4. TB-S5D3 Hardware Details
4.1 Jumpers and DIP Switch Settings
4.1.1 Copper Jumpers
Copper jumpers are of two types, designated trace-cut and solder-bridge.
A trace-cut jumper is provided with a narrow copper trace connecting its pads. The silk screen overlay
printing around a trace-cut jumper is a solid box. To isolate the pads, cut the trace between pads adjacent to
each pad, then remove the connecting copper foil either mechanically or using heat. Once the etched copper
trace is removed, the trace-cut jumper is turned into a solder-bridge jumper for any later changes.
A solder-bridge jumper is provided with two isolated pads that may be joined together by one of three
methods:
• Solder may be applied to both pads to develop a bulge on each and the bulges joined by touching a
soldering iron across the two pads.
• A small wire may be placed across the two pads and soldered in place.
• A SMT resistor, size 0805, 0603, or 0402, may be placed across the two pads and soldered in place. A
zero-ohm resistor shorts the pads together.
The silk screen overlay printing around a solder-bridge jumper is a box with a gap in the lines adjacent to the
isolation region between the pads.
For any copper jumper, the connection is considered closed if there is an electrical connection between the
pads (default for trace-cut jumpers.) The connection is considered open if there is no electrical connection
between the pads (default for the solder-bridge jumpers.)

4.1.2 Default Board Configuration
The following table describes the default settings for each jumper on the TB-S5D3. This includes traditional
pin jumpers (Jx designation) and copper jumpers (Ex designation).
The Circuit Group for each jumper is the designation found in the board schematic. Functional details for
many of the listed jumpers may be found in section 5.4, Connectivity and Settings and section 5.6, Additional
Features.
The TB-S5D3 is designed for 3.3 V operation. This also means that 5 V PMOD de v ices cannot be us ed
together with the TB-S5D3 unless they are powered separately.
The total current available from the LDO regulator for all connected circuits is 600 mA or less, depending on
the 5 V power source used.
5.2.1 Power Supply Options
The TB-S5D3 can be powered in several different ways as described in this section.
Figure 6. Power Supply Options
5.2.1.1 Option 1: Debug USB (Default)
The default power source is 5 V, supplied from an external USB host to the USB
Debug connector labelled DEBUG USB on the top surface of the board. A low dropout regulator (LDO) is used to convert the 5 V signal to 3.3 V, which then is used to
power the MCU and any connected devices.
Copper jumper E35 selects the source for the primary power input to the LDO
regulator. By default, this jumper is configured to provide power through the Debug
USB connector. Copper jumper E35 is closed for this configuration.
5.2.1.2 Option 2: Test Points TP3 and TP4
The TB-S5D3 board can also be powered by installing a 5 V power source across TP3 (positive input) and
TP4 (negative input). Copper jumper E35 must be opened to enable powering the board using these test
points.
The on-board Low Dropout Regulator (see section 5.3, Main Components) has an input
voltage range of +3.3 V to +5.5 V, and a built-in current limit of 600 mA. Make sure any
external power source connected to TP3 and TP4 meets these requirements.
The TB-S5D3 board can also be powered by installing a 3.3 V source across TP1 (positive input) and TP2
(negative input). Copper jumper E35 must be open to enable powering the board using these test points .
Figure 8. TP1, TP2, and LED1 on the Target Board
