Certain settings on the device control card are required to communicate over JTAG and use the isolated UART port. The user must also provide a correct ADC reference voltage. The following are the required settings for revision A of the F280049M control card. One can also refer to the info sheet located inside C2000Ware at <install_path>\c2000ware\boards\controlcards\TMDSCNCD280049C or alternatively get it from the document http://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spruic4
- S1:A on the control card must be set on both ends to “ON (up) ” position to enable JTAG connection to the device and UART connection for SFRA GUI. If this switch is “OFF (down)” one cannot use the isolated JTAG built in on the control card nor can SFRA GUI communicate to the device.
- J1:A is the connector for the USB cable that is used to communicate to the device from a host PC on which
Code Composer Studio™ (CCS) runs.
- A 3.3-V reference is desired for the control loop tuning on this design. Internal reference of the F28004x is used and for this S8 switch must be moved to the left i.e. pointing to VREFHI
- A capacitor is connected between the isolated grounds on the control card, C26:A. It is advised to remove this capacitor for the best performance of this reference design.
