  Introduction  The M5208EVB is a convenient platform for evaluating many of the capabilities of the MCF5208 MPU. It offers a head start in terms of hardware development around this MPU.  The software packages that accompany this evaluation board provide a head start in terms of software development.  The MC5208 is a highly configurable MPU. While the M5208EVB does not make it possible to explore all the configuration possibilities of this MPU, it does provide a fair amount of functionality. This is further supplemented by the inclusion of a ZigBee capable transceiver, as shown in Figure 1.  With a 10/100 Ethernet controller and the ability to interface to up to 256MB (not Mb) of fast DDR SDRAM, the MCF5208 can support large operating systems and open up new software opportunities. To demonstrate this, the M5208EVB is shipped with uClinux and sample web pages pre-installed, allowing it to serve web pages “right out of the box”.  M5208EVBUM.pdf 1  1-Sep-5

  M5208EVB Modules  The M5208EVB is made up of modules. Some modules correspond to on-chip ColdFire peripherals. Other modules correspond to on-board peripherals and added features. These modules are: •  Power System – +7-14VDC input, regulated on board to provide necessary processor and peripheral voltages •  Reset Control circuitry and reset configuration switches •  Clock selection circuitry for on-board crystal, on-board oscillator or external oscillator •  Serial module – 2 level translated serial ports •  Background Debug Mode (BDM) port •  I/O Header providing access to several MCF5208 signals for off board use •  DMA Timer module •  Interrupt Request Subsystem (IRQ) •  QSPI module •  I2C module •  Memory – 2MB external flash, 32 MB external DDR SDRAM and a foot print for a 128KB external SRAM •  WatchDog Timer (WDT) module •  Ethernet, PHY and RJ45 connector •  ZigBee capable transceiver •  Resident firmware (dBUG monitor)  •  Operating System (uClinux)  Some of these features are associated with connectors as shown Figure 1. This adds up to a rich assortment of features.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 3  1-Sep-5
  Power System  The center positive 5.5/2.1mm power jack for the M5208EVB accepts inputs ranging from +7V to +14V DC, capable of at least 3 watts.  A slider switch connects the power to the board. When this switch is in the ON position power is connected to the board; otherwise all circuits on the board are isolated from the input power. A resettable Polyswitch fuse protects the power supply against a short on the board. Two green LEDs between the power connector and power switch indicate when the board is powered. The location of these indicators is shown in Figure 2.   Figure 2: M5208EVB Power   Power Switch Power Connector Power Indicators Table 2: M5208EVB Voltage Levels Voltage  Max Current  Signal Name  Description 3.3V 1A  EVDD External I/O supply voltage. 2.5V  500mA  SDVDD  External Bus supply voltage.

  Each supply voltage can be measured at a labeled test point on the M5208EVBand Ground can be accessed at 2 test clips and one test point as shown in Figure 3.   Power Jumpers Several jumpers make it possible to measure the current draw to the various MCF5208 processor power inputs or to isolate them from the power supplies. These jumpers are listed in Table 3.  Figure 4: Power Jumpers  Power Jumpers  Table 3: Power Jumper Descriptions JP7  ON    Connect Core, PLL filter to 1.5V    OFF    Disconnect Core, PLL filter from 1.5V JP8  ON    Connect Core to 1.5V (w/ JP7 ON)    OFF    Disconnect Core from 1.5V JP9  ON    Connect MPU I/O rail to 3.3V    OFF    Disconnect MPU I/O rail from 3.3V JP10  ON    Connect External Bus to 2.5V    OFF    Disconnect External Bus from 2.5V  All the power jumpers are described in Appendix A and on Sheet 12 of the M5208EVB schematic.   Low Voltage Detection The ColdFire5208 processor does not have internal low-voltage detection circuitry to detect intermittent power levels. The voltage supervisor on the reset debounce circuit (Sheet 11 of the schematic) serves as a voltage supervisor that resets the processor if the external voltage (3.3V) drops below 3.15V.    WARNING:  To avoid damage to the M5208EVB, only attach a coaxial center positive (2.1 mm) plug. Draw from any power pin on a header to an external circuit, in excess of 100ma, may damage the board. M5208EVBUM.pdf 5  1-Sep-5
