EVAL BOARD USER’S MANUAL

Introduction

The IDK baseboard can be connected with different shields
depending on the required IoT application. The IDK baseboard allows
the user to create many types of IoT nodes and/or gateways depending
on which shields are used with the baseboard. The IDK baseboard is
configured by connecting the baseboard with the PC and USB cable
and using accompanying PC software.

Software Installation

Programing/configuring the IDK requires the ON Semiconductor
IDE software. The IDE should be installed on the PC before
connecting the hardware to the PC. The Software Suite can be
downloaded from www.onsemi.com.

Steps for installation of the IDE are mentioned on page 5 of this
Quick Start guide.

Hardware Setup

After the IDE software is installed, hardware can be connected as
shown in Figure 1. A single 12 V, 2 A power supply adapter powers

the evaluation board (e.g. CUI INC, model SMI24−12....12 V/2 A or

any other supporting V
the correct operation of the baseboard and the shields are listed in
subsequent sections in this document. The shield boards plug directly
into the IDK baseboard. The PC connects to the IDK baseboard
through a USB cable.

The shields are classified into two broad categories − PMOD &
Arduino − based on the interface where the shields are connected to
the baseboard. In addition, Arduino-type shields include “Powered”
and “Non-Input Power” shields.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

Powering Up the IDK

The IDK baseboard can be powered up in stand-alone
USB Mode.

Powered shields require additional power supply for its
operation. No-Input power shields (e.g. PMOD-type
shields) draw power from the baseboard itself.

PMOD type shields: ALS, PIR & Touch (does not require
additional power supply).

Arduino powered shields: Stepper Motor & LED Ballast

shields are supplied from external power source.

IDK Powering Modes

The IDK can be powered in 4 different ways:

1. USB: The IDK baseboard can be powered through
USB Mode. Jumper setting: None.

CAUTION: In USB Mode, powered shields like Stepper

motor, LED Ballast, etc. need to be connected
to an external 12 V supply using the cable
assembly provided with the IDK.

2. External 12 V DC power adapter supplied with the
IDK: Wall power adapter can be connected to the
DC jack J11. Jumper settings: J16:ON. J12: OFF
& J15: OFF.

3. External 12 V DC through J11 Connector: 12 V
can be provided from an external DC power
supply through J11 Pin no.2 (+Ve) & J11 Pin

No. 3

(−Ve). Jumper settings: J12: ON. J15: OFF & J16:
OFF.

4. External 9−32 V DC through J11 Connector: 12 V
can be provided from an external DC power
supply through J11 Pin No.2 (+Ve) & J11 Pin
No. 3 (−Ve). Jumper settings: J12: OFF, J15: ON
& J16: OFF.

Jumper Settings

The default jumper settings are highlighted below for the

IDK boards.
