his chapter describes the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C modules. See Appendix A, ""
for the mechanical specifications and electrical characteristics of the modules.
Module layout
..................................................................................
The module design you use depends on whether you want to use the ConnectCore
Wi-9C wireless capabilities. The basic footprint for the ConnectCore 9C and
ConnectCore Wi-9C is the same; an extension of the footprint provides the active
components and antenna connectors for wireless functionality.

options). The U.FL connectors are located in the same positions as the RP-SMA
connectors, but do not extend past the edge of the module.
Ethernet connector
..................................................................................
The Ethernet connector is an 8-wire RJ-45 jack with integrated magnetics that
meets the ISO 8877 requirements for 10/100BASE-T. The connector provides both
Ethernet interface pins (in the upper portion) and two integrated LEDs (in the lower
portion).
Ethernet port
There are eight Ethernet connector pins in the upper portion of the connector. Pin 1
is in the upper left corner of the connector, above the yellow LED. Pins 4, 5, 7, and
8 are used with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) only (see “802.3af Power over Ethernet
(PoE) pass-through connector, P5” on page 13).

The PoE pass-through connector, P5, mates with the P20 header on the development
board. This PoE pass-through feature passes PoE power connections from the
Ethernet signal cable to the user’s equipment through P5. The PoE feature provides
a power source for compliant “powered” equipment, and is nominally 48VDC with a
possible 30–57VDC 13 W maximum range.

..................................................................................
By default, the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C modules use the CR1 and CR2 LEDs as
described:
ConnectCore Wi-9C module: To indicate WLAN-related information, such as
association status and network activity.
ConnectCore 9C and Wi-9C modules: CR1 will flash a repeating blink pattern
in a major system failure; for example, a processor exception or Power on Self
Test failure.
The ConnectCore Wi-9C LED assignments can be reassigned; that is, you can use
different GPIOs to drive CR1/CR2 LEDs.

JTAG 20-pin header connector, P2
..................................................................................
The JTAG connector is a standard, male, ARM 20-pin pinout in a miniature
connector, with a 50-mil pitch. A JTAG adapter, which ships with each Jump Start
kit, expands the JTAG connector to a 100 mil pitch. Use the included JTAG adapter
to connect the debugger.
The JTAG connector on the module is keyed, as are the two connectors on the JTAG
adapter, which means there is only one way to attach ribbon cables to the module
and JTAG adapter. For details, see “JTAG adapter assembly” on page 16.

JTAG adapter assembly
..................................................................................
Use the JTAG adapter assembly, shipped with the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C Jump Start
Kit, to attach your debugger to the module. The JTAG adapter assembly consists of
the Digi JTAG Link USB debugger with a ribbon cable attached and the JTAG adapter
with a ribbon cable attached. The Jump Start Kit also includes a USB cable.
The two connectors on the JTAG adapter are keyed, as is the JTAG connector
header (P2) on the module. Keyed connectors eliminate cable attachment errors by
ensuring that there is only one way to mate the connectors.
JTAG adapter
The JTAG adapter has two 20-pin connectors, P1 and P2.
P1 is a keyed male connector into which you attach the debugger’s ribbon
cable.
P2 is a keyed male connector into which you attach the ribbon cable that plugs
into the module.
J1 is a jumper that determines the mode in which the module operates: debug
or boundary scan. Depending on the JTAG adaptor you are using, J1 has either
two pins or three pins.
This drawing shows the JTAG adapter with a 2pin J1 header.
For debug mode — Do not plug a jumper onto J1.
For boundary scan mode — Plug a jumper onto
J1.

This drawing shows the JTAG adapter with a 3pin J1 header. The pin positions for debug and
boundary scan are shown in the lower right of
the drawing:
For debug mode — Plug a jumper on pins 1 and
2.
For boundary scan mode (the default) — Plug a
jumper on pins 2 and 3.

