Preface

As a member of PHYTEC's new phyCARD product family the phyCARD-M is one of a series of PHYTEC Single Board Computers (SBCs) that can be populated with different controllers and, hence, offers various functions and configurations. PHYTEC supports a variety of 8-/16- and 32-bit controllers in two ways:

(1) as the basis for Rapid Development Kits which serve as a

reference and evaluation platform

(2) as insert-ready, fully functional phyCARD OEM modules,

which can be embedded directly into the user’s peripheral hardware design.

Implementation of an OEM-able SBC subassembly as the "core" of your embedded design allows you to focus on hardware peripherals and firmware without expending resources to "re-invent" microcontroller circuitry. Furthermore, much of the value of the phyCARD module lies in its layout and test.

PHYTEC's new phyCARD product family consists of a series of extremely compact embedded control engines featuring various processing performance classes while using the newly developed XArc embedded bus standard. The standardized connector footprint and pin assignment of the X-Arc bus makes this new SBC generation extremely scalable and flexible. This also allows to use the same carrier board to create different applications depending on the required processing power. With this new SBC concept it is possible to design entire embedded product families around vastly different processor performances while optimizing overall system cost. In addition, future advances in processor technology are already considered with this new embedded bus standard making product upgrades very easy. Another major advantage is the forgone risk of potential system hardware redesign steps caused by processor or other critical component discontinuation. Just use one of PHYTEC's other phyCARD SBCs

Introduction

1 Introduction

The phyCARD-M belongs to PHYTEC’s phyCARD Single Board Computer module family. The phyCARD SBCs represent the continuous development of PHYTEC Single Board Computer technology. Like its mini-, micro- and nanoMODUL predecessors, the phyCARD boards integrate all core elements of a microcontroller system on a subminiature board and are designed in a manner that ensures their easy expansion and embedding in peripheral hardware developments.

PHYTEC's phyCARD family introduces the newly developed X-Arc embedded bus standard. Apart from processor performance, a large number of embedded solutions require a corresponding number of standard interfaces. Among these process interfaces are for example Ethernet, USB, UART, SPI, I

C, audio, display and camera connectivity. The X-Arc bus exactly meets this requirement. As well the location of the commonly used interfaces as the mechanical specifications are clearly defined. All interface signals of PHYTEC's new X-Arc bus are available on a single, 100-pin, high-density pitch (0.635 mm) connector, allowing the phyCARDs to be plugged like a "big chip" into a target application. The reduced complexity of the phyCARD SBC as well as the smaller number of interface signals greatly simplifies the SBC carrier board design helping you to reduce your time-to-market.

As independent research indicates that approximately 70 % of all EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) problems stem from insufficient supply voltage grounding of electronic components in high frequency environments approximately 20 % of all pin header connectors on the X-Arc bus are dedicated to Ground. This improves EMI and EMC characteristics and makes it easier to design complex applications meeting EMI and EMC guidelines using phyCARD boards even in high noise environments.

phyCARD boards achieve their small size through modern SMD technology and multi-layer design. In accordance with the complexity of the module, 0402-packaged SMD components and laser-drilled microvias are used on the boards, providing phyCARD users with access to this cutting edge miniaturization technology for integration into their own design.

The phyCARD-M is a subminiature (60 x 60 mm) insert-ready Single Board Computer populated with the Freescale i.MX35 microcontroller. Its universal design enables its insertion in a wide range of embedded applications.

Precise specifications for the controller populating the board can be found in the applicable controller Reference Manual or datasheet. The descriptions in this manual are based on the Freescale i.MX35. No description of compatible microcontroller derivative functions is included, as such functions are not relevant for the basic functioning of the phyCARD-M.

Introduction

1.3 Minimum Requirements to Operate the phyCARD-M

Basic operation of the phyCARD-M only requires supply of a +3V3 input voltage with 600 mA load and the corresponding GND connection.

These supply pins are located at the phyCARD-Connector X2:

VDD_3V3_IN: X2 1A, 2A, 3A, 1B, 2B, 3B

Connect all +3.3V VCC input pins to your power supply and at least the matching number of GND pins.

Corresponding GND: X2 4A, 8A, 13A, 4B, 8B, 13B

Please refer to section 2 for information on additional GND Pins located at the phyCARD-Connector X2

Caution:

We recommend connecting all available +3V3 input pins to the power supply system on a custom carrier board housing the phyCARD-M and at least the matching number of GND pins neighboring the +3V3 pins.

In addition, proper implementation of the phyCARD-M module into a target application also requires connecting all GND pins neighboring signals that are being used in the application circuitry.

Please refer to section 4 for more information.

2 Pin Description

Please note that all module connections are not to exceed their expressed maximum voltage or current. Maximum signal input values are indicated in the corresponding controller manuals/data sheets. As damage from improper connections varies according to use and application, it is the user's responsibility to take appropriate safety measures to ensure that the module connections are protected from overloading through connected peripherals.

As Figure 4 indicates, all X-Arc bus signals extend to one surface mount technology (SMT) connector (0.635 mm) lining on side of the module (referred to as phyCARD-Connector). This allows the phyCARD-M to be plugged into any target application like a "big chip".

The numbering scheme for the phyCARD-Connector is based on a two dimensional matrix in which column positions are identified by a letter and row position by a number. Pin 1A, for example, is always located in the upper left hand corner of the matrix. The pin numbering values increase moving down on the board. Lettering of the pin connector rows progresses alphabetically from left to right (refer to Figure 4).

The numbered matrix can be aligned with the phyCARD-M (viewed from above; phyCARD-Connector pointing down) or with the socket of the corresponding phyCARD Carrier Board/user target circuitry. The upper left-hand corner of the numbered matrix (pin 1A) is thus covered with the corner of the phyCARD-M marked with a triangle. The numbering scheme is always in relation to the PCB as viewed from above, even if all connector contacts extend to the bottom of the module.

The numbering scheme is thus consistent for both the module’s phyCARD-Connector as well as the mating connector on the

phyBASE Carrier Board or target hardware, thereby considerably reducing the risk of pin identification errors.

Since the pins are exactly defined according to the numbered matrix previously described, the phyCARD-Connector is usually assigned a single designator for its position (X1 for example). In this manner the phyCARD-Connector comprises a single, logical unit regardless of the fact that it could consist of more than one physical socketed connector.

The following figure illustrates the numbered matrix system. It shows a phyCARD-M with SMT phyCARD-Connectors on its underside (defined as dotted lines) mounted on a Carrier Board. In order to facilitate understanding of the pin assignment scheme, the diagram presents a cross-view of the phyCARD-module showing these phyCARD-Connectors mounted on the underside of the module’s PCB.

Table 2 shows the Pin-out of the X-Arc bus with the functional grouping of the signals, while Table 3 provides an overview of the Pin-out of the phyCARD-Connector with signal names and descriptions specific to the phyCARD-M. It also provides the appropriate signal level interface voltages listed in the SL (Signal Level) column and the signal direction.

The Freescale i.MX35 is a multi-voltage operated microcontroller and as such special attention should be paid to the interface voltage levels to avoid unintentional damage to the microcontroller and other onboard components. Please refer to the Freescale i.MX35 Reference Manual for details on the functions and features of controller signals and port pins.

phyCARD-M [PCA-A-M1-xxx]

3 Jumpers

For configuration purposes, the phyCARD-M has 25 solder jumpers, some of which have been installed prior to delivery. Figure 5 illustrates the numbering of the solder jumper pads, while Figure 6 and Figure 7 indicate the location of the solder jumpers on the board. 12 solder jumpers are located on the top side of the module (opposite side of connectors) and 12 solder jumpers are located on the bottom side of the module (connector side). Table 4 below provides a functional summary of the solder jumpers which can be changed to adapt the phyCARD-M to your needs. It shows their default positions, and possible alternative positions and functions. A detailed description of each solder jumper can be found in the applicable chapter listed in the table.

Note:

Jumpers not listed should not be changed as they are installed with regard to the configuration of the phyCARD-M.

Figure 5: Typical jumper pad numbering scheme

e.g.: e.g.:

If manual jumper modification is required please ensure that the board as well as surrounding components and sockets remain undamaged while de-soldering. Overheating the board can cause the solder pads to loosen, rendering the module inoperable. Carefully heat neighboring connections in pairs. After a few alternations, components can be removed with the solder-iron tip. Alternatively, a hot air gun can be used to heat and loosen the bonds.

Power

4 Power

The phyCARD-M operates off of a single power supply voltage.

The following sections of this chapter discuss the primary power pins on the phyCARD-Connector X2 in detail.

4.1 Primary System Power (VCC_3V3)

The phyCARD-M operates off of a primary voltage supply with a nominal value of +3.3V. On-board switching regulators generate the

1.375V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.775V, and 3.3V voltage supplies required by the i.MX35 MCU and on-board components from the primary 3.3V supplied to the SBC.

For proper operation the phyCARD-M must be supplied with a voltage source of 3.3V ±5 % with 600 mA load at the VCC pins on the phyCARD-Connector X2.

VDD_3V3_IN: X2 1A, 2A, 3A, 1B, 2B, 3B

Connect all +3.3V VCC input pins to your power supply and at least the matching number of GND pins.

Corresponding GND: X2 4A, 8A, 13A, 4B, 8B, 13B

Please refer to section 2 for information on additional GND Pins located at the phyCARD-Connector X2.

Caution:

As a general design rule we recommend connecting all GND pins neighboring signals which are being used in the application circuitry. For maximum EMI performance all GND pins should be connected to a solid ground plane.

28 © PHYTEC Messtechnik GmbH 2010 L-750e_1

4.2 Standby Voltage (VBAT)

For applications requiring a standby mode a secondary voltage source of 3.3V can be attached to the phyCARD-M at pin X2B6. This voltage source is supplying the core and on-chip peripherals of the i.MX35 (e.g. EMI, PLL, etc.), as well as the SDRAM and the EEPROM at U6 while the primary system power (VCC_3V3) is removed. Applications not requiring a standby mode can connect the VBAT pin to the primary system power supply (VCC = 3.3V), or can leave it open.

4.3 On-board Voltage Regulator (U1)

The phyCARD-M provides an on-board switching regulator (U1) to source the five different voltages (1.375V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.775V, and

3.3V) required by the processor and on-board components. Figure 8 presents a graphical depiction of the powering scheme.

The switching regulator has two input voltage rails as can be seen in Figure 8. 3V3 and 3V3 Backup. 3V3 is supplied only from the primary voltage input pins VDD_3V3_IN of the phyCARD-M, whereas 3V3 Backup is supplied from the primary voltage input pins VDD_3V3_IN and the secondary voltage input pin VBAT. The following list summarizes the relation between the different voltage rails and the devices on the phyCARD-M:

• VBAT: 3V3 BACKUP Voltage Regulator

4.4 Supply Voltage for external Logic

The voltage level of the phyCARD's logic circuitry is VDD_3V3 (3.3V) and equals the supply voltage of the phyCARD-M. Thus connecting external devices to the phyCARD-M does not require any special precautions. This means that external devices could be supplied from the same power source as the phyCARD-M. Nonetheless we recommend to supply external devices with the voltage (VCC_Logic) brought out at pins X2A5 and X2B5 of the phyCARD-Connector and to use level shifters supplied with this voltage at one of the supply rails if you want to keep your application compatible to other phyCARDs with a different signal level. This means that use of level shifters supplied with VCC_Logic allows converting the signals according to the needs on the custom target hardware independently from the phyCARD mounted. Alternatively signals can be connected to an open drain circuitry with a pull-up resistor attached to VCC_Logic.

Page 39

Power Management

5 Power Management

The phyCARD-M was designed to support applications requiring a power management. Three pins of the X-Arc bus are designated for this purpose. nPower_off and nSuspend_to_RAM are output pins which can be used to indicate the power status of the phyCARD-M, whereas X_WAKEUP is an input pin to apply a wake up signal to the phyCARD-M.

All three pins lead to GPIOs of the i.MX. Thus their functionality can be programmed to your needs. In addition the X_WKUP input is connected to the PWRON2 input of the voltage regulator to allow implementing a power management by programming the power management IC.

The following table shows the location of the power management pins on the phyCARD-Connector and the corresponding GPIOs of the i.MX35.

Please refer to the chapter "Power Management" in the phyCARD Design-In Guide for more information about the implementation of the power management into your design.

Caution:

According to the specification for the phyCARD family writing custom software to utilize pins nPower_off and nSuspend_to_RAM requires them to be configured as Open Collector Output.

Use of the power management features of the PMIC at U1 allows for a higher granularity in control of the power consumption. To implement power management with the PMIC it can be programmed via an I

interface. The MC13892 can be accessed at I

C address 0x10 / 0x11 (write/read). Please refer to the MC13892 User's Guide for more information.

As a third option jumpers J2 and J9 allow to switch off devices on the phyCARD-M, if VBAT is the only supply voltage.

6 System Configuration and Booting

Although most features of the i.MX35 microcontroller are configured and/or programmed during the initialization routine, other features, which impact program execution, must be configured prior to initialization.

The system start-up configuration includes:

• Boot device select configuration (boot type)

• Memory configuration

• USB PHY configuration, etc.

The i.MX35 processor always begins fetching instruction from the internal bootstrap ROM, sync flash or CS0 space. The operational system boot mode of the i.MX35 processor is determined by the configuration of the two external input pins, BMOD[1:0] during the reset cycle. The settings of these pins control where the system is boot from. They are accessible via boot pins X_BOOT[1:0] (X2B50 and X2A50) of the X-Arc bus. These boot modes information are registered during the system reset.

