C8051F31x Development Kit User’s Guide (this document) 2. Hardware Setup The target board is connected to a PC running the Silicon Laboratories IDE via the Serial Adapter as shown in Figure 1. 1. Connect one end of the RS232 serial cable to a Serial (COM) Port on the PC.
ROM for additional information on using the Keil 8051 tools with the Silicon Laboratories IDE. To build an absolute object file using the Silicon Laboratories IDE project manager, you must first create a project. A project consists of a set of files, IDE configuration, debug views, and a target build configuration (list of files and tool configurations used as input to the assembler, compiler, and linker when building an output object file).

AN179 4.4.1. Creating a New Project 1. Select Project->New Project to open a new project and reset all configuration settings to default. 2. Select File->New File to open an editor window. Create your source file(s) and save the file(s) with a rec- ognized extension, such as .c, .h, or .asm, to enable color syntax highlighting.
(WDT), configuring the Port I/O crossbar, configuring a timer for an interrupt routine, initializing the system clock, and configuring a GPIO port. When compiled/assembled and linked this pro- gram flashes the green LED on the C8051F310 target board about five times a second using the interrupt handler with a C8051F310 timer.
AN179 6. Target Board The C8051F31x Development Kit includes a target board with a C8051F310 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 2 for the locations of the various I/O connectors.

Two LEDs are also provided on the target board. The red LED labeled PWR is used to indicate a power connection to the target board. The green LED labeled with a port pin name is connected to the C8051F310’s GPIO pin through jumpers.

6.3. Expansion I/O Connector (J1) The 34-pin Expansion I/O connector J1 provides access to all signal pins of the C8051F310 device. Pins for +3 V, digital ground and the output of an on-board low-pass filter are also available. A small through-hole prototyping area is also provided.

A RS232 transceiver circuit and DB-9 (J5) connector are provided on the target board to facilitate serial connec- tions to UART0 of the C8051F310. The TX, RX, RTS and CTS signals of UART0 may be connected to the DB-9 connector and transceiver by installing shorting blocks on jumpers J3.
10-pin connector on the Serial Adapter labeled “JTAG”, see Figure 3. (The Serial Adapter supports both Silicon Laboratories JTAG and C2 debug interfaces.). All Serial Adapters may be powered from the target board, but the EC1 and EC2 Serial Adapter units cannot provide power to the target board. Table 5 shows the pin definitions for the Serial Adapter’s JTAG connector.
Silicon Laboratories products are not designed, intended, or authorized for use in applications intended to support or sustain life, or for any other application in which the failure of the Silicon Laboratories product could create a situation where per- sonal injury or death may occur.
