Getting Started Manual 92.2.1 Prototyping Board Features• Power LED—The power LED lights whenever power is connected to the PrototypingBoard.• Reset Switch—A momentary-contact, normally open switch is connected directly to theBL1810’s /RESET_IN pin. Pressing the switch forces a hardware reset of the system.• I/O Switches and LEDs—Four momentary-contact, normally open switches are con-nected to the PB2–PB5 pins of the Rabbit 2000 microprocessor on the BL1810, andmay be read as inputs by sample applications.Four LEDs are connected to the PA1–PA4 pins of the of the Rabbit 2000 microproces-sor on the BL1810, and may be driven as output indicators by sample applications.• Prototyping Area—A generous prototyping area has been provided for the installationof through-hole components. Several areas for surface-mount devices are also avail-able. (Note that there are SMT device pads on both top and bottom of the PrototypingBoard.)• Extension Headers—The complete pin sets of the BL1810 are duplicated at these twosets of headers. Developers can solder wires directly into the appropriate holes, or, formore flexible development, 40-pin header strips can be soldered into place. SeeFigure A-1 for the header pinouts.• RS-232—Two 3-wire or one 5-wire RS-232 serial port are available on the PrototypingBoard. Refer to the Prototyping Board schematic (090-0088) for additional details.A 10-pin 0.1-inch spacing header strip is installed at J1 to permit connection of a ribboncable leading to a standard DE-9 serial connector.Downloaded from Elcodis.com electronic components distributor
