Introduction

Figure 1-4 shows the E-INK display shield that has the following features:

■ A 2.7 inch monochrome E-INK display with a resolution of 264x176. The E-INK display can retain

its contents even in the absence of power, which provides an ultra low-power, “always-on” display functionality

■ A thermistor that allows temperature-compensation of the display as well as general purpose

temperature measurement.

■ A 3-axis acceleration and 3-axis gyroscopic motion sensor

■ A PDM microphone for voice input

■ An I/O level translator that allows the board to operate at any voltage between 1.8 V and 1.8 V ~

5 V, by providing a constant 3.3 V interface to the E-INK display

■ A load switch that can be controlled by the board to toggle the E-INK display’s power.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 30

Kit Operation

The PSoC 6 BLE Pioneer board has the following peripherals:

1. Battery charging indicator (LED7): This LED turns ON when the onboard battery charger is charging a lithium-iron polymer battery connected to J15. Note that the battery connector and battery are not included in the Kit and should be purchased separately if you have to test the battery charging functionality.

2. USB PD out indicator (LED6): This LED turns ON when the USB Type-C power delivery output is available for use.

3. KitProg2 USB connector (J10): The USB cable provided along with the PSoC 6 BLE Pioneer Kit connects between this USB connector and the PC to use the KitProg2 onboard programmer and debugger and to provide power to the Pioneer board. J10 is also used for the USB Type-C power delivery system. See EZPD CCG3 Type-C Power Delivery on page 38 for more details.

4. Cypress EZ-PD™ CCG3 Type-C Port Controller with PD (CYPD3125-40LQXIT, U3): The Pioneer Board includes a Cypress EZ-PD™ CCG3 USB Type-C Port controller with Power Delivery system. This EZ-PD™ CCG3 device is pre-programmed and can deliver power from a Type-C port to onboard header J16, while simultaneously charging a lithium-ion polymer battery connected to J15. In addition, the power delivery system can deliver power to a Type-C power sink or consumer such as a cell phone with the power derived from the VIN supply. See EZPD CCG3

Type-C Power Delivery on page 38 for more details.

5. KitProg2 programming mode selection button (SW3): This button can be used to switch between various modes of operation of KitProg2 (Proprietary SWD Programming or Mass Storage programming/CMSIS-DAP mode). This button can also be used to provide input to PSoC 5LP in custom application mode. For more details, see the KitProg2 User Guide.

6. KitProg2 I/O header (J6): This header brings out several GPIOs of the onboard KitProg2 PSoC 5LP device. This includes the USB-I2C, USB-UART, and USB-SPI bridge lines. The additional PSoC 5LP pins are direct connections to the internal programmable analog logic of the PSoC 5LP. You can also use these pins for custom applications. For more details on the KitProg2, see the KitProg2 User Guide.

7. KitProg2 programming/custom application header (J7): This header brings out more GPIOs of the PSoC 5LP, which can be used for custom applications. It also contains a 5-pin SWD programming header for the PSoC 5LP.

8. External Power Supply VIN connector (J9): This connector connects an external DC power supply input to the onboard regulators and the USB Type-C power delivery system. The voltage input from the external supply should be between 5 V and 12 V. Moreover, when used as an input to the USB Type-C power delivery system, the external power supply should have enough current capacity to support the load connected via the Type-C port. See EZPD CCG3 Type-C Power

Delivery on page 38 for more details.

9. PSoC 6 MCU user button (SW2):

This button can be used to provide an input to PSoC 6 MCU. Note that by default the button connects the PSoC 6 MCU pin to ground when pressed, so you need to configure the PSoC 6 MCU pin as a digital input with resistive pull-up for detecting the button press. This button also provides a wake-up source from low-power modes of the device. In addition, this button can be used to activate the regulator control output from PSoC 6 MCU.

10.KitProg2 application selection button (SW4): This button can be used to switch between Kit-

Prog2 programming mode and custom application mode. For more details, see the KitProg2 User

Guide.

11. Digilent

Pmod™ compatible I/O header (J14): This header can be used to connect Digilent®

Pmod™ 1 x 6 pin modules.

