About This Document

This document shows how to connect the MPC8349EA MDS processor board and verify its basic operation, in a step by step
format. Settings for switches and jumpers are shown, as well as instructions for connecting peripheral devices. In addition,
instructions for connecting the MPC8349EA MDS processor board to an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), such as
Freescale’s CodeWarrior
version of the board has a faster DDR2 (400MHz), and a flash memory of 32MB.

®

are included, but instructions for working with the IDE are beyond the scope of this document. This

Step 2: Connect plastic spacers

Four sets of plastic spacers screw
into holes located at (approximately)
the four corners of the board.The
spacers raise and stabilize the board.

1. From under the board, insert a
spacer into one of the board's four
spacer holes.

2. Attach a female spacer onto the
male spacer.

3. Repeat for the three remaining pairs
of spacers.

Step 3: Check Switches and Jumpers

The MPC8349EA MDS Processor
Board has two rows of Dual-In-Line
Package (DIP) switches.The default
DIP-switch positions set-up the
