7. Target Board
The C8051F540 Development Kit includes a target board with a C8051F540 (Side A) and C8051F542 (Side B)
device pre-installed for evaluation and preliminary software development. Numerous input/output (I/O) connections
are provided to facilitate prototyping using the target board. Refer to Figure 3 for the locations of the various I/O
connectors. Figure 4 on page 9 shows the factory default shorting block positions. A summary of the signal names
and headers is provided in Table 9 on page 15.
P4
Header to choose between +5V from Debug Adapter (P2) or +5V from on-board regulator (U4)
J18
Connect V_HIGH node from TB1 LIN header to +5V regulator input for board power
P1
Power connector (accepts input from 7 to 15 VDC unregulated power adapter)
P5
USB connector (connects to PC for serial communication)
TB1
Shared LIN Connector for Side A and B MCUs for external nodes
J1-J3
Side A: Port 0 through Port 2 headers
J8
Side A: Connects +5V net to VIO and VREGIN of the MCU
