2.9.4 UART

The AM261x controlSOM connects to the XDS110ISO-EVM which uses the onboard XDS110 emulator as a USB2.0 to UART bridge for terminal access. The UART0 transmit and receive signals of the AM261x SoC are mapped to SOM HD Connector J1 to connect to the XDS110ISO-EVM in non-isolation mode, and to the Emulation Header (J7) for use in isolation mode.

The AM261x controlSOM supports an additional UART2 instance that has the transmit and receive signals mapped from the AM261x SoC to the SOM HD Connector J2.