The following table shows the different boot modes, which can be selected by configuring the two boot pins.

Note:

To conform to the phyCARD specification, BMOD0 is the inverse of the input level of X_BOOT0.

Because of pull-up resistors located on the phyCARD-M the default boot mode is External Boot which allows to boot from NAND Flash, if the boot pins X_BOOT[1:0] are left open. In other words, to boot from NAND Flash no further settings at X_BOOT[1:0] are necessary.

To enter other boot modes a low level must be applied to X_BOOT[0] (X2A50) and/or X_BOOT[1] (X2B50) according to Table 8.

Additional boot configuration settings are obtained either from programmable

eFuses or by contacts sampled at POR. On the phyCARD-M the boot configuration is set up by 10k pull-up/ pull-down resistors which are tied to the corresponding CSI-Signals. Table 9 lists the additional configuration settings and the default values.

7 System Memory

The phyCARD-M provides three types of on-board memory:

• DDR2-SDRAM: 64MByte (up to 256MByte)

• NAND Flash: 128MByte (up to 1G Byte)

• I²C-EEPROM: 4KB (up to 32KByte)

The following sections of this chapter detail each memory type used on the phyCARD-M.

7.1 DDR2-SDRAM (U8 - U11)

The RAM memory of the phyCARD-M in comprised of up to four 16bit wide DDR2-SDRAM chips at U8 - U11. They are connected to the special SDRAM interface of the i.MX35 processor, configured for 32bit access, and operating at the maximum frequency of 133MHz.

The phyCARD-M can use one, or both of the DDR2-SDRAM banks on the i.MX35 depending on the SDRAM population density options.

Each RAM bank is comprised of two 16-bit wide DDR2-SDRAM chips, configured for 32-bit access, and operating at 133MHz. In lower density configurations, U9 and U11 populate the module and are accessed via SDRAM memory bank 0 using chip select signal /CSD0 starting at 0x8000 0000. In higher density configurations, U8 and U10 are also populated and are accessed via SDRAM memory bank 1 using chip select signal /CSD1 starting at 0x9000 0000.

Typically the DDR2-SDRAM initialization is performed by a boot loader or operating system following a power-on reset and must not be changed at a later point by any application code. When writing custom code independent of an operating system or boot loader, SDRAM must be initialized by accessing the appropriate SDRAM configuration registers on the i.MX35 controller. Refer to the i.MX35 Reference Manual for accessing and configuring these registers.

Page 47

System Memory

7.2 NAND Flash Memory (U13)

Use of Flash as non-volatile memory on the phyCARD-M provides an easily reprogrammable means of code storage. The following Flash devices can be used on the phyCARD-M:

Manufacturer NAND Flash P/N Density

(MByte)

Samsung K9F1G08UOC 128

Table 10: Compatible NAND Flash devices

Additionally, any parts that are footprint (48-TSOP) and functionally compatible with the NAND Flash devices listed above may also be used with the phyCARD-M.

These Flash devices are programmable with 3.3 V. No dedicated programming voltage is required.

As of the printing of this manual these NAND Flash devices generally have a life expectancy of at least 100,000 erase/program cycles and a data retention rate of 10 years.

The NAND Flash memory is connected to the NAND Flash Controller (NFC).

7.3 I²C EEPROM (U6)

The phyCARD-M is populated with an ST 24W32C1 non-volatile 4KByte EEPROM with an I²C interface at U6. This memory can be used to store configuration data or other general purpose data. This device is accessed through I²C port 1 on the i.MX35. The control registers for I²C port 1 are mapped between addresses 0x43F8 0000 and 0x43F8 3FFF. Please see the i.MX35 Reference Manual for detailed information on the registers.

: See the manufacturer’s data sheet for interfacing and operation.

Page 48

phyCARD-M [PCA-A-M1-xxx]

40 © PHYTEC Messtechnik GmbH 2010 L-750e_1

Three solder jumpers are provided to set the lower address bits: J3, J4 and J5. Refer to section 7.3.1 for details on setting these jumpers.

Write protection to the device is accomplished via jumper J2. Refer to section 7.3.2 for further details on setting this jumper.

7.3.1 Setting the EEPROM Lower Address Bits (J1, J3,

J4)

The 4KB I²C EEPROM populating U6 on the phyCARD-M module has the capability of configuring the lower address bits A0, A1, and A2. The four upper address bits of the device are fixed at ‘1010’ (see ST 24W32C data sheet). The remaining three lower address bits of the seven bit I²C device address are configurable using jumpers J1, J3 and J4. J4 sets address bit A0, J1 address bit A1, and J3 address bit A2.