  Reset  There are 3 ways to reset the M5208EVB:  Power-on reset – accomplished by power cycling the board: switch the power switch to the OFF position then back to the ON position or remove and reconnect the power cable.  The contents of all volatile memory (iRAM and SDRAM) will be lost. External reset – asserted by pressing the Reset button or by issuing a reset command through the BDM pod using software on the PC.  The contents of volatile memory are preserved. Software reset – invoked with the ‘reset’ command to dBUG monitor, the ‘reboot’ command in uClinux, or by setting bit 7 in the RCR register (see MCF5208 Reference Manual, “Chapter 10 Reset Controller Module”). The contents of volatile memory are preserved. In all 3 cases, when the board is reset, all registers are reset to their default state. Figure 5: Reset Signal and Switch Locations  *RSTI test point*RCON Jumper (JP5) *RSTOUT test point   Reset button Power switch Reset LED *RCON Switch (SW1) Startup Configuration The MCF5208 configuration depends on 9 signals: *RCON, D9 and D[7:1] which are sampled when the MPU comes out of reset.  When *RCON is asserted (the shunt on JP5 is on), the MCF5208 reads its configuration options from the data signals which are driven high or low by the 8 rocker switches on SW1.  Configuration options are shown in Table 4. If *RCON is negated (JP5 OFF), the MCF5208 takes the default reset configuration values shown in Table 5.  M5208EVBUM.pdf 6  1-Sep-5

  Boot Select This jumper determines whether the dBUG monitor executes a program in flash, or, whether dBUG remains as the only active program. When the M5208EVB powers on, dBUG monitor immediately initializes the board. Then it looks to the BOOTSEL signal to determine its behavior. BOOTSEL is tied to JP3. If BOOTSEL is asserted (JP3 is ON) and the board’s Autorun parameter is set, then dBUG monitor will run the program it has saved in flash. By default this program is uClinux, but can be replaced with any user program. If BOOTSEL is negated (JP3 is OFF), then dBUG monitor will present the dBUG prompt at the console and await user input.  Figure 6 - Boot Select Jumper  BOOTSEL (JP3)  M5208EVBUM.pdf 8  1-Sep-5
  Clock Input There are 3 options for providing the clock input to the MCF5208. Table 6 shows valid combinations of settings for SW1-2, JP5, JP11 and JP12 to select the clock input (Figure 7), as shown in Table 6.  Figure 7: Clocking Selection  Clock Select Jumpers PLL Disable   Table 6: Clock Source Selection SW1-2  JP5  JP11  JP12  Clock Selection - OFF -  1-2 16MHz Crystal OFF ON  -  1-2 16MHz Crystal ON ON 1-2 2-3 16MHz Oscillator ON ON 1-2 2-3 External Oscillator  Warning! Using any combination of settings not included in this table can damage the PLL circuit on the MCF5208. Ensure that only these combinations are used when power is applied to the board.  M5208EVBUM.pdf 9  1-Sep-5
  Serial Ports The M5208EVB has two COM ports with RS232 level signals. They normally connect to a host PC.  Figure 8: M5208EVB Serial Ports  COM2 COM1  COM1 is specifically used for serial debugging a user program with the dBUG monitor or, for uClinux terminal.   COM2 is available for user I/O and for redirecting console I/O during a serial debugging session.  The female DB9 serial connectors have standard DCE pinouts and connect directly to a DTE device such as a PC. There are no hardware handshaking signals on COM1 or COM2. COM3 (UART2) signals are available on CN1. The Tx and Rx signals are multiplexed with TIN0 and TOUT2, respectively. See I/O Header and “Chapter 24: UART Module” of the MCF5208 Reference Manual for more details.   Serial Debugging Serial debugging requires the use of 2 COM ports if the user program contains any console I/O (i.e. printf or getc).  This is because the serial dBUG monitor ties up COM1and console I/O is typically redirected to COM2.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 10  1-Sep-5
  BDM/JTAG Port While serial debugging using the on-board dBUG monitor is adequate for many applications, Background Debug Mode (BDM) debugging makes it possible for a BDM debugger to have total control of the processor, even after a program has crashed.  BDM debugging is able to monitor the processor status at any time, without interfering with the processor execution. If JTAG is enabled, the JTAG signals from the MCF5208 come out to the BDM header.  Figure 9: CN2 – BDM Port    Table 7: CN2 – BDM Port Signals Direction  Signal  Pins  Signal  Direction- - 1 2 *BKPT IN - GND 3 4 DSCLK IN - GND 5 6  TCLK IN IN *RSTI 7 8  DSI IN - 3V3 9 10 DSO OUT - GND 11 12 PST3 OUT OUT PST2 13 14 PST1 OUT OUT PST0 15 16 DDATA3 OUT OUT DDATA2 17 18 DDATA1 OUT OUT DDATA0 19 20 GND - - - 21 22 - - - GND 23 24 PSTCLK OUT - 1V5 25 26 *TA IN  Pin 25 on the BDM header is connected to 1V5 through JP2, which is fitted by default. This jumper is required for some of the legacy BDM pods that connect pins 9 & 25 of the BDM interface internally. More recent debug pods support both core & I/O voltages. The BDM pod supplied with the M5208EVB supports both voltages and requires JP2 to be fitted.  JTAG_EN J1 is a 2-position shorting pad for a 0 ohm 0603 resistor (Figure 10). By default pads 1-2 are shorted, enabling BDM mode on the processor. This configures all the signals on the BDM header, CN2, with their BDM functions as described in “Chapter 26 Debug Module” of the MCF5208 Reference Manual. In BDM M5208EVBUM.pdf 11  1-Sep-5