12. Power LED (LED4): This is the amber LED that indicates the status of power supplied to PSoC

6 MCU.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 31

Kit Operation

13. Kitprog2 status LEDs (LED1, LED2, and LED3): Amber, Red, and Green LEDs (LED1, LED2,

and LED3 respectively) indicate the status of KitProg2. For details on the KitProg2 status, see the KitProg2 User Guide.

14. PSoC 6 MCU reset button (SW1): This button is used to reset PSoC 6 MCU. This button con-

nects the PSoC 6 MCU reset (XRES) pin to ground.

15. PSoC 6 MCU I/O headers (J18, J19, and J20): These headers provide connectivity to PSoC 6

MCU GPIOs that are not connected to the Arduino compatible headers. Majority of these pins are multiplexed with onbroad peripherals and are not connected to PSoC 6 MCU by default. For the detailed information on how to rework the kit to access these pins, see Table 1-2 on page 12.

16. Arduino compatible power header (J1): The Arduino-compatible power header powers Ardu-

ino shields. This header also has a provision to power the kit though the VIN input.

17. PSoC 6 MCU debug and trace header (J12): This header can be connected to an Embedded

Trace Macrocell (ETM) compatible programmer/debugger

18. Arduino Uno R3 compatible I/O headers (J2, J3, and J4): The Arduino-compatible I/O head-

ers bring out pins from PSoC 6 MCU to interface with the Arduino shields. Few of these pins are multiplexed with onboard peripherals and are not connected to PSoC 6 MCU by default. For a detailed information on how to rework the kit to access these pins, see Table 1-2 on page 12

19. PSoC 6 MCU program and debug header (J11): This 10-pin header allows you to program and

debug the PSoC 6 MCU using an external programmer such as MiniProg3. In addition, an external PSoC 4/5/6 device can be connected to this header and programmed using KitProg2. To program the external device, SW6 should be used to select the “External” option.

20. Kitprog2 programming target selection switch (SW6, on the bottom side of the Board):

This switch selects the programming target of the onboard KitProg2 between the onboard PSoC 6 MCU and an external PSoC 4/5/6 device connected to J11.

21. CapSense slider (SLIDER) and buttons (BTN0 and BTN1): CapSense touch-sensing slider

and two buttons, all of which are capable of both self-capacitance (CSD) and mutual-capacitance (CSX) operation, let you evaluate Cypress’ fourth-generation CapSense technology. The slider and the buttons have a 1-mm acrylic overlay for smooth touch sensing.

22. CapSense proximity header (J13): A wire can be connected to this header to evaluate the

proximity sensing feature of CapSense.

23. System Power V

supply voltage between constant 1.8 V, constant 3.3 V, and variable 1.8 to 3.3 V. In the vari-

selection switch (SW5): This switch is used to select the PSoC 6 MCU’s

able 1.8 to 3.3 V mode, the PSoC programmer software can control the voltage via the KitProg2.

24. PSoC 6 MCU current measurement jumper (J8, on the bottom side of the Board): An

ammeter can be connected to this jumper to measure the current consumed by the PSoC 6 MCU.

25. Arduino compatible ICSP header (J5): This header provides an SPI interface for Arduino ICSP

compatible shields.

The Pioneer board includes a Cypress EZ-PD CCG3 power delivery system. This EZ-PD™ CCG3 is pre-programmed and can deliver power from a Type-C port to onboard header J16 (known as the consumer path), while simultaneously charging a 3.7 V, lithium-ion polymer battery connected to J15. In addition, the power delivery system can deliver power to a Type-C peripheral such as a cell phone with the power derived from the VIN (J9) supply (known as the provider path). Note that to use the EZ-PD™ CCG3 Type-C power delivery system, a power delivery capable USB Type-C to Type-C cable should be connected to J10. This cable is not included in the kit, and should be purchased separately.

Figure 3-10. Type-C Block Diagram

Kit Operation

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 38

Kit Operation

The power delivery system works as follows:

1. If the power delivery system detects a non Type-C power adapter (Legacy USB), CCG3 will charge the battery at 100 mA. CCG3 will also disable the consumer and provider paths.

2. On detection of a Type-C power adapter, CCG3 will request 5 V at 3 A, 9 V at 3 A, or 12 V at 3 A depending on the host capability. Once the power level is successfully negotiated, the Consumer path is enabled by turning on load switch U12. This load switch is hardware limited to supply up to 1 A through header J16 to an external device. CCG3 will use the remaining current to charge the battery connected to J15 at a higher charging rate up to 1.5 A and PD output voltage availability indicator (LED6) will be turned ON.

3. CCG3 will also advertise that it can provide 5 V, 9 V, or 12 V if a DC power supply capable of providing either of these voltages is connected at VIN (J9). The current is limited in this case to 1 A. Note that the external supply must be capable of providing this current. If a connected, Type-C device requests power, the provider path is enabled by turning on load switch U22. Table below details the Power delivery scenarios for onboard CCG3.

Cortex®-M4 as the primary application processor, a 100-MHz ARM Cortex®-M0+ that

ARM supports low-power operations, up to 1 MB Flash and 288 KB SRAM, an integrated BLE 4.2 radio, CapSense touch-sensing, and custom analog and digital peripheral functions. The programmable analog and digital peripheral functions allow higher flexibility, in-field tuning of the design, and faster time-to-market.

For more information, see the PSoC 6 MCU web page and the datasheet.

A.2.2 PSoC 5LP (U2)

An onboard PSoC 5LP (CY8C5868LTI-LP039) is used as KitProg2 to program and debug PSoC 6 MCU. The PSoC 5LP connects to the USB port of a PC through a USB connector and to the SWD and other communication interfaces of PSoC 6 MCU. The PSoC 5LP is a true system-level solution providing MCU, memory, analog, and digital peripheral functions in a single chip. The CY8C58LPxx family offers a modern method of signal acquisition, signal processing, and control with high accuracy, high bandwidth, and high flexibility.

A.2.5 Power Supply System

The power supply system on this board is versatile, allowing the input supply to come from the following sources:

■ 5 V, 9 V, or 12 V from the onboard USB Type-C connector

■ 5 V to 12 V power from an Arduino shield or from external power supply through VIN header J9

or J1

■ 3.7 V from a rechargeable Li-Po battery connected to J15

■ 5 V from an external programmer/debugger connected to J11 and J12

The power supply system is designed to support 1.8 V to 3.3 V operation of the PSoC 6 MCU. In addition, an intermediate voltage of 5 V is required for the operation of the power delivery circuitry and KitProg2. Therefore, three regulators are used to achieve 1.8 to 3.3 V and 5 V outputs - a buck boost regulator (U21) that generates a fixed 5 V from an input of 5 to 12 V, and a main regulator (U6) that generates a variable 1.8 V to 3.3 V and a fixed 3.3 V from the output of U21. Figure A-3 shows the schematics of the voltage regulator and power selection circuits. In addition to this, the battery charger U14 also functions as a boost regulator. U14 boosts the battery voltage to provide a 5 V to the main regulator U6. This feature is enabled only when the VIN and the USB supply are unavailable.

The voltage selection is made through switch SW5. In addition, an onboard 330 mF super-capacitor (C52) can be used to power the backup domain power (Vbackup) of PSoC 6 MCU. Switch SW7 selects the Vbackup supply connection of PSoC 6 MCU between V

When V super-capacitor is selected, the regulator ON/OFF terminal is controlled by PSoC 6 MCU. To ensure

proper operation of PSoC 6 MCU, the super-capacitor, when selected, must be charged internally by PSoC 6 MCU before turning OFF the regulator. For more details of the PSoC 6 MCU backup system and power supply, see the PSoC 6 BLE Technical Reference Manual.

A.2.6 Expansion Connectors

A.2.6.1 Arduino-compatible Headers (J1, J2, J3, J4, and J5)

The board has five Arduino-compatible headers: J1, J2, J3, J4, and J5 (J5 is not populated by default). You can connect 3.3 V Arduino-compatible shields to develop applications based on the shield’s hardware. Note that 5 V shields are not supported and connecting a 5 V shield may permanently damage the board. See Appendix A.3 for details on PSoC 6 MCU pin mapping to these headers.

A.2.6.2 PSoC 6 MCU I/O Headers (J18, J19, and J20)

These headers provide connectivity to PSoC 6 MCU GPIOs that are not connected to the Arduino compatible headers. Majority of these pins are multiplexed with onboard peripherals and are not connected to PSoC 6 MCU by default. For the detailed information on how to rework the kit to access these pins, see “PSoC 6 BLE Pioneer Board Reworks” on page 53.

A.2.6.3 PSoC 5LP GPIO Header (J6)

J6 is a 8x2 header provided on the board to bring out several pins of the PSoC 5LP to support advanced features such as a low-speed oscilloscope and a low-speed digital logic analyzer. This header also contains the USB-UART, USB-I2C, and USB-SPI bridge pins that can be used when these pins are not accessible on the Arduino headers because a shield is connected. The additional PSoC 5LP pins are connected directly to the internal programmable analog logic of PSoC 5LP. This header also has GPIOs for custom application usage. J6 is not populated by default. Note that the SPI, RTS, and CTS lines on these headers are directly from PSoC 5LP (before level translator).

Appendix

A.2.6.4 KitProg2 Custom Application Header (J7)

A 5x2 header is provided on the board to bring out more GPIOs of PSoC 5LP for custom application usage. This header also brings out the PSoC 5LP programming pins and can be programmed using

MiniProg3 and 5-pin programming connector. J7 is not populated by default.

A.3.1 Bypassing protection circuit on PSoC 6 MCU Program and Debug Header (J11)

The 10-pin header allows you to program and debug PSoC 6 MCU using an external programmer such as MiniProg3. This header has a protection circuit that cuts-off any voltage greater that 3.4 V on VTARG_REF pin. This is to ensure that PSoC 6 MCU and other 3.3 V devices do not get damaged due to overvoltage.

In case the external programmer provides slightly higher voltage, say 3.42 V, and you need to still use the programmer, you can bypass this protection circuit by populating the bypass zero-ohm resistor R152.

Do note that this change will compromise the protection circuit when an external supply is used and will permanently damage any 3.3 V device if the external voltage exceeds absolute maximum limit of devices. For example, 3.6 V for PSoC 6 MCU device, see the respective device datasheet for absolute maximum voltage limits.

A.3.2 PSoC 6 MCU User Button (SW2)

By default, this button connects the PSoC 6 MCU pin to ground when pressed, and you need to configure the PSoC 6 MCU pin as a digital input with resistive pull-up for detecting the button press. In case you need to sense active HIGH on PSoC 6 MCU pin, resistor R150 should be removed and R149 should be populated. This will connect the button connecting the PSoC 6 MCU pin to V

when pressed. Additionally, there are footprints provided for pull-up and pull-down resistors that can be populated in case external pull-up is required.

The hatched pattern around the CapSense buttons and slider are connected to ground. In case liquid tolerance is required, this pattern needs to be connected to shield pin. This pattern can be connected to either of the two ports P6.3 or P13.6 populated by R138 or R137, respectively. In both cases, resistor R144 connecting the hatched pattern to ground needs to be removed. These pins need to be configured as shield pin in PSoC creator.

Connecting the hatched pattern to shield instead of ground will also reduce parasitic capacitance of the sensors.

A.5 Frequently Asked Questions

1. I don’t have a Type-C connector on my PC. Can I still connect and use this kit?

Yes. To evaluate PSoC 6 MCU features, any PC with USB2.0 connectivity is sufficient. Type-C power adapter is required only to evaluate the CCG3 section of the Kit.

2. How does CY8CKIT-062-BLE handle voltage connection when multiple power sources are plugged in?

There are five different options to power the baseboard; Type-C USB connector (J10), External DC supply via VIN connector (J9/J1), Debug and trace header (J12, VTARG_IN), Program and debug header (J11), and LiPo battery header (J15). Both Type-C and VIN take priority over other supply options. These inputs are ORed using diode and the higher voltage among the two take precedence. Output of ORing diode is given to a buck-boost regulator (U16) that generate a constant 5.2 V. This output is ORed with ETM supply (J12) which is typically 5 V. For most of the practical uses, output from the 5.2 V regulator takes priority and the same is given as an input to Cypress buck regulator (U6). LiPo battery voltage is used when all the above sources are absent. Output of Cypress buck regulator (U6) is ORed with supply voltage from the Program and debug header (J11), and higher voltage takes precedence. See the Power supply scenarios table for more details on voltage input and output scenarios.

