    VGA video and keyboard interfaces. Alternatively, you can typically write and debug code on a host PC using standard development tools for the PC platform, then simply copy it to and run it on the TS-5700 without modification. If additional peripherals are required, the PC/104 expansion bus allows for many standard functions available off-the-shelf.

  • Page 7: Pc Compatibility

    The TS-5700 is shipped, free of charge, with Embedded DOS ROM by General Software. The TS-5700 can be shipped upon request with Linux pre-installed for a nominal fee. The Linux file system and kernel is also freely available on the web should you wish to install it yourself. Typically, the Linux OS requires a 16MB or larger Compact Flash or an M-System's DiskOnChip.

  • Page 8: Power

    3. Power The TS-5700 requires regulated 5VDC at 800 mA (typical maximum). When running the Linux OS, it will drop to about 300 mA during low usage. A quick release screw-down terminal block for the 5V power and power GND connections is provided for easy connection to an external power supply.

  • Page 9: Memory

    4.2 Flash There is a total of 2 MB of Flash memory on the TS-5700 with 128 KB reserved for the BIOS. During POST, this 128 KB area is copied from Flash into SDRAM at addresses E0000h through FFFFFh for improved performance (a standard technique known as BIOS Shadowing).

    RS-232 device. The COM1 RS-232 serial port has 4 signals supported: RXD, TXD, RTS and CTS. This is quite sufficient to interface with the vast majority of serial devices. The TS-5700 COM ports are accessible on two 10-pin Headers labeled COM1 and COM2. Adaptor cables are available to convert these into standard 9-pin Sub-D male connectors.
  • Page 12 7 signals supported: RXD, TXD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, and DCD. These ports can interface to almost any RS-232 device. The TS-5700 COM ports are accessible on two 10-pin Headers labeled COM3 and COM4. Adaptor cables are available to convert these into standard 9-pin Sub-D male connectors. See section 5.6 for COM3, COM4 interrupt configuration.

    COM I/O locations. Because DOS only directly supports four serial ports, any additional ports beyond four will require software drivers if using DOS. The TS-5700 PC/104 bus has IRQ 7, 9, 12 or 15 available for additional serial ports. Note: IRQ7 is used by many PCMCIA cards.

  • Page 15: Digital I/O

    6 Digital I/O There are 23 Digital Input/Output (DIO) lines available on the TS-5700. These are available on two headers labeled DIO and LCD. In addition to the DIO signals, each header also has 5 Volt power and Ground available, while the DIO header has an external reset available on pin 12 and IRQ6 in available on pin 13.

  • Page 16: Using Lcd Port As Digital I/O

    TS-5700 User's Manual Technologic Systems http://embeddedARM.com/ 6.2 Using LCD Port as Digital I/O The LCD Port can be used as 11 additional digital I/O lines or it can be used to interface Table 6.2 Pinout for LCD to a standard alphanumeric LCD display. At system reset, the port defaults to DIO header when used as DIO mode.

  • Page 17: Lcd Interface

    7 LCD Interface Table 7a LCD Header A 14-pin LCD connector is provided on the TS-5700 for interfacing with standard Pinout alphanumeric LCD displays. These displays use a common controller, the Hitachi HD44780 or equivalent. While software written for the HD44780 will work with all displays using the 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 controller, the cable needed is dependent on the display used.

  • Page 18: Matrix Keypad Support

    A matrix keypad can be used with console redirection only if the keypad is not used as stdin, but read from as a hardware device. This is useful if one wishes to use console redirection or to use a keyboard as stdin. Section 18 for an explanation of console I/O and redirection. See the Technologic Systems download page for example code. ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-x86-sbc/old-downloads/ When using a matrix keypad, the DIO signals DIO_0 through DIO_7 are not available as general I/O.

    (Amber). The physical interface is 10/100Base-T (RJ45 connector). The TS-5700 has both a LINK/ACTIVITY LED and a 10/100 speed LED built into each RJ-45 connector that indicates the current Ethernet status. The LINK LED (left side of connector, green) is active when a valid Ethernet link is detected.

    9.1 LINUX TCP/IP configuration When using the TS-5700 with TS-Linux, the DM9102A driver can be included in the kernel or loaded as a kernel module. If the Technologic Systems kernel is used, the DM9102A driver is built into the kernel. The settings stored in EEPROM on the TS-5700 are used to configure the DM9102A.

    Header pin-outs. Additional off-board chips may be added to SPI CLK (out) the SPI bus. Warning: The TS-5700 has an eeprom using the SPI bus running at 3.3V and is not 5V tolerant. This means that any devices that are added to the SPI SPI Data (in) bus must not drive the SPI data input (pin 5) any higher than 3.3V.

    RTC feature is necessary. The TS-5700 internal RTC is capable of generating a square wave output function with a period of 500 mSec to 122 uSec. The TS-5620 RTC does not have access to IRQ8 and can not implement this function. The internal RTC square wave output pin is connected to IRQ8 on the processor, and can be used to generate periodic interrupts.

    The TS-9500 peripheral board provides full VGA video, keyboard, and mouse interfaces necessary to work within most environments. It also has a Compact Flash card that can be used even if the TS-5700 is using a Compact Flash card as well. You can transfer your development tools (e.g. Turbo C) onto the TS-9500 Compact Flash card.
