    1 QuickStart tutorial, ● some target microcontroller specific documentation. ● The REva mother board can be powered by an external power supply which is not provided. The characteristics of the power supply are: 9V DC output, ● 2.1 x 5 mm jack connector with ground signal on the outside.
  • Page 8 REva daughter board without additional power supply or cables. The two tools can also be easily broken apart so that both the REva and the RLink can be used independently, or together. This requires the use of the furnished cable and an additional power supply (not furnished) for the REva.
  • Page 9 ● power is supplied by the USB connection (see paragraph 2.1). “Broken apart mode”: The REva is connected to the RLink (or other tool that supports in- ● circuit debugging and programming) via a connection cable. Power is supplied by a 9V auxiliary power supply (see Illustration 3 and paragraph 2.2).

  • Page 17: Layout Of The Reva Mother Board

    Illustration 6: REva mother board features Illustration 6 shows the thematic areas for the REva's evaluation features. The REva mother board exists in two versions. The version number (1.0 or 2.0) is printed on the mother board next to the SO-DIMM connector.
  • Page 18: Power Supply Area (Reva V1.X)

    (REva v1.x) This area allows you to choose the voltage to be used on the whole REva board as well as on the daughter board. Because of the dropout voltage of the regulator, the 5V voltage cannot be generated from the USB 5V. Thus, to use 5V target microcontrollers without external power supply, the USB power supply must not pass through the regulator but must be used directly.
  • Page 19 3. REva mother board 3.2.3 Features 1 jack for the connection of auxiliary 9V power supply to power the REva board in broken apart ● mode. Should you require one, the 9V power supply should output 9V DC and have a 2.1 x 5 mm jack with the ground signal on the outside.
  • Page 20: Power Supply Area (Reva V2.X)

    (REva v2.x) This area allows to choose the voltage to be used on the whole REva board as well as on the daughter board. On the REva v2.0 the daughter board configures automatically the regulator and defines the possible sources for VDD. Direct USB 5V must not be used with 3.3V daughter boards. It could damage them.
  • Page 21 3. REva mother board 3.3.3 Features 1 jack for the connection of auxiliary 9V power supply to power the REva board in broken apart ● mode. Should you require one, the 9V power supply should output 9V DC and have a 2.1 x 5 mm jack with the ground signal on the outside.
  • Page 22: Isp/Isd Connection Area

    This area allows the connection of a daughter board featuring a target microcontroller for evaluation. The REva mother board cannot be used without a daughter board. This area may also be used to connect the REva to another board with the appropriate connectors soldered to the bottom.

    5. Daughter Boards REva User Guide: Mother Board 5. Daughter Boards The daughter boards contain all the components dedicated to a specific target microcontroller, including the microcontroller itself, a clock selector and other device dependent features. This chapter provides general purpose considerations about the daughter boards.
  • Page 33: Insertion/Extraction

    Do not insert 1.8V daughter boards before the RLink and the REva have been broken apart. As ISP/ISD signals are connected directly between the mother board and the RLink, it is mandatory to break these connections before using 1.8V target devices, as the RLink cannot work at this voltage.
