The PoE pass-through connector, P5, mates with the P20 header on the development board. This PoE pass-through feature passes P oE power connections from the Ethernet signal cable to the user’s equipment through P5. The P oE feature provides a power source for compliant “powered” equipment, and is nominally 48VDC with a possible 30–57VDC 13 W maximum range.

By default, the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C modules use the CR1 and CR2 LEDs as described:

 ConnectCore Wi-9C module: To indicate WLAN-related information, such as

association status and network activity.

 ConnectCore 9C and Wi-9C modules: CR1 will flash a repeating blink pattern

in a major system failure; for example, a processor exception or Power on Self Test failure.

The ConnectCore Wi-9C LED assignments can be reassigned; that is, you can use different GPIOs to drive CR1/CR2 LEDs.

The JTAG connector on the module is keyed, as are the two connectors on the JTAG adapter, which means there is only one way to attach ribbon cables to the module and JTAG adapter. For details, see “JTAG adapter assembly” on page 16.

Use the JT AG adapter assembly, shipped with the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C Jump Start Kit, to attach your debugger to the module. The JTAG adapter assembly consists of the Digi JTAG Link USB debugger with a ribbon cable attached and the JTAG adapter with a ribbon cable attached. The Jump Start Kit also includes a USB cable.

The two connectors on the JTAG adapter are keyed, as is the JTAG connector header (P2) on the module. Keyed connectors eliminate cable attachment errors by ensuring that there is only one way to mate the connectors.

JTAG adapter The JTAG adapter has two 20-pin connectors, P1 and P2.

 P1 is a keyed male connector into which you attach the debugger’s ribbon

cable.

 P2 is a keyed male connector into which you attach the ribbon cable that plugs

into the module.

 J1 is a jumper that determines the mode in which the module operates: debug

or boundary scan. Depending on the JTAG adaptor you are using, J1 has either two pins or three pins.

This drawing shows the JTAG adapter with a 2pin J1 header.

For debug mode — Do not plug a jumper onto J1. For boundary scan mode — Plug a jumper onto

J1.

where xx is the length of the header pins; you choose the connector that best fits your application. P3 is a four-column, 144-signal, through-hole signal rail that provides 1:1 access to all module signals. You can solder every 2.54mm through-hole header. The size of the P3 connector is 4x36 pins (see the drawing following the next paragraph) — note, however, that you can solder only a smaller header onto the connector. If you want to solder a complete header over the through-hole signal rail, use 2 headers of 2x36 pins each.

The signal assignments for P3 are the same as those for the edge connector, P3, on the module; see "Pin assignment by SO-DIMM pin number," beginning on page 19, for detail.

LCD and USB Configuration

CHAPTER 4

This chapter addresses module specifics pertaining to the LCD and USB

interfaces. See the application note “LCD Displays Supported by the NetSilicon NS9750/NS9360

Processors” (available on http://www.digiembedded.com) for additional information about the application-specific configuration and capabilities of the LCD controller on the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C module.

There are seven categories of LCD displays, all of which the module supports:

 Color TFT (thin film transistor, also called active matrix (AM)):

Control and data pins

– 18-bit

 Six types of STN (super twisted nematic, also called passive matrix (PM)):

– Three single panel displays – Three dual panel displays

Each STN display is either color or monochrome:

– Color display: Up to 8-pin using color-enhancing palette RAM – Monochrome display: Up to 8-pin or 4-pin using grayscale-enhancing palette

RAM

The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C LCD interface has six control pins. The number of data pins depends on the display type. Displays typically require 4–6 control pins. The next two tables list the control pins and the data pins, respectively.

LCD AND USB CONFIGURATION

Sample applications

Sample displays ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C uses an internal programmable palette-LUT and a grayscaler

to support different color-processing techniques; three sample displays are provided here:

 18-pin TFT display (for example, the SHARP LQ10D421). Accepts 18 color RGB

bits (6 bits per color) at a time. Only 16 bits are transferred from SDRAM: five bits each for the three colors — R (red), G (green), and B (blue) — and a single LSB (least significant bit) that is split into three equal values between R, G,

and B. This produces close to 2

 8-pin STN color display (for example, the SHARP LM057QC1T01). Shifts eight

, or 64 thousand colors.

color bits at a time: RGBRGBRG bits followed by BRGBRGBR bits followed by GBRGBRGB, and so on. This produces color enhancing in 3375 color grades.

 4-pin STN monochrome display (for example, the Grand Pacific

Optoelectronics GM0008-13). Shifts four monochrome bits at a time, resulting in 15 gray shades (2

– 1).

. . . . .

Resolution The LCD resolution is programmable. These standard displays, with the following

resolutions, are supported:

 QVGA = 320 x 240  VGA = 640 x 480

Lower resolution displays also are supported. Displays typically have programmable vertical resolutions within a certain range, especially if they are used for TV displays (to accommodate different television standards).

