Enable 5 V switcher (powered off 3.3 V supply of target device)
JP4
Connects target MCU 3.3 V to second set of BoosterPack
headers
JP5
Connects target MCU 5 V to second set of BoosterPack headers
