Recommended Hardware

Example Applications

2.1 Recommended Hardware
This application may be evaluated using the Slicekit Modular Development Platform,
available from digikey. Required board SKUs are:
XP-SKC-L2 (Slicekit L2 Core Board) plus XA-SK-GPIO plus XA-SK-XTAG2 (Slicekit
XTAG adaptor) plus XTAG2 (debug adaptor),
2.2 Example Applications

2.2.1 app_slicekit_simple_demo

This application has the following features:
module_i2c_master from the xSOFt ip library is used to access the external ADC,
which is equipped with an external linearised thermistor circuit for temperature
sensing.
simple code to print the recorded temperature to the XDE debug console on the
press of one of the Slice Card buttons
simple code to cycle through the 4 LEDs each time the other button is pressed.
demonstrates use of XC select statements for handling multiple concurrent
inputs
demonstrates basic usage of XCore ports

2.2.2 app_slicekit_com_demo

This application extends the simple demo to provides the following functionality
(all options are dynamically reconfigurable via the APIs for app_slicekit_com_demo
application):
REV A
Baud Rate: 150 to 115200 bps
Parity: None, Mark, Space, Odd, Even
Stop Bits: 1,2
Data Length: 1 to 30 bits (Max 30 bits assumes 1 stop bit and no parity)
