Serial Interfaces
The demo board has RS-232/422/485 transceivers, one per port. However, note that
only Serial Port 1 supports RS232/RS422/485 on MatchPort AR. The table below
lists the RS232 signals and corresponding pins on the demo board. All signals are
level-shifted by the transceivers.
Power Supply
The demo board uses an external 3.3V regulated supply (included with kit).
General Control
The following tables denote the configuration of the demo board. Configuring the
jumpers re-routes signals on the demo board to drive LEDs (general purpose
outputs), to use as Serial control signals, or to connect to other places on target
board as General Purpose IO (GPIO).
