| - | Quick Start: The KIT will be shipped with mounted Ellepticmotor and installed Testprogramm |
| - | Documentation: Visual Basic, Access VBA and
Assembler sample Files for PWM, Serial Com, I²C, D/A and A/D Conversion,
how Elliptecmotor is working..Schematics...inlude other ideas: 5 Cent A/D
converter, using I²C EEProm ST24C16, read and write EEProm with an PC via
RS232, an idea to measure capacities (sorry: complete Documentation (>100 pages) is in German Language) |
| - | serial Port with Maxim 232 for serial communication |
| - | D/A converter with MAX538X, I2C programmable |
| - | 2 Pinheads for Port 1 and Port 3, Reset connector |
| - | ISP programmable via serial port with SS Signal support |
| - | IRF FET Driver for PWM |
| - | 7805 / 78S05 regulator |
| - | Atmel compatible AT89ISP Pinheader or use integrated Serial-ISP interface for programming |
| - | This Board can be used for Flash programming with GMS Flash Software via RS232 |
| - | Easy IDE: upload your program via ser. Port (no additional Programmer needed) and start the device |
| Complete use of the SPI Port is possible because the integrated Serial-SPI inteface can be disabled (tri stated) via serial Port. Only one Jumper might be set to disable the On Board Serial-ISP interface if the microcontroller program needs to communicate via Serial Port after programming when the host Software is using the RTS signal. | |
| - | optional: connector for optical encoders, INT 0 or INT1 interrupt support |
With this board you can test the microcontoller and learn more
about the LP2052/4052 PWM functions, Elliptec piezo actuators, SPI or I2C
Programming. The In Sytem Programming allows you to download
your programming code via Serial port and to restart the
microcontroller. As an example, you are able to step the elliptec actuator
forward and backward through host software via serial port. The hardware
supports current measurement of the elliptec actuator with the Maxim 8-bit DA
converter and also optical encoders that you can find out the best
hardware-software-solution for your requirements.
As Atmel states on their hompage: Your designs will give your more than you
expected...
You can find more details about the microcontroller in the Atmel
specifications: ( Atmel specs ).
Here you can find more details about
the elliptec motor: (
elliptec Resonant Actuators ).
Flash Programmer Software
Programming the flash through serial Port is controlled by GMS software running on the host. The software supports writing the flash memory (hex files), Lock bits and user fuses in SPI /ISP programming mode. The software can handle the RST and SPI signals of the microcontroller. The user must set one jumper to program the non volatile Flash code memory of the device. Programming mode ist displayed with one additional LED.
This PCB also supports Atmel compatible ISP header. That means that you can use the Atmel ISP Programming Software ATMELISP.