3. How can I access Smart I/O and other GPIOs connected to onboard peripherals?

Some of the Smart I/O (Port 8 and Port 9.3) and GPIO connected to onboard peripherals are multiplexed with PSoC 6 MCU I/O headers (J18, J19, and J20). By default, some of these I/Os are connected to onboard peripherals using series resistors. These resistors can be changed to route these I/Os to headers. See Table 1-2 on page 12. Pioneer board Pinout for details on list of resistors that needs to be changed.

4. Why does the Red LED of RGB LED (LED5) light up when switch SW7 is set to SuperCap position?

This behavior is observed if SuperCap is charged below 1.5 V. The I/Os referring to this domain will leak current, in this case P0[3]. VBACKUP feature needs to be enabled in silicon before switching SW7 to SuperCap position. See the TRM/datasheet on options to enable SuperCap charging.

5. What can I use the U.FL connector for and what is the typical mating cycle for these connectors?

U.FL can be used for conductive measurements and to connect external antenna. U.FL connectors are not designed for reconnection. They are rated only for approximately 30 mating cycles.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 57

Appendix

6. What are the three selection switches on baseboard for?

Table 1-1 on page 11 gives details on all three selection switches. Additionally, each code exam-

ple documentation explains the selection switch setting required for each code example.

7. What is the Jumper on board for?

The jumper J8 can be used to measure current of PSoC 6 MCU device without the need to desolder any component from the board. An ammeter can be connected across this jumper to measure the current consumed by the PSoC 6 MCU device. Remove the Jumper on J8, connect an ammeter (+ve terminal of ammeter to Pin 2), and power the kit though USB connector J10.

(overvoltage protection)

9. Why is the voltage of the kit restricted to 3.3 V? Can’t it drive external 5 V interfaces?

PSoC 6 is not meant to be powered for more than 3.6 V. Powering PSoC 6 to more than 3.3 V will damage the chip. You cannot drive IO system with > 3.3 V supply voltages.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 58

Appendix

10. By mistake, I powered my Arduino board while powering PSoC 6 MCU. Is my PSoC 6 chip alive?

Yes. The 3.3 V and 5 V on Arduino power header are not input pins and have protection circuit to prevent the voltage from entering the board. VIN is an input pin and this is routed to the regulator that is capable of taking an absolute maximum of 15 V. P6.V

pin is not protected and care

should be taken not to supply voltage to this pin.

11. What type of battery can I use for this kit?

Recommended lithium-ion polymer rating is 3.7 V @850 mAH or higher. SparkFun Electronics PRT-13854 or equivalent batteries can be used. The LiPo battery charger can charge at 100 mA or 1.5 mA based on whether the USB connection is a legacy device or PD capable.

12. By mistake, I connected the battery with opposite polarity. Did I fry the system?

There are relevant protection circuits to protect the system from permanent damage. Prolonged connection may lead to damage.

13. Can I charge any kind of Type-C device using this kit?

Kit is programmed to advertise the VIN voltage with 1 A current rating. 9 V and 12 V devices are the recommended options. VIN needs to be 9 V and 12 V respectively for this to work.

14. How can I evaluate the USB Type-C provider and consumer features to get started with?

You can use any kind of Type-C laptop, mobile phone, or PD adapters based on the feature that you are trying to evaluate. To use as consumer, note that devices like laptop may be able to provide only 5 V out and may not support 9 V/12 V without a docking station. To use as provider, any 5 V/9 V/12 V device that has a current requirement of less that 1 A may be used. Additionally, Cypress has its own USB Type-C evaluation Kit which can be used to evaluate the provider and consumer features and many more. Visit http://www.cypress.com/products/usb-

type-c-and-power-delivery for details on these kits.

15. Why is the screen of EPD permanently ON?

Electronic paper and e-paper are display devices that mimic the appearance of ordinary ink on paper. Unlike conventional backlit flat panel displays that emit light, electronic paper displays reflect light like paper. This may make it more comfortable to read and provide a wider viewing angle than most light-emitting displays. The contrast ratio in electronic displays available as of 2008 approaches newspaper, and newly developed displays are slightly better. An ideal e-paper display can be read in direct sunlight without the image fading. Many electronic paper technologies hold static text and images indefinitely without electricity. To know the details, see

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_paper.