 mode, JP1 should be fitted across pins 1-2 to connect TCLK/PSTCLK, configured as PSTCLK, to pin 24 of CN2.  Figure 10: BDM – JTAG Set Up for BDM  Select BDM PSTCLK To CN2.24  The BDM header also serves as a port for JTAG signals if the 0 ohm resistor on J1 is soldered across pads 2-3. “Chapter 27 IEEE 1149.1 Test Access Port (JTAG)” of the MCF5208 Reference Manual describes the functions of the JTAG signals. In JTAG mode, JP1 should be fitted across pins 2-3 to connect TCLK/PSTCLK, configured as TCLK to pin 6 of CN2.   Figure 11: BDM – JTAG Set Up for JTAG  Select JTAG TCLK To CN2.24 M5208EVBUM.pdf 12  1-Sep-5
  I/O Header One header provides access to a number of the MCF5208’s signals. The location of CN1 is shown below in Figure 12. Figure 12: CN1 – I/O Header    CN1 is a 2x8 double row header that provides access to the DMA timer, QSPI, IRQ, and I2C signals. All these signals can also be configured as general purpose I/O. A mapping of these signals and their associated functions is shown in Table 8.

  DMA Timers There are 4 32-bit DMA Timers on the MCF5208. Each timer is associated with a single input capture (IC) signal and a single output compare (OC) signal. The two signals are multiplexed onto a single pin on the 196 MAPBGA package, so only one function, either DTnIN  or DTnOUT, can be enabled at a time.  The tic rate for each timer can be set, through its prescalar, to a frequency ranging from 20.26 KHz to 83 MHz. The timers can operate in a free-run mode where the timer counts up to 0xFF FF FF FF then wraps to 0, or they can run in restart mode where the timer will reset to 0 once the compare value is reached.  Each DMA Timer module can be configured to fire an interrupt when an input event (IC) or a reference compare match is detected (OC).  The DMA Timer pins are shown in blue on CN1 in Figure 13. They can be independently configured as GPI/O.  Configuring a pin for I/O will disable any timer functionality associated with the pin, but will not affect the timer itself.  Configuring a pin for its timer function will disable its GPI/O function.   When timer signals are configured as digital outputs or as timer outputs, they can be connected to LEDs through jumpers JP13 – JP16. These jumpers are shown in Figure 13.  As shown in Table 8, pins 3 – 6 on CN1 are the DMA Timer pins. A full description of the functions of these signals is in MCF5208 Reference Manual Ch. 22: DMA Timers.   Figure 13: DMA Timer LED Locations  GPIO/Timer LEDs  Timer Jumpers     M5208EVBUM.pdf 14  1-Sep-5
  IRQ The MCF5208 EPORT module has 3 signals (IRQ1, IRQ4 and IRQ7) that can be individually configured as digital inputs or outputs or they can be configured to be edge or level sensitive interrupt signals.  If a signal is configured for edge detection, it can detect on a rising edge, falling edge or both.  All IRQ pins are configured as digital input out of reset. *IRQ1 is used as in interrupt from the MC13192 ZigBee Capable Transceiver. IRQ7 is connected to the Abort button on the M5208EVB. When the board first starts up, the dBUG monitor configures *IRQ7 as a falling edge interrupt. This leaves *IRQ4 for user control.  The location of the Abort switch and *IRQ4 pin is shown in Figure 14. Figure 14: Abort Switch and *IRQ4 Locations   *IRQ4Abort Button Interrupt Level and Priority An understanding of the interrupt level and priority scheme on the MCF5208 can be helpful.  The MCF5208 has sources of interrupts. Each is assigned a number ranging from 1 for IRQ1 to 62 for buss error. These are hard wired. With the exception of the IRQ signals, each interrupt source (eg. source 4, PIT0/PCSR0[PIF] PIT interrupt flag) can be assigned an interrupt level, 1 being the lowest level, 7 being the highest (serviced first).  Any number of interrupts can be set to the same level. When multiple interrupts at the same level fire, they are processed in reverse order of their source number.  That is, the lowest source gets serviced last. And, the IRQ signals correspond to the lowest sources, as shown in Table 9.  Table 9: IRQ Pin Priority Signal Source/Priority*IRQ1  1 *IRQ4  2 *IRQ7  3  This interrupt scheme can have interesting side effects. For instance, in the [absurd] case where the Ethernet interrupts were set to level 7, the level 7 interrupt fired by pressing the Abort button would not be serviced until the CPU had finished servicing the Ethernet interrupts.  dBUG monitor sets the *IRQ7 level to level 7. Internal interrupt sources should not be set to level 7 or the Abort functionality of dBUG monitor will be compromised.  The MCF5208’s interrupt scheme is covered in great detail in Freescale’s MCF5208 Reference Manual Ch. 14 – Interrupt Controller Module and Ch. 15 – Edge Port Module.  M5208EVBUM.pdf 15  1-Sep-5
