3. Getting Started

Before you start working with your development board, you must obtain the latest version of the Synergy Software Package (SSP), as well as the development tools needed to work with it.
If you are new to Synergy development, we encourage you to use the AE-CLOUD2 Quick Start Guide. This guide will provide detailed instructions on how to register an account on the Synergy Gallery to o btain a developer license, and how to download and install all software & tools that are required. Once you have completed these steps, please return to this section for more in-dep th in formation on ho w to wor k wit h yo ur S5D9 MCU board.

3.1 Connecting the Boards

Plug the Wi-Fi Module to the MCU board through a PMOD connector. Plug the Cellular Arduino Shield into the S5D9 MCU board. Be careful to align the Arduino Shield connector pins correctly.
Connect the USB cables from J6 (for debugging) and from J9 (for communication) on the MCU Board to the host computer. The USB Device connector (J9) provides 5V power to the entire kit. The USB J-Link OB Debug connector (J6) provides 5V power only to the MCU board.
For cellular and GPS operation, connect the cellular antenna and the GPS antenna to their corresponding connectors on the Cellular Arduino Shield. As seen in Figure 6, the cellular antenna goes to the top connector.

3.2 Download Application Software

The kit comes without firmware pre-installed on its MCU board. The user is encouraged to download cloud connectivity example projects of their choice by searching for AE-CLOUD2 at http://renesassynergy.com.
On this kit webpage, the user can find links to the individual application projects for Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Service (AWS), and Google Cloud Platform as well as Synergy Enterprise Cloud Toolbox demo and Medium One IoT Prototyping Sandbox tutorial.

A power management based on 3.3V LDO voltage regulator required for the operation of the microcontroller.
Quad SPI flash – the MCU flash memory is expande d with external 256 Mbits (32 M B) memory device connected
over a high -speed QSPI interface. T he external flash can be used for storage of graphics and other digital assets, or for execution of code in place (XIP).
User-defined LE D s – the user-defined LEDs are useful in indicating the current state of the firmware. The 3 LEDs
have different colors for easy identification.
USB device interface – the S5D9 MCU includes one USB interface operating at full speed. The USB device
connector is also used to power the board.
PMOD interface header – the board includes one 12-pin PMOD header that can be configured by a jumper to
provide 3.3V on its power pins. The header enables interfacing with other devices over SPI or UART.
Grove connectors – the Grove connectors are compatible with the Seeed Studio’s line of peripheral modules that
include a very large selection of sensors and actuators. One of the Grove connectors can be configured to communicate over UART and the other is dedicated for I
J-Link On-Board SEGGER debugging probe based on Syner gy S124 MCU.

4.2 Power Requirements

The AE-CLOUD2 is designed to be powered by the USB device interface on J9 connect or. The S5D9 board can supply power to the devices connec ted to it. The PMOD interface and the Grove connectors can
power 3.3V peripherals. The power supply requirements and current consumption specifications are listed in following table.
Table 1 Electrical Speci f icat io ns
R12UM0033EU0100 Rev.1.00 Page 10 of 48 Sep 5, 2018
Page 11
Renesas Synergy™ Platform Application Example for Cloud Connectivity (AE-CLOUD2)

4.2.1 Power Supply Options

The power supply source is the J9 - USB Micro-B connector providi ng 5 V and up to 500 mA of po wer.
Figure 9 Power Supply Management
Note that the Schottky diodes provided are in series with the power source. This protects them from overload in case both are connected and one has higher voltage than the other.

4.2.2 Power-up Behavior

Upon power up, the MCU is idle until its RESET pin registers transition to logic 1. At this point, the MCU hardware samples the logic level of the MD pin. The MD pin level determines if the MCU will enter ‘Factory Boot Mode’. In this mode, the MCU executes an internal firmware code that initializes the USB interface and prepares the device to communicate with utilities that can upd a te the content of its memory.
The state of the MD pin at startup is defined by S2. If the button is pressed at the time of the RESET signal, then the factory bootloader will execute on startup . If S2 is not pressed at the time o f the RE SE T signal, then the MCU will execute the code previously loaded to the MCU code flash memory.

4.5 Arduino-Compatible Expansion Headers

The S5D9 MCU board includes Arduino-compatible headers that enable interfacing with a wide range of Ard ui no Shields and expanding its features. Most of the interface signals are connected directly to the MCU pins. This enables their configuration to change depending on the application needs. Figure 15 indicates the port and pin number for each interface signal along with its primary role. The specific function and pin-muxing depends on the application and the hardware specifics of the S5D9 MCU.
Note that the 5V power brought to the POWER header pin 4 is connected directly to the USB VBUS power rail from the USB device connector (J6).

5. Wi-Fi Board

The Wi-Fi board is based on the GT 202 module. It incorporates the Qualcomm® Atheros QCA4002 device. T he QCA4002 is a system on a chip (SoC), implementing the 802.11 b/g/n communication standards. It is optimized for low-power embedded applications with single-stream capability for both transmit and receive streams. The SoC has an integrated network pr ocessor wit h a large set of TCP/IP with IPv4/IPv6-based services. They can be accessed via high­speed SPI interface that is accessible on a 12-pin PMOD header.

5.1 Wi-Fi Board Block Diagram

Figure 17 shows the Wi-Fi board block diagram. Its main component is the GT202 module that incorporates the QCA4002 SoC. The power options include USB and PMOD header. The 5V USB power is regulated to 3.3V with a step-down converter to 3.3V. A dedicated jumper is used to select the desired power source.
The GT20 2 Wi-Fi module integrates the QCA4002 SoC on a carrier board which brings out three different host connectivity options:
SPI interface through the PMOD connector – used for interfacing with the AE-CLOUD2 MCU board and power
SDIO / UART interface – used for rapid prototyping and low communication speeds (not utilized by the AE-
USB interface / Host-less – used for fast prototyping, diagnostic and alternative power supply (not utilized by the
