  • Page 19: Chapter 2: Programming Considerations

    Programming Considerations This chapter discusses programming consideration for the Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP and the NS7520 processor it is based on. GPIO General Information The NS7520 processor supports 16 general purpose I/O (GPIO) pins, some of which are reserved for specific functions and some of which can be customized.
  • Page 20 G P I O GPIO Registers Two registers, named PORTA and PORTC, govern the 16 GPIO pins. Each register is responsible for eight pins, and each GPIO pin uses the following four bits to completely describe its behavior: Mode (CMODE) Direction (CDIR) Special function (CSF).

    GPIO Pin Use GPIO Pin Use External Register Bit Category Description Interface PORTA7 - PORTA0 Reserved PORTC7 Reserved Used as a power indicator (always on). It could be reassigned as a general purpose LED. It Connected to the PORTC6 Allocated must remain a GPIO output for the LED to red LED operate correctly.

    Flash General Information Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP device servers each have 4 MB of flash memory, which is controlled by chip select 0, located at 0x02000000. Memory Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP device servers each have 16 MB of SDRAM memory, which is controlled by chip select 1, located at 0x00000000 in the processor address space and aliased at 0x04000000 and 0x08000000.
  • Page 23: Reset Button

    Reset Button The device servers have a push button connected to a GPIO pin. This pin is named "/INIT." In the processor, the GPIO register bit associated with "/INIT" is PORTC5. The GPIO pin will read as high normally, and low when the button is pushed. See "Reset Button"...