 Abort Button When this tactile switch is pressed, the *IRQ7 signal is asserted. When the M5208EVB is running under control of the dBUG monitor, a level 7 interrupt will be triggered. The dBug monitor will terminate the user program and the CPU context will be displayed on the host PC, followed by the dBug prompt. This assumes that the M5208EVB is connected serially to a host PC running a serial terminal program such as HyperTerminal. uClinux does not implement the abort functionality. However this button can be used as a general purpose input for user interaction with an application.  This signal is debounced and is held low for up to 700ms after the button is released.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 16  1-Sep-5
  QSPI The QSPI module allows high-speed serial communication with SPI devices such as a serial flash, real time clock, AtoD and DtoA converters, etc. Two QSPI chip select signals and the QSPI bus signals are available on pins 8 – 12 on CN1 (See I/O Header). A third QSPI chip select is used on-board to interact with the ZigBee capable transceiver. The QSPI signals are shown in blue in Figure 15. Figure 15: QSPI Signals on CN1   In addition to the QSPI function, these signals can be configured as GPIO through the GPIO module. See the MCF5208 Reference Manual Ch 13: General Purpose I/O Module for more information.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 17  1-Sep-5
  I2C The I2C module is 2-wire serial bus used for communication with I2C devices serial flash, real time clock, etc. The I2C signals, SDA and SCL are brought out to pins 13 and 14 on CN1. These signals are configured through the I2C module on the MCF5208.  These signals are shown in blue in Figure 16. Figure 16: I2C Signals on CN1   M5208EVBUM.pdf 18  1-Sep-5
  Memory and Storage The M5208EVB has 4 types of memory available to the user: •  16KB Internal (on-chip) SRAM •  128KB External SRAM (optional) •  32MB External DDR SDRAM •  2MB External Flash Figure 19 shows the memory mapping of these memory blocks. All the external memory devices run and interface at 2.5V. This allows a single bus to interface all devices without the need for buffers.   Internal SRAM The MCF5208’s 16KB on-chip SRAM is fast single-cycle memory making it ideal for the user program stack. dBUG monitor initially maps the internal SRAM to 0x80 00 00 00.   External SRAM Pads for a 2.5V 64K x 16-bit SRAM (IDT IDT71T016SA12PH) are located beneath the M5208EVB. This part can be attached for benchmarking purposes. It is driven by *FB_CS1.  External DDR SDRAM The M5208EVB has a fast 16M x 16-bit DDR SDRAM for both data storage and program execution.  Typically the user program is loaded from flash into SDRAM and run from SDRAM. The program can also be loaded through a serial port or Ethernet.  External Flash External flash consists of a 2MB Am29BDD160G. It is selected by *FB_CS0. This 2.5V flash is organized as 512K x 16-bits. It is made up of 8 x 8KB sectors, 30 x 64KB sectors and 8 x 8KB sectors. A sector is the smallest block of memory that can be erased.   The M5208EVB’s external flash is shipped pre-loaded with the dBug monitor, the uClinux kernel and uClinux services. On start up, the dBUG monitor is set up to check if there is an executable in flash. If so, it starts execution of this program, which, as shipped, would be uClinux. As shipped, the flash memory map looks like Figure 17. uClinux is the default user program shipped with the M5208EVB. A different user program may be saved into external flash using dBUG monitor at the expense of overwriting uClinux. However uClinux may be restored painlessly into external flash at anytime by reprogramming the m5208evb.s19 flash image with CFflasher. Getting a program to run under uClinux is done through the RC file, which is analogous to a DOS Autoexec.bat file.  M5208EVBUM.pdf 19  1-Sep-5