These test points supply voltage directly to the S5D3 MCU, the S124 J-Link MCU, and other
on-board circuitry. Use caution to ensure that any voltage connected in this manner meets
the power requirements for the active features. Power sources that are outside of the
published operating range for the active devices may cause degraded performance or
damage the board.
5.2.1.4 Option 4: Pin Headers
TB-S5D3 can also be powered through the follow in g pin headers on the board:
• J1 (pin J1-15 for +3.3 V, pin J1-17 for Return)
• J2 (pin J2-10 for +3.3 V, pin J2-12 for Return)
• J4 (pin J4-37 for +3.3 V, pin J4-36 for Return)
Copper jumper E35 must be open for any of these configurations.
The pin headers supply voltage directly to the S5D3 MCU, the S124 J-Link MCU, and other
on-board circuitry. Use caution to ensure that any voltage connected in this manner
meets the power requirements for the active features. Power sources that are outside of
the published operating range for the active devices may cause degraded performance or
damage the board.
See Section 5.5, Target Board Pin Headers for more information on the Pin Headers.
When powered up, the green LED to the right of the DEVICE USB connector (LED2) lights up.
The red LED in the same LED package functions as a status indicator for the J-Link® On-board (OB) debug
interface on the board. If both LEDs in the LED2 package are lit, LED2 appears orange.
Figure 11. LED2 on the Target Board (Top Side)
5.2.3 Battery Supply Configuration
An external battery may be connected according to the methods outlined in Section 5.2.1, Power Supply
Options, provided that it meets the minimum voltage and current requirements.
Additionally, an external battery source may be connected to VBAT at Pin Header location J2-29 (J2-12
ground return) to maintain the MCU Realtime Clock (RTC) when other main power sources are disconnected
from the TB-S5D3 board.
5.2.4 Measuring Current Consumption
Pads 1 and 3 of copper jumper E6, which is a dual trace-cut jumper, allow measurement of +3V3 MCU
supply current. Pads 2 and 4 of E6 allow measurement of VBAT supply current. Both traces are connected
by default. These traces should be cut to enable power measurement. Care must be taken when cutting the
trace to not cause damage to PCB layers below the trace.
The actual current consumed by the S5D3 MCU is dependent on many factors, including ambient
temperature, internal clock speed, input voltage level, and device activity. The actual current consumed by
the MCU can vary from less than 1 mA to nearly 40 mA. See the S5D3 User’s Manual for more information
on the electrical characteristics of the MCU.
Once the shorting traces have been removed, there are several options to measure current:
• Pins can be installed that allow connection of a precision multi-meter or bench meter, or leaded current
shunt to allow oscilloscope or data logger connection. When not measuring current, this allows easily
installed and removed shunts to be used to short the jumper terminals.
• Another option is to install current sense resistors between pads 1 and 3 for +3V3MCU, and between
pads 2 and 4 for VBAT. Pr e c ision non-inductive film or foil resistors are recommended for use in this
application, and the value of each resistor should be caefully considered.
For example, if the expected current requirement for the +3V3 MCU supply voltage is 10 mA, and the
user would expect to measure a 10 mV drop across the current measurement resistor, then a 1.0-ohm
resistor should be selected and installed.
The actual value selected should be based on the operating conditions of the MCU for the specific user
application, and the sensitivity of the measurement equipment used.

