Newbie - MOD5234

Post by fiorio »

Am I missing something or is there no document which describes the pins coming off the module. The document MOD5234.pdf under \docs\platform has a table but no decsriptions, similar to the MOD5234 PinIO Class App note.

Am I to refer to Freescale documentation for this kind of info?

Thanks in advance,

Frank

Frank,

The product page on the module has lots of docs, including a datasheet with pinouts.

See:
C:\Nburn\docs\platform\Mod5234.pdf -- pages 9 and 10 list J1, J2 pinout
C:\Nburn\MOD5234\include\pinconstant.h -- lists most of the config options for each pin

More generally, don't miss:
C:\Nburn\docs\DocumentationOverview
C:\C:\Nburn\docs\NetworkProgrammersGuide\NNDKprogMan.pdf

Thanks for the inputs, most of the documentation sited contains lists and tables without descriptions, so what I did was I compared the pins made available on the MOD5234 with the MCF5234 datasheet and hopefully their usage is described there.

(I'm new to Coldfire in general)

Hi Frank,

The pin/signal descriptions can be involved. I would look at the NetBurner datasheet, note the signal name, then look it up in the Freescale MCF5234/35 Manual (in your \nburn\docs\manual directory). The signal names should be the same, or very similar.