USB Host connector, P6
..................................................................................
When populated, the USB Host connector is on the same side of the module as the
Ethernet connector, separated from the Ethernet connector by CR1 and CR2.
USB Host port, P6
See “USB interface” on page 68 for information about the USB interface.
Edge connector, P3
..................................................................................
The edge connector is a 144-pin SO-DIMM connector located on the short edge of
the module. P3 mates with P15 (also a 144-position SO-DIMM connector) on the
development board or an SO-DIMM connector on your design.
SO-DIMM edge connector, P3
Note:
Pin assignment
The clearance underneath the module and development board should be
2.54mm (0.10”).
The next tables show information for all pins on the edge connector, in DIMM pin
order. For additional SO-DIMM pin characteristics, see "Module / SO-DIMM signal
characteristics," beginning on page 70.
Some signals are multiplexed to two different GPIO pins, to maximize the
number of possible applications. The primary/duplicate signals are noted in

the Notes column in the table. Using the primary GPIO pin and the duplicate
pin for the same function is not recommended.
Note: Functions in parentheses are duplicates; for example, pin 63 has two
entries in the LCD column: CLD6 and (CLD10). CLD10 is a duplicate signal for
pin 63; the Notes column identifies the primary function for that signal.
A # next to a signal indicates that this signal is active low.
A bold value in the System / Other / Bootstrap column indicates the bootstrap
signal.

Processors” (available on http://www.digiembedded.com) for additional
information about the application-specific configuration and capabilities of the LCD
controller on the ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C module.
LCD displays
..................................................................................
There are seven categories of LCD displays, all of which the module supports:
Color TFT (thin film transistor, also called active matrix (AM)):
–
18-bit
Six types of STN (super twisted nematic, also called passive matrix (PM)):
–
Three single panel displays
–
Three dual panel displays
Each STN display is either color or monochrome:
Control and data
pins
–
Color display: Up to 8-pin using color-enhancing palette RAM
–
Monochrome display: Up to 8-pin or 4-pin using grayscale-enhancing palette
RAM
The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C LCD interface has six control pins. The number of data
pins depends on the display type. Displays typically require 4–6 control pins. The
next two tables list the control pins and the data pins, respectively.

Sample applications

.....
LCD AND USB CONFIGURATION
ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C uses an internal programmable palette-LUT and a grayscaler
to support different color-processing techniques; three sample displays are
provided here:
18-pin TFT display (for example, the SHARP LQ10D421). Accepts 18 color RGB
bits (6 bits per color) at a time. Only 16 bits are transferred from SDRAM: five
bits each for the three colors — R (red), G (green), and B (blue) — and a single
LSB (least significant bit) that is split into three equal values between R, G,
and B. This produces close to 216, or 64 thousand colors.
8-pin STN color display (for example, the SHARP LM057QC1T01). Shifts eight
color bits at a time: RGBRGBRG bits followed by BRGBRGBR bits followed by
GBRGBRGB, and so on. This produces color enhancing in 3375 color grades.
4-pin STN monochrome display (for example, the Grand Pacific
Optoelectronics GM0008-13). Shifts four monochrome bits at a time, resulting
in 15 gray shades (24 – 1).
Resolution
The LCD resolution is programmable. These standard displays, with the following
resolutions, are supported:
QVGA = 320 x 240
VGA = 640 x 480
Lower resolution displays also are supported. Displays typically have programmable
vertical resolutions within a certain range, especially if they are used for TV
displays (to accommodate different television standards).
Refresh frequency
The LCD refresh frequency is programmable. Lower refresh frequency drains less
power, but might flicker. TFT displays usually flicker less than STN displays, as they
have a transistor switch behind each pixel on the screen and can hold the capacitive
charge longer.
Sample applications
..................................................................................
The LCD interface uses memory as a video buffer. The display resolution is
determined by the product of three parameters: number of data bits x display
resolution x refresh frequency. This product cannot exceed the system bus
bandwidth allocated to the display.
Be aware that the actual bandwidth used by the display is:
display clock rate x number of bits per clock
For example, a clock rate of 50MHz with 16 bits of color yields a bandwidth of 100
MBps. To minimize bandwidth requirements, you might need to use an external
oscillator to get the exact rate.
www.digiembedded.com
61
4
LCD AND USB CONFIGURATION
Sample applications
The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C development board has a 48MHz external oscillator and
resulting LCD clock of 24MHz. 16 bits of color requires 48 MBps for the display.
Default LCD
controller
The default LCD controller configuration supported by the NS9360 is 640 x 480, with
8 bits for color. The bandwidth is guaranteed; the designer does not need to be
concerned with bandwidth use. Higher resolutions are possible but require care in
their setup and design.
Formula
The ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C module operates at 155 MHz system bus speed. This
speed grade results in 310 MBps bus bandwidth, as the bus is 4 bytes wide. For
bandwidth planning, this maximum bandwidth must be reduced to account for
overhead and read/write switching. The effective bandwidth is 1/2 of the system
bandwidth; that is, 155 MBps. This value is predicted as the worst case for the
ConnectCore 9C/Wi-9C. The architecture allocates half of the system bandwidth to
the module. The remaining four bus master peripherals (Ethernet TX, Ethernet RX,
peripheral bus bridge, and LCD controller) share the other half of the bandwidth.
The bandwidth assignment of these peripherals is programmable.
Use this formula to estimate the amount of bandwidth available for your LCD
display:
CPU bandwidth = 77.5 MBps
All other peripherals (including LCD) = 77.5 MBps
Example 1: 18-bit
VGA
The 18-bit TFT display transfers 16 bits per pixel and generates the last two bits
inside the LCD controller. This display packs two-color RGB pixels into a single 4byte word.
The 18-bit VGA display (640 x 480), refreshing 60 times per second, requires 37
MBps:
2 x 640 x 480 x 60 = 37 MBps
40.5 MBps are left to all other peripherals. If the LCD refresh frequency increases to
70 Hz, the required bandwidth increases to 43 MBps.

