12. What is Pmod?
The peripheral module or Pmod interface is an open standard defined by Digilent Inc. in the Digilent Pmod
interface specification for peripherals used with FPGAs or microcontrollers. Several module types are available –
from simple push buttons to more complex modules with network interfaces, analog to digital converters, or LCD
displays. Peripherals compatible with Pmod are available from multiple vendors such as Diligent, Maxim
Integrated, Analog Devices, and a variety of hobby sites. This kit supports only 1 × 6 pin interface compatible with
Pmod.
13. What type of shield from Infineon is compatible with this baseboard?
Any shield compatible with Arduino Uno that supports 3.3-V operation is compatible with this Pioneer Board. The
following Infineon shields are pin-compatible with this board:
•
CY3280-MBR3
•
CY8CKIT-022
•
CY8CKIT-024
•
CY8CKIT-026
•
CY8CKIT-040
•
CY8CKIT-046
•
CY8CKIT-048
14. Why am I not able to program PSoC™ 6 MCU using MiniProg4 at 1.8 V?
The "program/debug overvoltage protection" circuit shown in
debug header (J11)"
on page 47 does not allow programming of the device at 1.8 V through MiniProg4. If you
want to program the PSoC™ 6 MCU using MiniProg4 at the 1.8-V condition, make sure you are populating the 0-
ohm resistor at R196 on the board. This resistor will bypass the protection circuit and will allow programming of
the device at 1.8 V. Make sure you are not populating this resistor at any other voltage of operation.
15. How can SW2 be used for PMIC wakeup?
SW2 is connected to the PMIC_Wakeup_In pin (P0.4) of the PSoC™ 6 MCU. A logic HIGH input at the
PMIC_Wakeup_In pin can wake up the system and enable the PMIC. See the "Backup" chapter in
architecture reference manual
SW2 should be externally pulled down to ground to use PMIC control. Moreover, when the switch is pressed, the
active HIGH logic should push P0.4 to the VBACKUP supply. However, the kit is configured by default to use active
LOW logic as described in
HIGH logic for SW2 pushes P0.4 to VBACKUP. Therefore, the following re-works on the kit are required to use the
PMIC control feature:
•
Remove R65 and populate the 0-Ω resistor R66.
•
Remove R67 and populate a 10-kΩ resistor at R68.
16. Can I charge any kind of Type-C device using this kit?
The kit is programmed to advertise the VIN voltage with 1 A current rating. 5-V and 12-V devices are the
recommended options. VIN needs to be 5 V and 12 V respectively for this to work