5.4 Connectivity and Settings
Throughout this section, feature configuration using copper jumpers is described. See Section 4.1.1, Copper
Jumpers for information on using copper jumpers.
5.4.1 Device USB
The DEVICE USB Micro-B connection jack connects the Main MCU to an external
USB Host, FS capable, allowing communications for testing and use of the Main
MCU firmware. Power for the Target Board cannot be received from this connector.
The DEVICE USB interface can detect the presence of power from the USB Host
PC. USB Host power received at the DEVICE USB interface is not connected to
the Target Board 5 V power bus.
Table 2. DEVICE USB Connector (J9)

Connections in Table 2 are based on the condition of
copper jumpers E16, E17, E20, E21, and E3 0 matc hing
their default state. By default, E16 and E17 are closed,
E20 and E21 are open, and E30 is closed.
Alternatively, the Device USB signals to the Main MCU may be connected to MCU Pin Header J1. To enable
this configuration, copper jumpers E16 and E17 should be open, and E20 and E21 should be closed.
Main MCU sensing of Host presence
5.4.2 Debug USB
The DEBUG USB Micro-B connection jack connects the S124 J-Link MCU to an
external USB Host, FS capable, allowing re-programming and debugging of the Main
MCU firmware. Power for the Target Board may be received from this connector.
The J-Link® OB interface is multiplexed with the JTAG interface and can
collectively be referred to as the Programming Interface. While the J-Link® OB
interface and the JTAG interface do not conflict, the J-Link® OB signals may be
isolated from the programming int erfac e by changing the associated copper
jumpers.
J-Link Disconnect Copper Jumpers E32, E33, E34, E37, and E38 connect the JLink signals to the MCU programming interface. To isolate the J-Link signals from
the JTAG interface, these copper jumpers must be open. To allow use of the
J-Link interface, each copper jumper must be closed.
J-Link MCU Power Copper Jumper, E1, connects the main +3.3 V power to the JLink +3.3 V power. The default condition for E1 is closed, which connects the J-Link
MCU power to the main +3.3 V power. If J-Link signals are disconnected, the power
to the J-Link MCU should also be removed by changing E1 to open.
Three of the J-Link ports (P108, P109, and P300) conflict with the SPI interface, as shown in the following
table.
Table 4. J-Link Interface Conflicts
5.4.3 JTAG/SWD
A 10-pin Cortex® Debug Connector is provided at J10.
Table 5. JTAG/SWD Connector (J10)
The Cortex® Debug Connector is fully described in the Arm® CoreSight™ Architecture Specification.
The J-Link MCU Power copper jumper and J-Link Disconnects copper jumpers may be open for proper
operation of the JTAG interface to prevent interactions with the J-Link MC U. See s ection 5.4.2 for details.
®
If a JTAG adapter is in use that properly interprets the Arm
Cortex® 10-pin Debug
Connector assignment of pin 9 to GND, JTAG GNDDetect copper jumper E31 should
be closed. If the JTAG adapter used is one of several that may be confused or
damaged by the presence of GND at pin 9, E31 should be open (as shipped).
The J-Link® OB interface is multiplexed with the JTAG interface and can collectively be
referred to as the Programming Interface. While the J-Link® OB interface and the JTAG
interface do not conflict, the J-Link® OB signals may be isolated from the programming
interface by changing the copper jumpers as described in section
Four of the JTAG ports (P108, P109, P110 and P300) conflict with the SPI interface, as shown in the
following table.
Table 6. JTAG Interface Conflicts
5.4.4 LEDs
Two LEDs are provided on the TB-S5D3. Target Board U1 is the Main MCU, and directly controls LED1. See
Figure 8 for LED1 location, Figure 11 for LED2 location, and Figure 10 for LED2 circuit. Target Board U2 is
the J-Link MCU and controls the red LED in LED2.
Figure 15. LED1 Control Circuit
The behavior of the LEDs is described in the following table.
Table 7. Target Board LED Functions
To disconnect the User LED from the MCU signal P112, copper jumper E3 must be open.
5.4.5 Switches
Two miniature, momentary, mechanical push-button type SMT switches are mounted on
the Target Board. Pressing the RESET Switch generates a reset signal to restart the Main
MCU. To disconnect the User Switch from the MCU signal P415/IRQ8, copper jumper E4
must be open.
A 12-pin PMOD type 2A connector is provided at PMOD A. The interface is
powered for 3.3 V modules only. The Main MCU acts as the SPI master, and
the connected module acts as an SPI slave device. This interface may
additionally be re-configured in firmware as several other PMOD types.
Signals on PMOD A are shared with Main MCU Pin Header J1 and J2. Care
must be taken to ensure that shared signals are not used concurrently.
Table 9. PMOD A Connector (J5)
Limits of the 3.3 V regulator on the Target Board, and limits of the power source supplying that regulator
(especially for USB Host devices), including the to-be-connected PMOD device, must be considered prior to
connecting a module to a PMOD connector.
5.4.7 PM OD B
A 6-pin PMOD type 4 connector is provided at PMOD B. The interface is
powered for 3.3 V modules only. The Main MCU acts as the UART DCE, and
the connected module acts as the UART DTE. This interface may additionally
be re-configured in firmware as some other PMOD type.
Signals on PMOD B are shared with Main MCU Pin Header J1 and J2. Care
must be taken to ensure that shared signals are not used concurrently.

Capacitive Touch button(s) by the Main MCU. To disconnect the Capacitive Touch
Button from the MCU, copper jumper E2 must be open. To connect MCU signal P207 to
Pin Header J1, copper jumper E5 must be closed.
Note: Capacitor C33 is optional. This design does not include a dielectric overlay, so C33 is added to
reduce the sensitivity of the Capacitive Touch Button. This capacitor is not required by the MCU
specification.

