    UART/RS-232/RS-485 RS-232 and RS-485 standards are supported on the ConnectCore MP13 Development Board, by sharing one CPU UART port (UART7). This means that only one of the two protocols can be use at a time. Selection between both is done through three three-position headers (J15, J16 and J17).

    Electrical specification Supply voltages The ConnectCore MP13 Development Board has three supply inputs. Two of them power the whole system (ConnectCore MP13 Development Board plus the ConnectCore MP13 system-on-module) and the other one powers the RTC of the module when the main supply is not present. The following table...
  • Page 22: Appendix A - Eth2 Interface Correction

    The strategy Digi follows to clock the 10/100 MB PHY is to use a TTL clock from the MAC (CPU), instead of using an external crystal. The PHY input pin for the reference clock is XTAL1/CLKIN (pin 5). This pin is currently connected to pad D11 of the SOM, which corresponds to thePH11 pin of the CPU.