  Programming Flash A user program can be programmed into flash using several techniques. The dBUG monitor supports saving a program compiled to run from flash with the ‘dl’ command. See Appendix C - dBUG Monitor for a description of this and other useful dBUG commands.    Figure 17: 2MB Flash with uClinux (as Shipped)  dBUG monitor  0x00000000       :    0x0003FFFF uClinux JFFS2 File System  0x00040000 (on EVB as shipped)   :  0x000DFFFF Compressed uClinux kernel & services  0x000E0000 (linked for DDR SDRAM)   :    0x001FFFFF  dBUG monitor’s ‘dfl’ command allows the user to save an executable file to flash. In order to execute this file, dBUG first copies it to DRAM and then runs it from there. Consequently, the program must be linked to run out of DRAM. With this command, a flash program is stored at the top of flash, just below a 32-byte program information block which allows dBUG to find the code, come time to execute it.  The mapping of a user program in flash is shown in Figure 18.  The total space consumed by any program is the size of the program + 32 bytes rounded-up to the nearest 64K sector boundary.   Figure 18: 2MB Flash with User Program  dBUG monitor  0x00000000       :    0x0003FFFF Data storage  0x00040000   :  0x000(X-1)FFFF User Program  0x000X0000 (linked for DDR SDRAM)   :    0x001FFFDF Program Info Block  0x001FFFE0 (32 bytes)  0x001FFFFF  Running from Flash The ‘gfl’ command  will execute a program saved in external flash using the ‘dfl’ command. The program can also be run automatically when the board resets by setting the Autorun parameter to ON in dBUG.  If Autorun is set and JP1 is on, dBUG monitor will attempt to run a program in flash as directed by the program information block at the top of flash.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 20  1-Sep-5
 If Autorun has been set and the user wishes not to have the program run automatically, remove the jumper from JP1. Under this configuration, dBUG will always boot to the dBUG prompt. Table 10 shows the possible settings and their actions out of reset.   Because the program is copied to DRAM and executed from there, it must be linked for execution from DRAM. Table 10: dBUG Boot Configuration Action  JP3  Autorun Boot to dBUG>  OFF  - Boot to dBUG>  ON  OFF Autorun user program(typically uClinux)  ON ON  As shipped, the user program on the M5208EVB is uClinux. When JP1 is fitted, dBUG monitor will load uClinux into DDR SRAM and run it. uClinux can be configured to load a user program saved in the flash file system. “/etc/rc” is a script that is executed upon booting uClinux. This script should contain the path and name of the program to be run automatically. Initially, “/etc/rc” contains “/usr/interactive_demo” which serves a number of web pages including an interactive page that allows the user to interact with the 4 timer LEDs on the M5208EVB.    Memory Mapping The M5208EVB memory map is shown below in Figure 19.  Any memory access to a location not specified in Figure 19 is an undefined operation and may result in a bus access error and should be avoided.  This memory mapping is dependent on a user program being linked with the Intec memory mapping and using the dBUG monitor.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 21  1-Sep-5

  Watchdog Timer The MCF5208 has a Watchdog Timer (WDT) which can be used to reset the board in the event a program has entered an unexpected state.  When the watchdog timer is enabled, it must be serviced periodically to ensure that it does not time out and reset the MPU. Servicing consists of writing a 0x5555 and 0xAAAA sequence to the Watchdog Service Register. Once enabled, the watchdog timer cannot be disabled without resetting the MPU.   M5208EVBUM.pdf 23  1-Sep-5
  Ethernet The M5208EVB supports 10/100 Ethernet through a brand new, soon to be released PHY chip from National Semiconductor, the DP83848. It can auto-negotiate connection speed and can switch its Tx and Rx lines to suit the polarity of the connection (Auto-MDIX feature).  Crossover Ethernet cables are never required. The RJ45 connector has 2 LEDs which convey information, as summarized in Table 11.  Table 11: Ethernet Indicator LEDs LED  State Significance Speed On 100Mbps  Off 10Mbps Link/Traffic On Good link  Blink Traffic  Off No link    Figure 20: Ethernet Connector  Speed LED Link/Traffic LED National Semi DP83848 PHY   Advanced Users The Ethernet PHY chip on board is configured to support Auto-negotiation of 10 and 100 base-T speeds, full-duplex and half-duplex connections. The MII interface to the PHY chip is connected to the MCF5208 MII serial management allowing the MPU complete control over the PHY. The PHY has an address of 0x01. For further information about the PHY and its internal registers, see the National Semiconductor DP83848 PHY Data Sheet. The physical Ethernet interface (PHY) can be accessed under uClinux using a command line tool called “mii-tool”.    M5208EVBUM.pdf 24  1-Sep-5

