2. Hardware Setup
See Figure 1 for a diagram of the hardware configuration.
1. Attach the daughter board to the motherboard at connectors P1 and P2.
2. Place shorting blocks on J7 and J3 [+3VD, VDD_PWR], as shown in Figure 1.
3. Connect the motherboard's P5 USB connector to a PC using the USB Cable.
4. Connect the ac-to-dc power adapter to connector P3 on the motherboard.
Notes:
1. Use the Reset icon in the IDE to reset the target when connected during a debug session.
2. Remove power from the motherboard and remove the USB cable before removing a daughter board from the
motherboard. Connecting or disconnecting a daughter board when the power adapter or USB cable are connected can
damage the motherboard or the daughter board.

    CP2501-DK 3. Software Installation The included CD-ROM contains the Silicon Labs Integrated Development Environment (IDE), 8051 evaluation toolset, optional software utilities, and additional documentation. Insert the CD-ROM into your PC’s CD-ROM drive. An installer will automatically launch, allowing you to install the IDE software or read documentation by clicking buttons on the Installation Panel.
  • Page 4 CP2501-DK 4.2. Silicon Labs IDE The Silicon Labs IDE integrates a source-code editor, source-level debugger and in-system programmer. The following sections discuss how to open an example project in the IDE, build the source code, and download it to the target device.
  • Page 5 CP2501-DK 4.3. CP250x Configuration Wizard The CP250x Configuration Wizard generates the initial firmware project for CP250x devices based on the user’s system requirements. Code is generated through the use of dialog boxes as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. CP250x Configuration Wizard The CP250x Configuration Wizard utility helps accelerate development by automatically generating initialization source code to configure and enable the on-chip resources needed by most design projects.
  • Page 6: Development Boards

    CP2501-DK 5. Development Boards The CP2501 Development Kit includes a motherboard that interfaces to a daughter board. The CP2501 Development Daughter Board contains a CP2501 device to be used for preliminary software development. Numerous input/output (I/O) connections are provided on the motherboard to facilitate prototyping. Figure 3 shows the CP250x Motherboard and indicates locations for various I/O connectors and shows the factory default shorting block positions.
