7. Using the Si1000 Motherboard with the Wireless Development Suite
The Si1000 motherboard is supported by the Wireless Development Suite. Some features of the Wireless
Development Suite will be disabled when connected to an Si1000 motherboard. See the Wireless Development
Suite documentation for details. When using the Wireless Development Suite, the following configurations are
required:
J18 - shorting blocks should be closed if using an Si1000/1/2/3/4/5 device and open otherwise.
J19 - shorting blocks should be closed if using an Si1010/1/2/3/4/5 device and open otherwise.
J20 - shorting blocks should be closed
J12 - 3 shorting blocks (closest to USB connector) should be closed to enable UART communication.
Firmware is currently in development to allow the Si10xx daughtercards to connect to the Wireless Development
Suite through the Si1000 Motherboard.
8. Using Si10xx Daughtercards with the Wireless Development Suite
To enable all the features of the Wireless Development Suite, the Si10xx daughtercards may be used directly with
wireless development suite, without an Si1000 motherboard. The Si10xx daughtercards must be programmed with
"pass-through" firmware to make them appear as fixed-function, stand-alone EZRadioPRO devices such as the
Si4430/1/2/3. An SDBC-DK3 development kit is required to connect to the Wireless Development Suite in this
mode.
To program the Si10xx daughtercards for this mode, download the following hex file to the daughtercard:
For Si100x daughtercards:
C:\Silabs\MCU\Examples\Si100x\EZRadioPRO\SPI_PassThrough\SPI_PassThrough.hex
For Si101x daughtercards:
C:\Silabs\MCU\Examples\Si101x\EZRadioPRO\SPI_PassThrough\SPI_PassThrough.hex
After the "pass-through" code is downloaded to the daughtercard, it may be used as a standard daughercard for
the SDBC-DK3 development kit. See the SDBC-DK3 documentation for more details.
9. Using the Si1000 Motherboard with a CP240x LCD Development Board
The Si1000 motherboard supports the CP2400 and CP2401 development boards for developing LCD applications.
When using an LCD development board, the following configurations are required:
J18 - shorting blocks should be closed if using an Si1000/1/2/3/4/5 device and open otherwise.
J19 - shorting blocks should be closed if using an Si1010/1/2/3/4/5 device and open otherwise.
J20 - shorting blocks should be open
When a CP240x development board is connected to the Si1000 motherboard, the Port I/O usage matrix shown in
Figure 7 should be used for software development.