Table 11 below shows the resulting seven bit I²C device address for the eight possible jumper configurations.

System Memory

7.3.2 EEPROM Write Protection Control (J16)

Jumper J16 controls write access to the EEPROM (U6) device. Closing this jumper allows write access to the device, while removing this jumper will cause the EEPROM to enter write protect mode, thereby disabling write access to the device.

The following configurations are possible:

EEPROM Write Protection State J16

Write access allowed closed

Write protected open

Table 12: EEPROM write protection states via J161

7.4 Memory Model

There is no special address decoding device on the phyCARD-M, which means that the memory model is given according to the memory mapping of the i.MX35. Please refer to the i.MX35 Reference Manual for more information on the memory mapping.

8 SD / MMC Card Interfaces

The X-Arc bus features an SD / MMC Card interface. On the phyCARD-M the interface signals extend from the controllers first Enhanced Secure Digital Host Controller (SDIO1) to the phyCARDConnector. Table 13 shows the location of the different interface signals on the phyCARD-Connector. The Secure Digital Host Controller is fully compatible with the SD Memory Card Specification

2.0 and SD I/O Specification 2.0 with 1 and 4 channel(s) and supports data rates from 25 Mbps to 200 Mbps (refer to the i.MX35 Reference Manual for more information).

Due to compatibility reasons a card detect signal (X_SDIO_CD) is added to the SD / MMC Card Interface. This signal connects to port GPIO3_1 of the i.MX35.

SD / MMC Card Interfaces

Note:

The signal level of the SD / MMC card interface is 3.3V. Thus integration of an SD / MMC card slot on custom target hardware does not require any special precautions. Nonetheless use of level shifters supplied with the voltage at pins X2A5 and X2B5 at one of the supply rails is necessary if you want to keep your application compatible to other phyCARDs with a different signal level.

Please refer to the chapter "SD / MMC" in the phyCARD Design-In Guide for more information about connecting an SD / MMC Card slot to the phyCARD-M.

9 Serial Interfaces

The phyCARD-M provides seven serial interfaces some of which are equipped with a transceiver to allow direct connection to external devices:

1. High speed UART (TTL, derived from UART1 of the i.MX35)

with up to 4.125Mbit/s and hardware flow control (RTS and CTS signals)

2. High speed USB OTG interface extend from the i.MX35 USB

OTG interface

3. Full speed USB HOST interface using the i.MX35 's internal USB

Host interface, or optional high speed USB HOST interface derived from an external USB HOST controller at U16.

4. Auto-MDIX enabled 10/100 Ethernet PHY supporting the

i.MX35 Ethernet MAC

5. I

C interface (derived from third I2C port of the i.MX35)

6. Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) interface (extended from the first

SPI module of the i.MX35)

7. Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) with AC97 support

(originating from the synchronous serial interface of the i.MX35)

The following sections of this chapter detail each of these serial interfaces and any applicable configuration jumpers.

Page 53

Serial Interfaces

Caution:

The signal level of some of the serial interfaces is VDD_3V3_IN, which is 3.3V and therefore identical with the voltage level of the primary supply voltage of the phyCARD-M. Therefore special precautions are not necessary when connecting to these interfaces. Nonetheless if you want to keep your application compatible with other phyCARDs and thus being able to change your application's processing power, level shifters supplied with the output voltage at pins X2A5 and X2B5 at one of the supply rails should be used when connecting these interfaces to external devices. Unlike on the phyCARD-M the voltage level of interface signals is different from the primary supply voltage on other phyCARDs. Please pay special attention to the Signal Level (SL) column in the following tables.

Please refer to the phyCARD Design-In Guide for more information about using the serial interfaces of the phyCARD-M in customer applications.

9.1 Universal Asynchronous Interface

The phyCARD-M provides a high speed universal asynchronous interface with up to 4 Mbit/s and hardware flow control (RTS and CTS signals). The following table shows the location of the signals on the phyCARD- Connector.

The signals extend from UART1 of the i.MX35 directly to the phyCARD-Connector without conversion to RS-232 level. External RS-232 transceivers must be attached by the user if RS-232 levels are required.

9.2 USB-OTG Interface

The i.MX35 features an USB 2.0 OTG (up to 480 Mbps) controller with internal high-speed OTG PHY. The signals of the high-speed OTG PHY extend directly to the phyCARD-Connector X2. An external USB Standard-A (for USB host), USB Standard-B (for USB device), or USB mini-AB (for USB OTG) connector is all that is needed to interface the phyCARD-M USB OTG functionality. The applicable interface signals can be found on the phyCARD-Connector as shown in Table 15.

