1 Introduction

Other features of the docking station include the following:

  • Onboard xds100v1 USB emulator or the ability to use an external JTAG emulator
  • Can use either 5-V supply of the USB or an external power supply to power the board
  • UART communications through onboard USB-to-UART bridge (once jumper J9 is placed)
  • 5.0-V supply for prototyping area
  • 3.3-V supply for prototyping area
  • All key signals accessible through clearly labeled header pins

DIM100 controlCARDs are small, 100-pin, Dual In Line Memory Module (DIMM) style, vertical, plug-in boards that have all the necessary support circuitry (clock, supply LDO, decoupling, pull-ups, and so on) to provide reliable operation for the C2000 MCU. The board design is robust and meant for operation in noisy electrical environments. TI offers several pin compatible controlCARDs for evaluating the different MCUs available in the C2000 family.

DIM100 controlCARDs include the following features:

  • Small size: 90 mm × 25 mm (3.5" × 1")
  • All key GPIO, ADC, and other important signals routed to gold edge connector fingers
  • Extensive supply pin decoupling with L+C close to pins
  • Clamping diode protection at ADC input pins
  • Anti-aliasing filter (noise filter) at ADC input pins
  • Ground plane

Both the controlCARD and docking station include a Hardware Developer's Package, a set of files that make copying or redeploying this technology very easy (see Section 3).

The Hardware Developer's Package includes the following:

  • Schematics (source or .PDF files)
  • Bill of materials (BOM)
  • Gerber files to freely use or modify
  • Pin-out table showing all key signals on the 100-pin connector
  • DIMM100 pin / socket mechanical details
  • PCB files done in the popular Freeware tool, ExpressPCB, for easy modification (docking station only)