TCLK is used when JTAG mode is enabled; PSTCLK is used when BDM mode is enabled. (see JTAG_EN).   JP2 – This jumper is required for some of the legacy BDM cables that connect pins 9 & 25 of the BDM interface internally. More recent cables support both core & I/O voltages. Please check with your BDM cable supplier. The BDM cable supplied with the M5208EVB supports both core and I/O voltages and requires JP5 to be fitted. M5208EVBUM.pdf  A - 2  1-Sep-05
JP3 – When fitted this jumper causes dBUG monitor to automatically load a program and run it. Typically this program is uClinux (as shipped). See Appendix C and the SBCTools Programmer Reference for more information on the Autorun feature of dBUG monitor. When this jumper is open, dBUG monitor will not run any user program and instead display the dBUG prompt on the terminal and wait for input.  JP4 – When fitted this jumper disables the factory test mode of the MCF5208. This jumper is normally always fitted.  JP5 – When fitted this jumper asserts the *RCON signal and causes the MCF5208 to load the CCR register based on the signals D9, D[7:1]. These signals are conditioned out of reset by the DIP switch. See the MCF5208 Reference Manual, (Ch 9 Chip Configuration Register) for more information on the reset configuration.  JP6 – This jumper selects between DDR and SDR mode for the SDRAM module. Should always be fitted to support DDR mode.  JP7 – When fitted connects 1.5V to the PLL filter and to JP8.  JP8 – When fitted connects the processor core voltage to 1.5V.  JP7 must also be fitted.

         Appendix C    dBUG Monitor M5208EVBUM.pdf C  1-Sep-5
dBUG Monitor  dBUG is a program that runs on the target SBC, that interacts serially with a console or debugger program on the PC. It also interacts with the user program that runs on the SBC. dBUG provides a mechanism for downloading, running and debugging programs without a BDM pod. It also stores board parameters (such as the IP address); handles user program boot-up; can handle user program interrupts, and can act as an interface for the user program’s console I/O.   Basic concepts The dBUG Monitor is a versatile program that carries out a number of services and can be used in different ways.  dBUG and Serial Console Program A developer can interact directly with dBUG through any serial console program such as HyperTerminal, using dBUG’s command line interface. That is, a developer can load, debug and run his program without the need of a specialized debug program. dBUG offers a rich assortment of commands, and, in fact, some commands can only be accessed through a console program. The full list of dBUG commands can be viewed by typing “Help” after the “dBUG>” prompt, when accessing the SBC through a serial console program.   dBUGmonitor.pdf C-1  5-Sep-05
 dBUG and Autorun On startup, dBUG checks if JP3 is installed and if it is, then dBUG attempts to boot a program stored in external flash.  A program can be stored into external flash by using the “dfl” or “dnfl” commands detailed below and in the dBUG user manual.  The World as Seen by dBUG  dBUG resides in the bottom 256K of the M5208EVB external flash. On startup, dBUG maps the 16MB SDRAM and accesses it as follows: •  It sets up (DDR) SDRAM from 0x40000000 to 0x41FFFFFF.  •  It uses the lower 128K of SDRAM, that is, 0x40000000 to 0x4001FFFF for its vector table, data and stack. Consequently this memory space is out of bounds to the user program.  •  It expects the user program to always start at 0x40020000 in SDRAM.   •  A user program can use the MCF5208’s on-chip SRAM for stack space, since it is very fast and dBUG does not use this memory.    Using dBUG  Setting dBug Parameters dBUG stores several parameters on the SBC that determine dBUG’s behaviour.  Resetting or repowering the board will not affect the values of these parameters: •  Base -The numeral base used by dBUG for entry and display of all numbers [16].   •  Baud - The baud rate shared by the SBC’s Primary and Secondary serial connection [115200].  Setting Board Parameters  dBUG stores several parameters on the SBC that determine the SBC’s behavior.  Resetting or repowering the board will not affect the values of these parameters. Some of these parameters are:  •  Watchdog - When On, the watchdog timer is left enabled on the MCF5208 and must be fed by the user program or the watchdog will reset the board after ~5 seconds.   •  Server - The IP address of a PC running a TFTP server.  This setting is used for network downloads.   •  Client - The IP address of the board. •  Gateway   -  The IP address of the gateway for the LAN that the board is connected to.   •  Netmask - The netmask of the LAN that the board is connected to.   •  DNS - The IP address of a DNS server, used for resolving a URL to IP address.   •  Ethaddr  -The MAC address.   dBUGmonitor.pdf C-2  5-Sep-05