9.3 USB-Host Interface

The i.MX35 has an internal USB 2.0 Host with internal full-speed PHY. The phyCARD-M is optionally populated with an NXP ISP1760 High-Speed USB Host controller at U16 to also allow highspeed USB HOST connectivity. Jumpers J18 - J20 and J25 select either the internal PHY of the i.MX35 or the external USB HOST controller at U16. They are installed prior to delivery and must not be changed. An external USB Standard-A (for USB host connector is all that is needed to interface the phyCARD-M USB Host functionality. The applicable interface signals (D+/D-/ /PSW/FAULT) can be found on the phyCARD-Connector.

9.4 Ethernet Interface

Connection of the phyCARD-M to the world wide web or a local area network (LAN) is possible using the integrated FEC (Fast Ethernet Controller) of the i.MX35. The FEC operates with a data transmission speed of 10 or 100 Mbit/s.

9.4.1 PHY Physical Layer Transceiver (U7)

With a physical layer transceiver mounted at U7 the phyCARD-M has been designed for use in 10Base-T and 100Base-T networks. The 10/100Base-T interface with its LED signals extends to phyCARDConnector X2.

Table 17: Location of the Ethernet signals

The Ethernet PHY provides MII/RMII/SMII interfaces to transmit and receive data. In addition the PHY also supports HP Auto-MDIX technology, eliminating the need for the consideration of a direct connect LAN cable, or a cross-over patch cable. It detects the TX and RX pins of the connected device and automatically configures the

Page 57

Serial Interfaces

PHY TX and RX pins accordingly. The Ethernet PHY also features LinkMD cable diagnostics, which allows detection of common cabling plant problems such as open and short circuits.

The physical memory area for the Fast Ethernet controller is defined in Table 18.

Table 18: Fast Ethernet controller memory map

In order to connect the module to an existing 10/100Base-T network some external circuitry is required. The required 49.9 Ohm +/-1% termination resistors on the analog signals (ETH_RX±, ETH_TX±) are already populated on the module. Connection to an external Ethernet magnetics should be done using very short signal traces. The TPI+/TPI- and TPO+/TPO- signals should be routed as 100 Ohm differential pairs. The same applies for the signal lines after the transformer circuit. The carrier board layout should avoid any other signal lines crossing the Ethernet signals.

An example for the external circuitry is shown in the phyCARD's Design Guide.

If you are using the applicable Carrier Board for the phyCARD-M (part number PBA-A-01), the external circuitry mentioned above is already integrated on the board (refer to section 17.3.4).

Caution!

Please see the datasheet of the Ethernet PHY as well as the phyCARD's Design Guide when designing the Ethernet transformer circuitry.

9.4.2 MAC Address

In a computer network such as a local area network (LAN), the MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique computer hardware number. For a connection to the Internet, a table is used to convert the assigned IP number to the hardware's MAC address.

In order to guarantee that the MAC address is unique, all addresses are managed in a central location. PHYTEC has acquired a pool of MAC addresses. The MAC address of the phyCARD-M is located on the bar code sticker attached to the module. This number is a 12-digit HEX value.

9.5 I2C Interface

The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) interface is a two-wire, bidirectional serial bus that provides a simple and efficient method for data exchange among devices. The i.MX35 contains three identical and independent I

C modules. The interface of the third module is available on the phyCARD-Connector., whereas the first module connects to the on-board EEPROM (refer to section 7.3) and the Power Management IC at U1 (refer to section 5). The following table lists the I

The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) interface is a six-wire, bidirectional serial bus that provides a simple and efficient method for data exchange among devices. The i.MX35 contains two SPI modules. The interface signals of the first module (CSPI1) are made available on the phyCARD-Connector. This module is Master/Slave configurable. Due to the specification of the X-Arc bus, only two of the three chips-selects are available on the phyCARD-Connector. The following table lists the SPI signals on the phyCARD-Connector:

9.7 Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI)

The Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) interface of the phyCARD-M is a full-duplex, serial port that allows to communicate with a variety of serial devices, such as standard codecs, digital signal processors (DSPs), microprocessors, peripherals, and popular industry audio codecs that implement the inter-IC sound bus standard (I

S) and Intel

AC97 standard.