USB interface
..................................................................................
USB Host
The USB Host consists of a USB Host controller that conforms to the Open Host
Controller Interface (OHCI) specification and a wrapper to interface the module to
the rest of the system. The USB Host interfaces to the internal USB PHY provided by
the NS9360, and is connected to an optional hub on the module.)
USB Device
The USB Device module provides a USB 2.0-compliant interface for both full-speed
(12Mbps) and low-speed (1.5 Mbps) operation. The module supports one
bidirectional endpoint and up to 10 unidirectional endpoints that can be individually
programmed for endpoint type (interrupt, bulk, or isochronous) and direction. Each
endpoint is assigned to a DMA channel in a multi-channel BBus DMA controller. The
USB Device module interfaces to either the internal NS9360 USB PHY or an external
USB PHY using GPIO.
Support
Both USB Host and Device can be supported at the same time:
USB Device, in this case, must use the only the signals shown in the table in the
section "USB Device only," beginning on page 69.
USB Host can be on the module or external to the module. If USB Host is
external to the module, use only the signals shown in the table in the section
"No USB on module," beginning on page 68.
Note:
USB Host with
hub on module
No USB on
module
All output drivers for USB meet the standard USB driver specifications.
Connect up to two ports using the dual USB connector, P6.
All hub signals out to the SO-DIMM edge connector, P3, are reserved for future
use.
USB data lines are brought out on DM1 and DP1.
–
Terminate DM1 and DP1 with 15K pulldowns, if not used.
OVR1# and PON1# are multiplexed with GPIO16 and GPIO17.

Never install an Ethernet connection in wet locations unless that connector is
specifically designed for wet locations.
Use caution when installing or modifying Ethernet lines.
Use a screwdriver and other tools with insulated handles.
You and those around you should wear safety glasses or goggles.
Do not place Ethernet wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet or junction
box containing electrical wiring.
Installation of inside wiring may bring you close to electrical wire, conduit,
terminals and other electrical facilities. Extreme caution must be used to avoid
electrical shock from such facilities. You must avoid contact with all such
facilities.

MODULE SPECIFICATIONS
Ethernet wiring must be at least 6 feet from bare power wiring or lightning
rods and associated wires, and at least 6 inches from other wire (antenna
wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers to neon signs), steam or hot
water pipes, and heating ducts.
Do not place an Ethernet connection where it would allow a person to use an
Ethernet device while in a bathtub, shower, swimming pool, or similar
hazardous location.
Protectors and grounding wire placed by the service provider must not be
connected to, removed, or modified by the customer.
Do not touch uninsulated Ethernet wiring if lightning is likely!
Do not touch or move the antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very
close to or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes,
while transmitting.
Do not operate a portable transmitter near unshielded blasting caps or in an
explosive environment unless it is a type especially qualified for such use.
Any external communications wiring you may install needs to be constructed to all
relevant electrical codes. In the United States this is the National Electrical Code
Article 800. Contact a licensed electrician for details.