The values of these parameters can be displayed on the console screen with the “show” command. Each value can be individually set using the “set” command.  The “set” command takes two parameters: the name of the parameter and the new value of the parameter.   Downloading Programs User programs can be downloaded to the M5208EVB via the serial connection or a network connection.   A serial download is done using the “dl” command.  The “dl” command puts the dBUG monitor into a state where it waits for an s-record download of the user program.  Using HyperTerminal, click on Transfer Æ Send Text File… and select the s-record to download.  dBUG stores the program starting at 0x40020000.   A network download is done using the “dn” command.  Before the “dn” command can be issued the dBUG parameters must be set correctly.  The necessary parameters are Server, Client, Gateway, Netmask, Filename, Filetype and Ethaddr.  Once these are set, issuing the “dn” command will download the specified file from the specified server IP address.    Programming Flash The “dfl” command is used to program the permanent storage on the M5208EVB.  This command behaves exactly like the “dl” command but adds the feature of saving the downloaded program to external flash.  For example, to save a program to the external flash, a user types “dfl” presses return, then transfer the s-record as with the “dl” command.    Running Programs A program is run using the “go” command with a start address (0x40020000) or the “gfl” command.  Programs compiled for dBUG should always start at address 0x40020000.  The “gfl” command will determine if a program is present in external flash, and then it will copy it to 0x40020000 in SDRAM and run it.    Killing Programs The “kfl” command will destroy a program stored in external flash.  If a valid program exists in the specified location, then it is marked as dead, and will not be run by either the Autorun feature or the gfl command.    dBUG Help More information can be found on dBUG by typing “help” at the command prompt.  The “help” command lists all the dBUG commands and a description of the syntax of the command.    dBUG Updates To update dBUG use either the dldbug command or the P&E background debug module (BDM) with the CFFlasher program.  The M5208EVB is shipped with a combined dBUG and uClinux image.  The factory image can be found on this CD under “Software\Firmware” directory m5208evb.s19. dBUGmonitor.pdf C-3  5-Sep-05

 Useful uClinux Commands  The following commands are widely used on all Linux based systems including uClinux.  These are just a summary of useful commands; more documentation can be found for each of these commands at http://man.linuxquestions.org.  Also typing “help” at the uClinux prompt “/>” will provide a complete listing of the command available.   File System Manipulation  •  ls – list directory contents •  cd – change directory •  mkdir – make directory •  rm – remove file •  rmdir – remove directory •  cp – copy a file •  mv – move a file •  cat - view a file on standard output •  mount – mount a file system on top of a device o  e.g.: />mount –t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock1 /mnt/flash •  smbmount – mount a remote file share o  e.g.: />smbmount //192.168.2.98/wokspace /mnt/workspace –o username=Mike,password=mike •  sync – synchronize cached files in RAM to disk    Network ifconfig The ifconfig command is used to view and edit network information such as IP address and subnet mask  •  ifconfig eth0 – display IP address and other network parameters •  ifconfig eth0 [ip] netmask [netmask] – Set IP address to [ip] and netmask to [netmask] •  ifconfig –h – display help on the ifconfig command uClinuxCommands.pdf C-1  5-Sep-05
