AM335xStarterKitHardwareUsersGuide -Texas Instruments Embedded Processors Wiki Page 2of 22 AND DISCLAIMERS 9 ANNEX  Introduction This document provides the design information on the AM335x processor based Starter Kit (TMDSSK3358) to users. Description The AM335x Starter Kit (TMDSSK3358) can be used as an evaluation and development platform for low cost AM335x based solutions and networking platforms. The embedded emulation logic allows emulation and debug using standard development tools such as TI’s Code Composer Studio by just using the supplied USB cable. It is not intended for use in end products. All of the design information is freely available and can be used as the basis for the development of an AM335x based product. EVM System View TMDSSK3358 is partitioned into two different boards: the main board (processor, peripherals & the main power supply) and the LCD Carrier board (LCD and touch screen). The TMDSSK3358 main board and the LCD carrier board mounted are mounted together using 10mm standoffs. The TMDSSK3358 main board has dimensions of 5.257” x 2.798 “and that of the LCD Carrier board is 4.963” x 2.798 “. The Top and the Bottom side views of the TMDSSK3358 are shown in the pictures provided below. Top view mhtml:file://C:\Users\peggy_kraemer\Desktop\AM335xStarterKit_Web.mht 9/4/2012

AM335xStarterKitHardwareUsersGuide -Texas Instruments Embedded Processors Wiki Page 6of 22 Figure 4: TMDSSK3358 Block Diagram Processor The AM3358ZCZ processor is the central processor for TMDSSK3358. All the resources on the board surround the AM3358 processor to provide development capabilities for hardware and software. See the AM3358 datasheet and TRM for the details about the processor. There are system configuration signals, SYSBOOT, that can be set on the EVM to define some startup parameters on the AM335x processor. See the Configuration/Setup section later for more details. Clocks The main clock for the processor is derived from a 24MHz crystal. An on-board oscillator in the AM3358 generates the base clock and subsequent module clocks as needed within the AM3358 processor. A 32kHz clock for the RTC on the AM3358 is derived from a 32kHz crystal on board. Reset Signals Power On Reset to the AM335x is driven by the PMIC. SYS_ WARMRESETn is a signal running to mhtml:file://C:\Users\peggy_kraemer\Desktop\AM335xStarterKit_Web.mht 9/4/2012

AM335xStarterKitHardwareUsersGuide -Texas Instruments Embedded Processors Wiki Page 7of 22 several peripherals and AM335x which performs a reset on those peripherals. SYS_WARMRESETn is asserted by a pushbutton on the main board and is used to force a reset of the AM335x. AM335x can also pull down on the RESET_INOUTn signal to cause the SYS_ WARMRESETn line to go active. The RTC_PORZ reset signal for the RTC section is derived using AND Gates. Power The power input to TMDSSK3358 is from a 5V Power Supply. This 5V power is provided as power input to the Power Manager TPS65910A3. The power requirements of the processor are taken care of by the Power Manager IC TPS65910A3. The Power ON LED "D5" is ON if the PMIC output power VAUX33 is available ( to indicate the active status of the PMIC). The power sequencing requirements of the AM335X processor (see the AM335x datasheet) are handled automatically by the TPS65910A3 PMIC. Note: When powering the TMDSSK3358 EVM, always use the supplied power supply (CUI/V- Infinity Part Number EMSA050300-P6P-SZ, Model 3A-182WP05) or equivalent model having output voltage of +5VDC and output current max 3.0 Amps. Power Management IC TMDSSK3358 uses the TPS65910A3 power management IC. The I2C0 on AM335x is used to control the TPS65910A PMIC. The PWRON input of PMIC is connected to an external push-button. The built-in debouncing time defines a minimum button press duration that is required for button press detection. Any button press duration which is lower than this value is ignored, considered an accidental touch. For AM335x, the following power supplies from the TPS65910A are used.

Unless otherwise indicated, this EVM is not a finished electrical equipment and not intended for consumer use. It is intended solely for use for preliminary feasibility evaluation in laboratory/development environments by technically qualified electronics experts who are familiar with the dangers and application risks associated with handling electrical mechanical components, systems and subsystems. It should not be used as all or part of a finished end product. Your Sole Responsibility and Risk. You acknowledge, represent and agree that: 1. You have unique knowledge concerning Federal, State and local regulatory requirements (including but not limited to Food and Drug Administration regulations, if applicable) which relate to your products and which relate to your use (and/or that of your employees, affiliates, contractors or designees) of the EVM for evaluation, testing and other purposes. 2. You have full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety and compliance of your products with all such laws and other applicable regulatory requirements, and also to assure the safety of any activities to be conducted by you and/or your employees, affiliates, contractors or designees, using the EVM. Further, you are responsible to assure that any interfaces (electronic and/or mechanical) between the EVM and any human body are designed with suitable isolation and means to safely limit accessible leakage currents to minimize the risk of electrical shock hazard. 3. You will employ reasonable safeguards to ensure that your use of the EVM will not result in any property damage, injury or death, even if the EVM should fail to perform as described or expected. 4. You will take care of proper disposal and recycling of the EVM's electronic components and packing materials Certain Instructions. It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and the output voltage range of -10 V to 15 V. Exceeding these EVM ratings may cause property damage, personal injury or death. If there are questions concerning these ratings please contact a TI field representative prior to connecting interface electronics including input power and intended loads. Any loads applied outside of the specified output range may result in unintended and/or inaccurate operation and/or possible permanent damage to the EVM and/or interface electronics. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification, please contact a TI field representative. During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 60°C as long as the input and output are maintained at a normal ambient operating temperature. These components include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors which can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide.
