LAUNCHXL-F28379D Overview

•

J3 and J7 connectors are labeled incorrectly on the backside silkscreen. Refer the Rev 1.1 schematic

for the proper signal locations on the connector

Revision 2.0:

A revision was made to resolve the layout issues present on revisions 1.1. In addition to the fixes for

aforementioned issues, additional changes were made to the schematic and layout to improve available

features and increase usability.

•

User LEDs and current limiting resistor values were changed to prevent the LEDs from being too bright

to look at directly.

•

The CAN signal header J12 was shifted towards the center of the board and the silkscreen properly

aligned. PGND was removed and replaced with GND for the proper grounding of the CAN signals.

•

J11 and J13 were removed and replaced with a 0Ω resistor selection tree for routing between the

BoosterPack headers and the backside high-density connector J9. For more information on how to

configure these resistors for the desired routing, see Section 5.5.

•

Additional EMIF1 signals were routed to J9 to enable SDRAM support. These signals are also routed

to the BoosterPack headers. As such, these signals have a resistor selection network for routing the

signals to either the BoosterPack headers, J9 or both. For the information on how to configure these

resistors for the desired routing, see Section 5.5.

•

An additional jumper, J16, was added to the lower left corner of the board for an additional connection

point for supplying +5 V externally.

•

ADC input signal conditioning circuit was updated for proper operation under additional operating

conditions. C4 is now 180 pF; R60/R61 are changed to 10k-Ω and are placed between the VOUT

signal of U13 to the VOCM of U1.

•

Backside silkscreen for J3 and J7 have been corrected and reflect the proper signals at the noted

location on the connector.

Installation

The F28379D LaunchPad is supported in Code Composer Studio.

3.1

Code Composer Studio

3.1.1

Download the Required Software

Code Composer Studio IDE is available for free without any restriction when used with the XDS100v2

debug probe on the C2000 LaunchPad. The software can be downloaded from the C2000 LaunchPad

page at ti.com/launchpad. At this site, you can also download a copy of c2000Ware that includes drivers,

examples, and other support software needed to get started.

3.1.2

Install the Software

Once downloaded, install Code Composer Studio and the C2000Ware package.

3.1.3

Install the Hardware

After Code Composer Studio is installed, plug the supplied USB cable into the C2000 LaunchPad board

and into an available USB port on your computer.

Windows® will automatically detect the hardware and ask you to install software drivers. Let Windows run

a search for the drivers and automatically install them. After Windows successfully installs the drivers for

the integrated XDS100v2 debug probe, your LaunchPad is now ready for use.