16. Why does the screen of EPD glitch from black to white during every transition?

The screen of EPD shield refreshes at every transition. It first clears all the cells of the display by spreading it with white pixels and then posts the images.

17. When I touch the resistors near the CapSense slider/button, the E-INK Display Shield and LED

are triggered. Why does this happen?

Those are the series limiting resistors which interface CapSense lines with ICs I/O lines. As you are touching CapSense lines, it triggers E-INK Display Shield which responds to CapSense.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 59

Appendix

18. The EPD shield shows white and black lines after I switched OFF the kit. Is the EPD shield

damaged?

EPD retains the image when you may have powered OFF the kit. In case the kit is powered OFF during transition between images, lines might appear.

19. I am unable to program the target device.

a. Check SW6 to ensure it is in PSoC 6 MCU position.

b. Check SW7 to ensure it is in VDDD/KitProg2 position.

c. Make sure that no external devices are connected to J11.

d. Update your KitProg2 Version in programmer to 1.04 or later using the steps mentioned in

KitProg2 User Guide.

e. Ensure that device used in PSoC Creator is CY8C6347BZI-BLD53

20. Does the kit get powered when I power the kit from another Cypress Kit through the J1 header?

Yes, VIN pin on J1 header is the supply input/output pin and can take up to 12 V.

21. What additional overlays can be used with the CapSense?

Any kind of overlays (up to 5 mm thickness) like wood, acrylic, and glass can be used with this CapSense. Note that additional tuning may be required when the overlay is changed.

22. What is PMOD?

PMOD interface or Peripheral Module interface is an open standard defined by Digilent Inc in the Digilent Pmod Interface Specification for peripherals used with FPGAs or microcontrollers. Several types of modules are available from simple push buttons to more complex modules with network interfaces, analog to digital converters or LCD displays. PMODs are available from multiple vendors such as Diligent, Maxim Integrated, Analog Devices and a variety of hobby sites. This Kit supports only 1 x 6 pin PMOD modules.

23. With what type of shield from Cypress can I use this baseboard?

Any Arduino Uno shield which supports 3.3 V operation is compatible with this Pioneer board. Following cypress shields are pin compatible with this pioneer board:

a. CY3280-MBR3

b. CY8CKIT-022

c. CY8CKIT-024

d. CY8CKIT-026

e. CY8CKIT-040

f. CY8CKIT-046

g. CY8CKIT-048

24. Can I use this Kit as a programmer to program external PSoC devices?

Yes, the onboard KitProg2 can program any PSoC 4/5/6 devices connected to J11 header. Switch SW6 should be switched to “External Device” position to program devices connected via J11 header.

PSoC® 6 BLE Pioneer Kit Guide, Doc. # 002-17040 Rev. *D 60

Appendix

25. Which third-party debuggers does this Kit support?

Multiple third-party IDEs are supported; IAR and µVision are some examples. For more details on all supported devices and procedures to export to these IDEs, see PSoC Creator ‘Help’ menu.

26. Can I power PSoC 6 MCU using only external programmer at 1.8 V through the J11 header?

Yes, but there may be chance of failure as there is a voltage drop across the Overvoltage protection circuit. R152 can be populated to bypass the protection circuit but is not recommended due to the increased risk of damaging PSoC 6 MCU.

27. Can I power and program the PSoC 6 MCU using only MiniProg3 at 3.3 V?

The MiniProg3 Rev *B has an error in target voltage which exceeds the tolerance of the overvoltage protection circuit which can cause failure. However, this will work in MiniProg3 Rev *C which has lesser error in target voltage. R152 can be populated to bypass the protection circuit but is not recommended due to the increased risk of damaging PSoC 6 MCU.

28. Why the on-board RGB LED (LED5) does not work when I select on a supply voltage of 1.8 V

using SW5?

The on board RGB LED requires a supply voltage higher than 2.7 V to function correctly. Ensure that SW5 is set to the 3.3 V or 1.8 V–3.3 V VARIABLE with PSoC Programmer selecting a voltage of 2.7 V or higher in the latter case. Using this kit with voltage lower than 2.7 V will affect the RGB LED operation. Alternatively, you can use discrete LEDs (LED8 and LED9) if the application permits.