Page 60

phyCARD-M [PCA-A-M1-xxx]

52 © PHYTEC Messtechnik GmbH 2010 L-750e_1

With reference to the X-Arc bus specification, the main purpose of this interface is to connect to an external codec, such as AC97. In AC97 mode the clock and the frame sync signal are synchronous for the receive and transmit sections of the i.MX35 SSI module. Thus only four signals extend from the i.MX35 Digital Audio MUX (AUDMUX) to the phyCARD-Connector (X_STXD4, X_SRXD4, X_SCK4, X_STXFS4). X_AC97_INT and X_AC97_nRESET are two additional pins assisting the functionality of this interface. X_AC97_INT is used as input and output. As output it signals which codec is supported by the phyCARD. Use of this pin as an input enables to attach an external interrupt to port GPIO2_1 (at W14). X_AC97_nRESET is connected to port GPIO3_2 (at R5) of the i.MX35 allowing to perform a software reset for the device attached to the interface. Please also read the phyCARD Design-In Guide for more information about how to use the AC97 interface.

Table 22: Location of GPIO and IRQ pins

As can be seen in the table above the voltage level is VDD_3V3, which is 3.3V and equals the supply voltage of the phyCARD-M. Thus connecting external devices to the phyCARD-M does not require any special precautions. This means that external devices could be supplied from the same power source as the phyCARD-M. Nonetheless we recommend to supply external devices with the voltage (VCC_Logic) brought out at pins X2A5 and X2B5 of the phyCARD-Connector if you want to keep your application compatible to other phyCARDs with a different signal level (refer to section 4.4). Alternatively an open drain circuit with a pull-up resistor attached to VCC_Logic can be connected to the GPIOs of the phyCARD-M.

Please refer to the chapter "GPIOs" in the phyCARD Design-In Guide for more information about how to integrate the GPIO pins in your design.

11 Debug Interface (X1)

The phyCARD-M is equipped with a JTAG interface for downloading program code into the external flash, internal controller RAM or for debugging programs currently executing. The JTAG interface extends to a 2.0 mm pitch pin header at X1 on the edge of the module PCB. Figure 9 and show the position of the debug interface (JTAG connector X1) on the phyCARD-M module.

Figure 10: JTAG interface at X1 (bottom view)

Pin 1 of the JTAG connector X1 is on the connector side of the module. Pin 2 of the JTAG connector is on the controller side of the module.

Note:

The JTAG connector X1 only populates phyCARD-M modules with order code PCA-A-M1-D. JTAG connector X1 is not populated on phyCARD modules with order code PCA-A-M1. We recommend integration of a standard (2 mm pitch) pin header connector in the user target circuitry to allow easy program updates via the JTAG interface.

*Note: Row A is on the controller side of the module and row B is on the connector side of the module

PHYTEC offers a JTAG-Emulator adapter (order code JA-002) for connecting the phyCARD-M to a standard emulator. The JTAGEmulator adapter extends the signals of the module's JTAG connector to a standard ARM connector with 2 mm pin pitch. The JA-002 therefore functions as an adapter for connecting the module's nonARM-compatible JTAG connector X1 to standard Emulator connectors.

LVDS Display Interface

12 LVDS Display Interface

The phyCARD-M uses a DS90C383 4-Channel 24-Bit LVDS Transmitter (U32) to generate LVDS-Signals from the parallel TTL Display Interface. Thus you can connect a LVDS-Display to the phyCARD-M. The location of the applicable interface signals (X_TXOUT1-3+/X_TXOUT1-3-/X_TXCLK+/TXCLK-) can be found in the table below.

12.2 LVDS Display Interface pixel mapping

The phyCARD specification defines the pixel mapping of the LVDS display interface. The pixel mapping equates to the OpenLDI respectively Intel 24.0 standard. Thus you can connect 18-bit as well as 24-bit LVDS displays to the phyCARD. Table 25 and Table 26 show the recommended pixel mapping of the LVDS display. For further information please see the phyCARD Design Guide.

Note:

Make sure that the LVDS display you want to use provides the same pin mapping as the phyCARD. Normally this is only important for 24bit LVDS displays because due to the organization of the LVDS pixel mapping all common 18-bit LVDS displays should work.

13 LVDS Camera Interface

The phyCARD-M uses a DS92LV1212A 1-channel 10-Bit LVDS Random Lock Deserializer (U5) to receive LVDS-Signals from a LVDS Camera Interface. The LVDS Deserializer converts the LVDS signal to a 10-bit wide parallel data bus and separate clock which can be used as inputs for the i.MX35 Camera Sensor Interface. The 10-bit wide data bus consists of 8 color information bits and 2 sync bits (HSYNC/VSYNC).