5.5 Target Board Pin Headers
The Target Board Pin Headers J1, J2, J3, and J4, provide access to all Main MCU interface signals, and to
voltages for all Main MCU power ports.
Fixed Function Pin Assignments
For consistency across all Synergy Target Board Kits, some pin assignments on the headers have fixed
function signal assignments. This provides specific signals and functions to be at a common pin header
location on all Target Boards for a particular Synergy MCU group (for example, S1/S3/S5/S7) and, where
possible, across all Synergy Target Boards.
On the TB-S5D3 board, 40 pins of the pin headers are set aside for fixed function assignment. These pins
are odd-numbered pins of J1 and even-numbered pins of J2.
Pin Header Fixed Function Pins are labeled on the Target Board with dark text on a white background. Pins
that are not Fixed Function pins are labeled with white text on a dark background. On the top side of the
board is the functional label for the fixed location. On the bottom side of the board is the port information for
the same pin.
There are several pins in the headers that are Secondary Fixed Function Pins. These Secondary Fixed
Function Pins share common pin assignments with other Target Boards that have Main MCUs with the same
functionality. The Secondary Fixed Function Pins are also labeled with the top side having a functional label,
and the bottom side having a port label.
Capacitor C21 provides noise-bypass capability for VREFH0 and VREFL0, and
capacitor C23 provides nois e-bypass capability for VREFH and VREFL. See
Figure 24 for the circuit design.
By default, VREFH and VREFH0 are connected to the MCU supply voltage
(+3V3MCU) and VREFL and VREFL0 are connected to the system ground.
To disconnect VREFH from the MCU supply voltage, E52 must be open. To
disconnect VREFL from the system ground, E53 must be open. To disconnect
VREFH0 from the MCU supply voltage, E50 must be open. To disconnect
VREFL0 from the system ground, E51 must be open. See Figure 25 for the
circuit design.
5.6.2 Analog Voltage AVCC0/AVSS0
By default, AVCC0 is connected to the MCU supply voltage (+3V3MCU) and AVSS0 is connected to the
system ground.
To disconnect these references from the AVCC0 and AVSS0 lines, copper jumpers E10 and E11 must be
open.
See Figure 25 for the circuit design.

5.6.3 On-Board Clock Crystals
The TB-S5D3 includes two precision crystal clock sources. A precision
12.000 MHz crystal is installed at location X1, and a precision 32.768 kHz
crystal is installed at location X2. These crystal clock sources are connected
to the Main MCU by default.
The MCU pins for the 12 MHz clock crystal may be connected to P212 and
P213. To disconnect the 12 MHz crystal, open copper jumpers E23 and E24,
and close copper jumpers E18 and E19.
The 32.768 kHz clock crystal may be replaced by an external clock source
connected to XCIN. To disconnect the 32.768 kHz crystal, open copper
jumpers E25 and E26, and close copper jumper E22.
A footprint for installation of a potentiometer and a recommended noise-bypass capacitor are
provided on the Target Board. The footprint was designed for installation of a Bourns P/N 3352T-1103LF, or equivalent, as the potentiometer, and a Samsung P/N CL10B104KB8NNNC, or similar, as
the noise-bypass capacitor.
When the User Potentiometer is installed, copper jumper E36 must be closed to connect the User
Potentiometer to the MCU.

5.6.6 Miscellaneous Signals
5.6.6.1 VCL
By default, the Main MCU pin VCL is connected to reference capacitor C51.
To connect this pin to MCU Pin Header J3, solder bridge E55 must be closed.
To disconnect the reference capacitor C51, copper jumper E54 must be open.
By default, the Main MCU pin VCC_USB is connected to the +3V3 MCU supply voltage.
Alternatively, this pin may be connected to MCU Pin Header J1. To do this, copper jumper
E8 must be open, and copper jumper E14 must be closed.
Figure 31. VCC_USB Circuit
5.6.6.3 Signal P205
By default, the Main MCU pin P205 is connected to a TSCAP-A capacitor. This pin may
be connected to MCU Pin Header J2. To do this, copper jumper E12 must be closed.
The TSCAP-A capacitor may be disconnected by making copper jumper E15 open.