 route The route command is used to view or edit network routing information.  •  route – display network routing table •  route add default gw [gateway] – Add the default gateway to the routing table •  route -h – diplay help for the route command  mii-tool The mii-tool command is used to get and set low-level physical information from the network interface, such as speed and duplex.  •  mii-tool – display the physical Ethernet properties •  mii-tool –v – display more information (verbose) •  mii-tool –v –v – most verbose setting (includes raw dump of PHY chip registers in Hex) •  mii-tool –restart – reset the physical Ethernet interface chip •  mii-tool –h – help for the mii-tool command    Date/Time date The date command will show or set the system date as kept by the kernel while running.  This date will reset every time the board is rebooted.  If you would like to keep the time accurate, you must use a battery backed RTC with the “hwclock” utility.  •  date – view the current system date •  date [MMDDhhmm[YYYY]] – set the system date time   System proc file system The proc file system provides diagnostics for the entire system.  To view the diagnostics use the cat command in the /proc directory.  •  cat /proc/cpuinfo – displays stats about the CPU brand and speed •  cat /proc/interrupts – statistics on interrupts •  cat /proc/mounts – information on mounted filesystems uClinuxCommands.pdf C-2  5-Sep-05
•  more…browse through the /proc directory and subdirectories to see more diagnostics.  ps The ps command shows information about the current running processes in the system.  •  ps – display information including the process id of each process in the system.  shutdown The shutdown command is the only way to correctly shutdown uClinux without causing potential file system damage.  The shutdown command will attempt to gracefully close all processes and eventually kill them, synchronize the cached file system information to disk and terminate operation.  •  shutdown –h now – Shutdown the system and hang in an endless loop (requires hard reset to boot up again) •  shutdown –r now – Shutdown the system and perform a software reset, if Autorun is on uClinux will boot up again.  •  shutdown – display usage information for the shutdown command uClinuxCommands.pdf C-3  5-Sep-05
         Appendix E    uClinux Drivers  M5208EVBUM.pdf E  1-Sep-5
 uClinux Device Drivers  The following sections describe the various device drivers in uClinux that are importance to user application development.  There are other drivers available in the /dev directory that are not included in this list because they are exclusively used by the kernel.  ips (IPS) The “ips” driver has been developed by Intec to support the run time library under uClinux.  The internal peripheral system (ips) driver provides user applications with access to the hardware registers.  User applications should never use the ips driver directly, but instead simply call functions from the run time library provided.  mtd[x]/mtdblock[x] (External Flash) The memory technology device (mtd) driver is for accessing the external flash device.   On the Wildfire board this device provides access to the on board serial flash.  To make use of the mtd driver a file system should be mounted on top of it.  The Journaling Flash File System (JFFS2) is designed for these type of flash devices which require sector erases before writes.  To use the mtd driver issue the following command at either the command line or from the rc file (done by default with the M5208EVB as shipped in the etc/rc file).  1.  Create a directory if not already created (/>mkdir /mnt/flash)  2.  Mount the file system (/>mount –t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock1 /mnt/flash) 3.  To erase a device use the raw char driver (/>eraseall /dev/mtd1).  This will erase all data on the device and is in fact like formatting the device.  For the M5208EVB the partitions are as follows: 1.  mtd0, mtdblock0 – 256K dBUG partition 2.  mtd1, mtdblock1 – 640K JFFS2 partition 3.  mtd2, mtdblock2 – 1152K compressed Kernel image  Only the mtd1 partition should be used in most cases.  Altering the other partitions could cause problems booting the board and will require the board to be re-flashed with the BDM pod.  Once mounted the directory can be used like any other and will retain its data between power cycles. uClinuxDeviceDrivers.pdf D-1  27-Jun-05
 ram (RAM) The ram driver allows a file system to be mounted in RAM.  A special RAM disk is created by default on startup from the rc script when uClinux boots.  The /var directory will boast fast access, but will not retain its contents between system reboots.  It is not likely that a user application will need to use this driver directly, but instead simply use the /var directory for fast file access.  ttyS (COM Ports) The ttyS drivers provide access to the serial ports under uClinux.  The ttyS driver can be configured in many ways to allow ASSCII and binary communications.  The number after the ttyS represents which port to use.  •  ttyS0 – uart0 – COM1 (used as console) •  ttyS1 – uart1 – COM2 •  ttyS2 – uart2 – COM3  See the uDemoSerial for a comprehensive example on using the serial device driver under uClinux.   uClinuxDeviceDrivers.pdf D-2  27-Jun-05