The following table shows the location of the applicable interface signals (X_CSI_MCLK, X_LOCK, X_RXIN+, X_RXIN-) on the phyCARD-Connector.

16 Hints for Handling the phyCARD-M

• Modifications on the phyCARD Module

Removal of various components, such as the microcontroller and the standard quartz, is not advisable given the compact nature of the module. Should this nonetheless be necessary, please ensure that the board as well as surrounding components and sockets remain undamaged while de-soldering. Overheating the board can cause the solder pads to loosen, rendering the module inoperable. Carefully heat neighboring connections in pairs. After a few alternations, components can be removed with the solder-iron tip. Alternatively, a hot air gun can be used to heat and loosen the bonds.

Caution!

If any modifications to the module are performed, regardless of their nature, the manufacturer guarantee is voided.

• Integrating the phyCARD into a Target Application

Successful integration in user target circuitry greatly depends on the adherence to the layout design rules for the GND connections of the phyCARD module. For best results we recommend using a carrier board design with a full GND layer. It is important to make sure that the GND pins that have neighboring signals which are used in the application circuitry are connected. Just for the power supply of the module at least 8 GND pins that are located right next to the VCC pins must be connected

Note!

Please refer to the phyCARD Design-In Guide (LAN-051) for additional information, layout recommendations and example circuitry.

Note:

Even though the signal levels of the phyCARD's I2C and SPI interface are already 3.3 V the interfaces are connected to level shifters on the phyCARD Carrier Board. This is essential to keep the phyCARD Carrier Board compatible with all phyCARDs. Ensure that all module connections are not to exceed their expressed maximum voltage or current. Maximum signal input values are indicated in the corresponding controller User's Manual/Data Sheets. As damage from improper connections varies according to use and application, it is the user‘s responsibility to take appropriate safety measures to ensure that the module connections are protected from overloading through connected peripherals.

Do not use a laboratory adapter to supply power to the Carrier Board! Power spikes during power-on could destroy the phyCARD-module mounted on the Carrier Board! Do not change modules or jumper settings while the Carrier Board is supplied with power!

Permissible input voltage at X28: +9 - +36 V DC unregulated.

The required current load capacity of the power supply depends on the specific configuration of the phyCARD mounted on the Carrier Board as well as whether an optional expansion board is connected to the Carrier Board. An adapter with a minimum supply of 2.0 A is recommended.

Note:

For powering up the phyCARD the following actions have to be done:

1. Plug in the power supply connector » All power LEDs should light up and the phyCARD puts

serial output to serial line 0 at P1.

2. For powering down the phyCARD-M button S2 should be pressed for a minimum time of 2000ms.

3. Press button S2 for a maximum time of 1000ms seconds.

» All power LEDs should light up and the phyCARD puts

serial output to serial line 0 at P1.

The phyCARD-M on the phyBASE

Three different power states are possible RUN, OFF and SUSPEND.

• During RUN all supply voltages except VSTBY are on. This

means that the phyCARD-M is supplied by VCC_PHYCARD.

• In OFF state all supply voltages are turned off. Only the standby

voltage (VCC3V3STBY) of the phyBASE itself is still available to supply the PLD, the RTC and to provide a high-level voltage for the Reset and Power switch.

• In SUSPEND mode only the standby voltage VSTBY for the

phyCARD-M and the standby voltage (VCC3V3STBY) of the phyBASE itself are generated. This means the phyCARD-M is supplied only by VSTBY.

The RUN and OFF state can be entered using the power button S2 as described in the gray box above. It is also possible to enter OFF state with the help of the phyCARD's nPower_off signal (GPIO2_30 at T5 of the i.MX35). To enter OFF state signal nPower_off must be active (low).

SUSPEND state can be entered using signal nSuspend_to_RAM at pin X2A26B of the phyCARD Connector (GPIO2_29 at V2 of the i.MX35). nSuspend_to_RAM must be active (low) for at least 500ms.

Figure 26: Universal LVDS interface at connector X6

The various performance classes of the phyCARD family allow to attach a large number of different displays varying in resolution, signal level, type of the backlight, Pin-out, etc. In order not to limit the range of displays connectable to the phyCARD, the phyBASE has no special display connector suitable only for a small number of displays. The new concept intends the use of an adapter board (e.g. phyBASE LCD interface LCD-014) to attach a special display, or display family to the phyCARD. Two universal connectors provide the connectivity for the display adapter. They allow easy adaption also to any customer display. The display data connector at X6 combines various interface signals like LVDS, USB, I

C, etc. required to hook up a display. The display power connector at X32 provides all supply voltages needed to supply the display and a backlight.
