4.3 Using the controlCARD

For the controlCARD to operate, the controlCARD MCU must be powered. This is done through the USB-C connector on the controlCARD or by inputting 5 V through the HSEC connector using the accompanying baseboard. For example, if using a TMDSHSECDOCK docking station baseboard, 5 VDC can be input into the docking station J1 or J17. Then, S1 needs to be toggled to the appropriate position.

Based on the way the controlCARD is used, additional hardware settings are necessary (see Table 4-1).

WARNING: When the controlCARD is used in a high-voltage setup, confirm that the voltages and isolation requirements are identified and understood prior to energizing the board or simulation. When energized, the controlCARD or components connected to the controlCARD cannot be touched. Furthermore, the capacitor C7:A must be removed to minimize the possibility of leakage-current flowing across the isolation barrier of the controlCARD.

Code Composer Studio™ is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) used to debug and develop software for the C2000 series of MCUs. CCS IDE can be downloaded from the following link:
http://www.ti.com/tool/ccstudio.

Note: By default, the TMDSCNCD2800157 controlCARD is configured for 2-pin cJTAG mode. The Code Composer Studio IDE target configuration used to communicate with the embedded XDS110 emulator must be configured for 2-pin cJTAG mode.

Also, GPIO19/X1 and GPIO18/X2 pins are connected on the on-board crystal (Y1) and are not connected to the 120-pin HSEC8 Edge Card Interface.

These and other hardware settings can be modified through switches on the controlCARD. For more details, see Table 4-1.

The following PDF documents are provided, as part of C2000Ware, to describe where each of the F280015x MCU pins appear on the controlCARD connector/docking station:

  • TMDSCNCD2800157_<rev>_120cCARD_pinout – Indicates where each MCU pin goes on the HSEC controlCARD connector or the 120/180-pin controlCARD docking station.
  • TMDSCNCD2800157_<rev>_100DIM_map – Indicates where each MCU pin goes on the DIM100 controlCARD connector or the DIM100 docking station. This assumes that the TMDSADAP180TO100 adapter card is used.

More information on the controlCARD docking station can be found in the C2000Ware at the following location:
