このドキュメントの内容

1. Out of the Box

The NXP analog product development boards provide an easy-to-use platform for evaluating NXP products. The boards support a range of analog, mixed-signal and power solutions. They incorporate monolithic integrated circuits and system-in-package devices that use proven high-volume technology. NXP products offer longer battery life, a smaller form factor, reduced component counts, lower cost, and improved performance in powering state-of-the-art systems.

This page will guide you through the process of setting up and using the KITPF09FRDMEVM board.

1.1 Kit Contents/Packing List

2.1 Board Features

  • Phoenix (10 mm) male connector or jack connector for power supply input
  • Phoenix (10 mm) male connectors for PMIC switcher outputs
  • Header connectors for I/O configuration
  • Selectable power input for programming
  • Access pin connectors for accessing inputs and outputs
  • Indicator LEDs red and green LEDs to indicate signal or regulator status
  • Blue LED to indicate that the OTP 8 V burning voltage is set
  • Advanced system monitoring via the KL25Z MCU
  • Embedded USB to I²C protocol for easy connection to the software GUI through the KL25Z MCU

2.2 Board Description

The hardware of the kit consists of the KITPF09FRDMEVB program board embedded with a KL25Z microcontroller, and the USB cable required to connect the board to the PC.

The KITPF09FRDMEVB valuation board features a socket that allows the user to fuse an individual PF09 Family using the device’s two time programmable (OTP) feature without extra tools. Connectors, jumpers and switches on the board can be used to configure an evaluation environment that meets specific design requirements. The board also contains LEDs and test points that provide a means of monitoring performance in real time. An emulation mode allows the user to test as many configurations as needed before programming the part.

The KL25Z is soldered on the bottom side of the KITPF09FRDMEVB board. The role of the KL25Z is to manage I²C communication between the KITPF09FRDMEVB board and the GUI installed on the PC. The KL25Z draws power either from the USB cable connected to the PC or from the battery supply (when not connected to the GUI).

3.1 Configure the Hardware

The procedure for setting up the KITPF09FRDMEVB program board is as follows:

  1. Make sure that the board has the jumpers and switches configured in their default positions. The default debug configuration enables the board to be fully controlled by the KL25Z MCU (via I²C) and the GUI. Section 4.4 shows the default jumpers and switches configuration for the PF09 Family.
  2. Connect the power supply to VIN-J47 (Phoenix connector - 10 mm). The power supply should be set to a nominal value of 5 V.

    3. Note: When connecting loads to the boards, check that the J54 jumper is in Open position to avoid drawing current from the USB line. Place jumper J54 in Close position to supply 5 V from the USB line.

  3. Make sure the USB cable between the board and the PC is securely connected. This connection is critical because the USB port serves as a communication channel between the PC and the KL25Z MCU onboard, and also provides voltages and references to some onboard circuits.

The default debug configuration enables the board to be fully controlled by the KL25Z MCU (via I²C) and the GUI. Figure 2 shows the default jumper and switch configuration for PF09. See below for PF09 default jumpers and switches configuration.