Refresh frequency The LCD refresh frequency is programmable. Lower refresh frequency drains less

power, but might flicker. TFT displays usually flicker less than STN displays, as they have a transistor switch behind each pixel on the screen an d can hold the capacitive charge longer.

Sample applications

The LCD interface uses memory as a video buffer. The display resolution is determined by the product of three parameters: number of data bits x display resolution x refresh frequency. This product cannot exceed the system bus bandwidth allocated to the display.

Be aware that the actual bandwidth used by the display is:

display clock rate x number of bits per clock

For example, a clock rate of 50MHz with 16 bits of color yields a bandwidth of 100 MBps. To minimize bandwidth requirements, you might need to use an external oscillator to get the exact rate.

www.digiembedded.com 61

LCD AND USB CONFIGURATION

Sample applications

The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C development board has a 48MHz external oscillator and resulting LCD clock of 24MHz. 16 bits of color requires 48 MBps for the display.

Default LCD controller

The default LCD controller configuration supported by the NS9360 is 640 x 480, with 8 bits for color. The bandwidth is guaranteed; the designer does not need to be concerned with bandwidth use. Higher resoluti ons are possible but require care in their setup and design.

Formula The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C module operates at 155 MHz system bus speed. This

speed grade results in 310 MBps bus bandwidth, as the bus is 4 bytes wide. For bandwidth planning, this maximum bandwidth must be reduced to account for overhead and read/write switching. The effective bandwidth is 1/2 of the system bandwidth; that is, 155 MBps. This value is predicted as the worst case for the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C. The architecture allocates half of the system bandwidth to the module. The remaining four bus master peripherals (Ethernet TX, Ethernet RX, peripheral bus bridge, and LCD controller) share the other half of the bandwidth. The bandwidth assignment of these peripherals is programmable.

Use this formula to estimate the amount of bandwidth available for your LCD display:

CPU bandwidth = 77.5 MBps

All other peripherals (including LCD) = 77.5 MBps

Example 1: 18-bit VGA

Supported TFT displays

The 18-bit TFT display transfers 16 bits per pixel and generates the last two bits inside the LCD controller. This display packs two-color RGB pixels into a single 4byte word.

The 18-bit VGA display (640 x 480), refreshing 60 times per second, requir es 37 MBps:

2 x 640 x 480 x 60 = 37 MBps

40.5 MBps are left to all other peripherals. If the LCD refresh frequency increases to 70 Hz, the required bandwidth increases to 43 MBps.

USB Host The USB Host consists of a USB Host controller that conforms to the Open Host

Controller Interface (OHCI) specification and a wrapper to interface the module to the rest of the system. The USB Host interfaces to the internal USB PHY provided by the NS9360, and is connected to an optional hub on the module.)

USB Device The USB Device module provides a USB 2.0-compliant interface for both full-speed

(12Mbps) and low-speed (1.5 Mbps) operation. The module supports one bidirectional endpoint and up to 10 unidirection al endpoints that can be individu ally programmed for endpoint type (interrupt, bulk, or isochronous) and direction. Each endpoint is assigned to a DMA channel in a multi-channel BBus DMA controller. The USB Device module interfaces to either the internal NS9360 USB PHY or an externa l USB PHY using GPIO.

Support Both USB Host and Device can be supported at the same time:

 USB Device, in this case, must use the only the signals shown in the table in the

section "USB Device only," beginning on page 69.

 USB Host can be on the module or external to the module. If USB Host is

specifically designed for wet locations.

 Use caution when installing or modifying Ethernet lines.  Use a screwdriver and other tools with insulated handles.  You and those around you should wear safety glasses or goggles.  Do not place Ethernet wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet or junction

box containing electrical wiring.

 Installation of inside wiring may bring you close to electrical wire, conduit,

terminals and other electrical facilities. Extre me caution must be used to avoid electrical shock from such facilities. You must avoid contact with all such facilities.

Safety statements

 Ethernet wiring must be at least 6 feet from bare power wiring or lightning

rods and associated wires, and at least 6 inches from other wire (antenna wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers to neon signs), steam or hot water pipes, and heating ducts.

 Do not place an Ethernet connection where it would allow a person to use an

Ethernet device while in a bathtub, shower, swimming pool, or similar hazardous location.

 Protectors and grounding wire placed by the service provider must not be

connected to, removed, or modified by the customer.

 Do not touch uninsulated Ethernet wiring if lightning is likely!  Do not touch or move the antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving.  Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very

close to or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.

 Do not operate a portable transmitter near unshielded blasting caps or in an

explosive environment unless it is a type especially qualified for such use.
